Harper’s Bazaar Italia December 2024 : Anja Rubik by Willy Vanderperre

Change remains in the air at Harper’s Bazaar Italia HQ. Earier this year, Massimo Russo was named editor-in-chief (having succeeded Daria Veledeeva). Stefano Tonchi became editorial director and Paul Sinclaire was appointed fashion editor at large. The first issue under the new team in September gave us a whole plethora of covers lensed by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin. To close out 2024, Harper’s Bazaar Italia rounds out the year with an Anja Rubik cover offering. The Polish beauty is put before the lens of photographer Willy Vanderperre. The Belgian lensman captured Rubik in black and white for the occasion, with cover shoot stylist Paul Sinclaire selecting a look from Anthony Vaccarello’s Fall 2024 Saint Laurent collection.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Hum… I don’t know, but I think that’s more of a NO than a YES for me!” sighed DK92.

“It’s just too weird of a pose,” kokobombon chimed in.

EDEN12 wasn’t best impressed either. “I like Anja Rubik but I’m starting to get a little tired of the sexy-gollum posing she does all the time,” they critiqued.

“Anja is a beautiful woman but seems to be completely burnt out as a model. She has been phoning it in for a long time. Maybe she should retire or disappear for some time, and come back when she has something to offer besides the usual sad face and same set of poses,” voiced avonlea002.

Yet not everyone was left so dismayed. “I love it, and I love Anja. I actually like the oddity of the cover pose, it’s unexpected,” jeremydante defended.

“The covers of Harper’s Bazaar Italia had become so stale, that the sight of this is much-welcomed,” vogue28 appreciated. “The use of the gold masthead with the black and white feels very celebratory and festive. Plus, I will never tire over the sight of Anja Rubik!”

Saint Laurent S/S 2025 : Gwyneth Paltrow by David Sims
IMAGE | FACEBOOK/SAINTLAURENT

Anthony Vaccarello sure knows how to pick em’ when it comes to casting the advertising campaigns of Saint Laurent. Since joining the ranks as creative director of the fabled French fashion house in 2016, Vaccarello has successfully secured the likes of Catherine Deneuve, Kate Moss, Charlotte Rampling, Jerry Hall, and Diana Ross (to name a very select few) as the face and embodiment of the house founded by Monsieur Yves Saint Laurent in 1961. Next up as the face of Saint Laurent is Gwyneth Paltrow. Vaccarello taps the American actress and Goop founder for the Spring 2025 campaign offering, complete with photography from David Sims. Paltrow suits up in a sharp black tuxedo jacket in the campaign photo, gazing down Sims’ lens sporting slicked-back hair and a minimal makeup look.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“I’m into it,” shared forum member lelaid upon checking out the campaign.

“I’m always a sucker for Gwyneth Paltrow, especially when she’s not in Brentwood mom mode. I like her for Saint Laurent,” approved KoV.

“I’m just appreciative that it’s not another black and white studio-shot campaign image from David Sims for Saint Laurent. Personally, I could take or leave Gwyneth Paltrow but I don’t hate this. Paltrow looks good, I like the slicked-back hair and the sharpness of the blazer,” vogue28 voiced.

Ihhbl commented: “Gwyneth Paltrow is looking so rich here. I’m almost able to ignore the weird fitting of the blazer!”

Not everyone, however, was so forgiving. “The lighting in this image of Gwyneth is terrible. I can’t believe David Sims shot it! And Gwyneth for YSL? Are they really that desperate now?” asked style_expert.

“A piece of rotten wood is sexier than Gwyneth Paltrow,” Alquimista critiqued.

Vogue Czechoslovakia December 2024 : Rosie Huntington-Whiteley by Kulesza + Pik & Yilan Hua by Luka Booth
IMAGE | VOGUE.CZ

Vogue Czechoslovakia perhaps doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. Since coming onto the market in September 2018, the magazine has remained one of the best and most creative books in the business. Over the past twelve months, covers starring the likes of Alessandra Ambrosio, Monica Bellucci, Ashley Graham, and Gwendoline Christie have commanded our attention (for reasons both good and bad). Vogue Czechoslovakia has our undivided attention once again, as Danica Kovarova welcomes models Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Yilan Hua as cover girls. Photographic duo Kulesza + Pik captured Huntington-Whiteley, who serves face in the profile cover shot, wearing Saint Laurent and Tiffany & Co. Joined by a dove, Yilan Hua posed for Luka Booth and sits pretty in Christian Dior.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“It’s a beautiful photo, but kind of amateurish. As much as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is a beautiful woman, I think her beauty is very plasticized (in both senses),” said DK92.

