V Magazine #151 Winter 2024 : Naomi Campbell by Solve Sundsbo
IMAGE | VMAGAZINE.COM

Naomi Campbell remains an unstoppable force. After decades in the modeling game and as a bonafide fashion icon, the British beauty throughout 2024 alone has covered magazines like Harper’s Bazaar France and Vogue Greece. All this in addition to becoming the face of mega fashion brands like Boss and Vivienne Westwood. V Magazine is celebrating Naomi Campbell with the unveiling of its Winter 2024 Issue #151 installment. Across a duo of covers, Naomi appears before the lens of photographer Sølve Sundsbø. The Norwegian photographer captures Campbell’s majestic profile for the newsstand cover (below). In the special couture edition (after the jump), Naomi is styled by Gro Curtis in a full Dolce & Gabbana look.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

V Magazine sabotaged the newsstand buyer with this… horrid. But an interesting choice to have Naomi Campbell on the cover amid all the controversy regarding her charity – and in Dolce & Gabbana, of all brands. Gotta love her persistence,” immediately voiced aracic.

“The profile cover looks stunning but no. It’s interesting that there has been so many people in the industry canceled over the years, but Naomi is still standing,” Royal-Galliano chimed in.

“I used to love V Magazine, but this is a hard pass. It has been ages since they had a worthy issue. Naomi as a subject just feels irrelevant,” critiqued forum member ReneSanchez.

Also far from impressed was oaklee91. “Nothing works. She needs to retire,” they exclaimed.

“The cover with the Dolce & Gabbana lace veil is the strongest cover out of the two. I’m not hating on this. I am genuinely sat here feeling like this is the best Naomi Campbell has looked in what feels like AGES! She suits those Dolce & Gabbana pieces perfectly, and I love how chic, sharp, and sexy this all is,” voiced vogue28.

V Magazine #148 Summer 2024 : Anne Hathaway by Chris Colls
IMAGE | VMAGAZINE.COM

The fashion industry continues to embrace Anne Hathaway like there’s no tomorrow. In such a short space of time we’ve encountered the American actress down at the newsstand as a Vanity Fair cover star and sat back and watched as Donatella Versace welcomed her muse as the face of the Versace Icons campaign (again) for 2024. V Magazine is the latest to jump on the Hathaway bandwagon, with the unveiling of the publication’s Summer 2024 covers. Via the lens of Chris Colls and styled by Gro Curtis, the Academy Award-winning talent poses for the first time as a V cover star and partakes in a gender-bending shoot across a twosome of dynamic covers. In cover one (below), Anne suits up in head-to-toe Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda and dons a look from the viral Maison Margiela Artisanal collection in the second cover (after the jump).

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“I do not understand Hathaway’s appeal but the cover with the Maison Margiela is beautiful. Love everything about it,” enthused MModa.

“What in the graphic designer hell is that font and the amateurish typography? It looks as if the font didn’t make it through the export so InDesign put Myriad Pro in its place. I can’t even look at the image,” shrieked forum member RaisinBoy.

Also quick to suggest V‘s art direction isn’t up to scratch was thiago, commenting: “Back in the day at art school, I always had V Magazine on my mood board. Now their font choices are pure trash. It absolutely kills the cover shot (which I’m not really buying t- same styling as the runway once again). Can we have Anne in Versace?”

“Neither of the two covers rock my world but I can massively appreciate Anne Hathaway’s ability to adapt and become something else via the lens of different photographers. Not many actresses/celebrities would be willing to participate in such a shoot,” voiced vogue28.

V Magazine #147 Spring 2024 : Penélope Cruz by Jack Bridgland

If you’ve paid a visit to your local newsstand over recent months, you’ve no doubt bumped into Penélope Cruz. After all, the Spanish actress has appeared on a whole multitude of magazine covers of late – including Vanity Fair Italia, Vogue Spain and American ELLE. Penélope now surfaces as V Magazine‘s latest cover star, 13 years after she last covered the American fashion publication. For Issue #147 Spring 2024, photographer Jack Bridgland and stylist Gro Curtis team up to profile the Chanel brand ambassador who dons a range of pieces from the French fashion house (in addition to pieces from Fleur du Mal, LaQuan Smith and David Koma) across two covers, for the 90s-inspired cover story.

“I like Penélope and she is a stunning woman, but what in the [Richard] Avedon meets Missy Elliott is this direction?” asked dontbeadrag.

“Penny from the block,” shared forum member thenewclassic.

“She looks stunning. But I hate the composition of the cover (below),” stated mikel.

MON commented: “I understand the vision but the execution is a bit meh. Rather than being a strong cover image, it feels like an editorial shot made a cover.”

Everyone else, was completely sold over the outcome. “The camellia cover is a must have. Penélope is everywhere lately, and I’m not complaining,” raved KoV.

“Honestly, I just adore this woman so much that I find it a completely impossible task to take a disliking to anything she’s affiliated with! This is no exception. I’m able to appreciate, at the very least, how different the concept is from say… Penelope’s recent cover of ELLE,” enthused vogue28.