“I like Rosie, I like closeups but something is just missing here. Not sure what,” Srdjan chimed in.

Kokobombon wasn’t all too impressed either. “It looks like a supplement cover,” they pointed out.

“Rosie’s cover should’ve been a tad less zoomed in,” voiced WAVES. “The Yilan Hua cover without that bird/dove prop would’ve been so much better!”

“These covers are not light at all. Both of them wearing black and looking serious,” Alquimista critiqued.

Yet not everyone felt so underwhelmed. “Rosie Huntington-Whiteley all day, every day. We don’t see her enough on the cover of fashion magazines, IMO. The cover is fantastic, usually hate this type of profile cover shot but it’s all working for me here,” confessed vogue28.

Katie Grand and Bryan Grey Yambao at Perfect Magazine sure do know how to generate some buzz. The twosome kick-started 2024 by bringing Bella Hadid out of retirement. Supermodels Linda Evagelista, Christy Turlington, Naomi Campbell, and Kate Moss were ushered in as cover stars for Issue 6. Issue 6.5 went to Rihanna (as you’ve never seen her before). Issue 7 saw the Barbadian songstress swiftly welcomed back as cover star. The next global sensation to take to the cover of Perfect Magazine (this time for Issue 8) is Selena Gomez. The American singer, actress, and beauty mogul poses for photographer Morgan Maher on location in New York. Katie Grand styled Gomez over six collectible covers. Grand selected looks from DKNY, Saint Laurent, Simone Rocha, Valentino, Christopher Kane for Self-Portrait, and Self-Portrait for the occasion.

“Selena Gomez is always a NO for me,” stated DK92 upon digesting the covers.

“Always for me too,” replied vogue28. “On the magazine cover front, Selena via the lens of Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott for American Vogue [April 2017] remains the one to beat. I like the first cover shot. Perhaps I could have done without the juvenile circular art direction.”

Amelia Gray has become an unstoppable force within the world of fashion. The industry continues to embrace the all-American model like there’s no tomorrow. In such a short space of time, Gray has covered Vogue Adria and W Korea while becoming the face of mega brands like Michael Kors and Balenciaga. Amelia’s latest addition to her ever-growing portfolio is yet another Vogue cover for 2024. Shin Kwang-ho is the latest industry heavyweight to endorse Amelia Gray, welcoming her as a Vogue Korea cover girl for November 2024. Across a total of four covers, Amelia poses before the lens of Luigi & Iango. In each of the cover images, the photographic duo capture Gray in an array of Saint Laurent looks, as selected for the occasion by cover shoot stylist Eunji Shin.

“The only exciting thing about these covers is Isabelle Huppert’s name,” shrieked avonlea002 the moment the covers struck.

“Oh, the second cover hurts my eyes,” expressed phungnam96.

“The third cover is atrocious. Amelia Gray doesn’t have the legs to pull it off. I like the second one, which fits her color palette,” svpernova chimed in.

“I can’t stand Amelia Gray, I don’t know why. Oh no, I do, because she seems extremely bland with nearly zero skills,” critiqued forum member audace.

Yet not everyone was left so disheartened. “The art direction is painful but the first cover is good!” Lola701 admitted.

“I like the first cover, particularly the color scheme,” admired kokobombon.

“The first two covers with Amelia Gray are the strongest out of the four. This might just be the best I’ve seen from her in terms of Vogue covers. The first is gorgeous, absolutely love those muted colors, everything is working – from the art direction to the beauty styling,” vogue28 enthused.

Saint Laurent F/W 2024.25 : Kate Moss, Charlotte Rampling & More by Juergen Teller
IMAGE | FACEBOOK/SAINTLAURENT

You’re no doubt completely and fully aware that Anthony Vaccarello likes himself some Juergen Teller as Saint Laurent campaign photographer. Vaccarello has called upon the famed German photographer to lens the historic French fashion house’s campaign imagery on umpteen occasions throughout his tenure as creative director. More recently, Teller photographed Chloë Sevigny for the Fall 2024 campaign offering. For the Saint Laurent Winter 2024 installment, Juergen Teller is back to capture a handful of Vaccarello’s muses. Those muses include Kate Moss, Charlotte Rampling, Ajus Samuel, Anja Rubik, Binx Walton, Awar Odhiang, and Penelope Ternes. The ladies pose within the surroundings of a stylish Art Deco Parisian brasserie in looks from Vaccarello’s chic Saint Laurent collection unveiled in February during Paris Fashion Week.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“So good! I just can’t get enough of Saint Laurent campaigns,” shared fruitbasedsnack.

“Binx! I would have been fine with just Charlotte Rampling and Kate Moss. I don’t mind the other women though. Good campaign, very Louis Vuitton with Madonna by Meisel in the spirit,” Lola701 noted.

“Charlotte, Kate, Anja and Awar were enough for me. Charlotte is definitely the star,” commented GivenchyAddict.

Also in love with the casting was audace: “Kate, Anja and Charlotte Rampling? This casting is perfect!”

Yet not everyone was impressed. “No soul. Aseptic. Lifeless. Empty. Some pictures are just pretty, but there’s nothing behind them. No warmth, no feelings, no passion, no nothing. I don’t know why that is. There’s no soul at all,” Creative critiqued.

“Depressing, and not in a cool way,” chimed in 90sFan.

Juergen Teller remains a firm fave of Anthony Vaccarello. Since 2019, Vaccarello (who became the creative force behind Saint Laurent in 2016) has endorsed the revered German photographer to no end. Campaigns from Teller over the years have featured everyone from new faces like Penelope Ternes to more seasoned models like Freja Beha Erichsen. Teller remains on the books with the unveiling of the Saint Laurent Fall 2024 advertising campaign offering. This time around, the Belgian designer insisted upon Teller pointing his lens toward Chloë Sevigny, who morphs into the ultimate Saint Laurent woman for the occasion. The American actress is captured on location in Paris, decked out in a look from Vaccarello’s Pre-Fall 2024 collection and toting the Sac de Jour handbag.

“I never understood the hype about Chloë Sevigny. In fact, I only found out who she was a few years ago. Here in Brazil at least she is a complete unknown. Terrible campaign,” voiced DK92.

“Saint Laurent campaigns are so boring. You either get drab daylight shots by Teller or B&W studio images from Sims and Sorrenti that all look the same,” pointed out avonlea002.

“I love Chloe Sevigny but she is more Vuitton/Loewe/Celine. She maybe has too much personal style for YSL by Vaccarello,” Lola701 noted.

Yet not everyone was so dismayed. “Fully on board with this,” approved lelaid.

“The second shot is much better. I love Chloë!” GivenchyAddict exclaimed.

Paris is burning, with the Spring 2025 season of Paris Fashion Week in full swing. Running from September 23 until October 1, the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode’s jam-packed schedule grants us a total of 66 physical runway shows and 40 presentations.

Report: Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025

Maria Grazia Chiuri was tasked with opening up Paris Fashion Week, with the first female creative director of Christian Dior looking to the women of the Amazon throughout history (in particular Diana, goddess of the hunt) for inspo. MGC enlisted Artist and archer Sagg Napoli to kick off the show, who shot arrows along the catwalk as models paraded athletic yet feminine silhouettes. It was soon time to head to the Saint Laurent HQ on Rue de Bellechasse, to check out Anthony Vaccarello’s tribute to Monsieur Yves Saint Laurent himself, with the Belgian designer inspired by the late designer’s wardrobe. Models (including Bella Hadid) stormed the oval-shaped runway decked out in an array of oversized suits, trench coats, and bomber jackets.

Day three of Paris Fashion Week started off strong, with Nicolas Di Felice of Courrèges taking up the morning slot. Guests were spaced around a set with a gigantic ocean drum situated in the middle. Models emerged from backstage in Di Felice’s sleek and monochromatic lineup. Mid-day on September 25 and it was time for the industry to bare witness to the first Dries Van Noten show with out the revered Belgian designer at the helm. The Spring 2025 collection was crafted by the in-house design team in Antwerp, offering up boldly layered colors, fabrics, prints, and embroidery. Brightly-mixed patterns and the house’s signature chainmail were on full display at Julien Dossena’s Rabanne showcase. As night fell over the city of Paris on day three, Olivier Rousteing relied upon his essentials and signature pieces, from blazers with dramatic pointy shoulders to structured dresses with cinched waists at Balmain.

The fashion pack gathered to see Chemena Kamali’s highly-anticipated sophomore outing as Chloé creative director, who doubled down on the boho aesthetic and sought inspiration in the true essence of summer. Dramatic bangs and wide-shouldered, cinched waist dresses and blazers graced the runway at Mugler (designed by Casey Cadwallader), as the brand commemorates its 50th anniversary this year. Rick Owens returned to the Palais de Tokyo in Paris for a presentation of epic and otherworldly proportions while Daniel Roseberry once again brought his creative eye and innate flair for couture-level detailing to Schiaparelli.

The best part? There’s so much to look forward to, as we head into the second portion of Paris Fashion Week. Scroll further for theFashionSpot’s hits and misses (so far) from Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025:

“Dries is in good hands. I liked the collection a lot, beautiful ephemeral vibes.” [Olaffo]

“The studio team should be proud. Love the colors, prints, textures and styling. They should just promote someone internally, who knows the language of Dries.” [j02215]

“Leave it to Dries Van Noten to hire a team that can design a strong collection without him. As someone who despises interim collections, I wouldn’t be mad if they just continued like this for the next few years.” [LadyJunon]

See all the looks from the Dries Van Noten Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Rabanne

“Louis Vuitton by Nicholas Ghesquière but with chainmail embroideries and dresses.” [FashionPower]

“A total copy and paste from Nicolas Ghesquière. It could have been executed in a better way.” [badgalcrush]

“Definitely not his best. Some good ideas and I love the pastels, but the silhouettes are very strange. The shapes look dowdy and blobby.” [GoldenPetals]

“Wow, at last Anthony Vaccarello expands his vocabulary. I did not believe he could do it. I think it’s the best collection of his tenure.” [yslforever]

“I can always count on AV to put on a good show. Obsessed with the jacquard in the middle section.” [IsabelMarantBoy]

“I think it’s a great direction. It makes good use of the YSL codes and there’s a sense of camp fun to it that’s basically non-existent in fashion anymore.” [GoldenPetals]

See all the looks from the Saint Laurent Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Courrèges

IMAGE | SPOTLIGHT/LAUNCHMETRICS

“Fashion straight from the morgue. Sad, lifeless, flat, colorless, and cold.” [IloveDiorHomme]

“I’m not feeling it. At this point of Nicolas Di Felice’s tenure, I feel like I’ve seen this collection one hundred times.” [helmutnotdead]

“Lazy. (Di Felice should push him elf beyond self-indulgence of his fandom for his fashion heroes ) and not enough development in fabrics colors and brand product offerings and the image is stale already. Being obsessed with the late 90s/early 00s minimalist gods does not equal a strong point of view.” [PDSFD]

MISS | Christian Dior

“There was nothing new here, even by Maria Grazia Chiuri’s standards. It’s basically everything that Maria has already shown previously. Confused as to why they felt the need to put on a show with this collection? Also, that archery component was the most awkward and bizarre thing ever. So random and what does it have to do with the history of Christian Dior?” [Frederic01]

“MGC is probably the most boring and unimaginative designer ever. Dear lord her shows make me feel sleepy.” [Creative]

“It’s bizarre and boring.” [reese06]

HIT | Mugler

“This is a good collection from Casey Cadwallader! Surprising to actually see some clothes for a summer season at Mugler. For what it’s worth, the spirit of Mugler is there.” [Lola701]

“This might be the most Mugler collection I’ve ever seen since they reanimated the label. The suit jackets are quite stunning.” [GoldenPetals]

“Those first looks are very strong. Those jackets with the pockets are really sharp as a knife.” [Norden]

HIT | Balmain

“I can’t bring myself to dislike any of Olivier Rousteing’s work. There is something very honest and genuine in his creations. He is the embodiment of his work and I can see that it’s a very personal process for him. He is Balmain and it’s nice to see a brand with such longevity similar to Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel.” [tourbillions]

“I think it’s one of his best collections in a while. The hourglass silhouette on the skirts is just gorgeous. Nobody else is producing stuff like this to be sold as RTW.” [Nimsay]

“I love how relaxed the whole thing felt, mostly through the presence of more flou and softer tones.” [Lola701]

MISS | Ganni

“I can’t with this brand.” [Royal-Galliano]

“Can we please please please stop with the mesh polyester organza ALREADY!” [miumeow]

“The first look was fire, but the rest of the collection should be burnt.” [LadyJunon]

HIT | Chloé

“I love it! This is Chloé at its inner sanctum!” [disco54]

“One of the best interpretations of Chloé I’ve seen in YEARS. Chemena was made for this position and it shows, all the girlies will go bananas for those baby doll and empire dresses (and don’t get me started on those pants).” [GERGIN]

“It’s so effective and desirable! Love love love.” [Ihhbl]

MISS | Rick Owens

“I’m so tired of this.” [helmutnotdead]

“Rick’s out of ideas. I can’t believe the kiss heels are still on the runway.” [CincyCritic]

“It’s just a parade of variants of the same ideas Rick Owens has been making in the last years: the platform boots, the monster shoulders, and the ‘turd’ volumes. This feels like rejected versions of them all, condensed into one collection. The show was also in the same place, with the same fog machines, the same contact lenses worn by models, the same people throwing flower petals… the same everything.” [jeanclaude]

HIT | Issey Miyake

“This man is truly gifted. 10/10” [GivenchyAddict]

“Best of the season so far!” [Kanzai]

“Well executed volumes and playful silhouettes, that’s how you make fashion fun.” [philophile]

MISS | Loewe

“This was boring for being in your tenth year at Loewe.” [youthinasia]

“I thought the collection would never end. So boring and it seems JW Anderson wasn’t able to explore good concepts. I hated those volumes and prints. There was some good leather work and tailoring but meh…” [thiago]

“Very weak. I’m disappointed.” [ghostwriter10549]

HIT | Schiaparelli

“This looks pretty fabulous and desirable.” [TianCouture]

“I love it. Feels like his most ready-to-wear outing yet for the ready-to-wear line, which is good. Strong casting, too.” [Mr-Dale]

“I really love the oversized Couture Hoodies. I love the contre-emploi of things here. Everything seems to be an elevated version of something very casual. There’s nothing new but it feels somehow fresh and now. The fabrication is really exceptional. A lot can be said about Schiaparelli by Roseberry but the standards are at an all time high! The attention to details down to the buttons is deserving of an applause. It screams quality.” [Lola701]

MISS | Acne Studios

IMAGE | SPOTLIGHT/LAUNCHMETRICS

“Temu Loewe.” [youthinasia]

“I will say this every time they present a collection: what happened to this brand is embarrassing. Years ago, this was a cool attainable brand, similar to A.P.C and Ami but somehow things went left and never came back to what they were. This mess looks no different.” [Yasouss]

“Complicated for the sake of being complicated.” [Cocteau Stone]

Right now, we remain the euphoria and bliss of Paris Fashion Week. Already, we’ve bared witness to Maria Grazia Chiuri infuse sport and fashion (once again) at Christian Dior, sat back, and watched Anthony Vaccarello of Saint Laurent take a deep dive into the wardrobe of Monsieur Yves Saint Laurent himself and reimagine the late designer’s wardrobe for the modern woman. Fashion met beauty at Olivier Rousteing’s Balmain presentation and Chemena Kamali’s sophomore outing as Chloé creative director saw the German designer double down on the boho aesthetic.

Make no mistake this season of Paris Fashion is a one to watch. Scroll further for part one of theFashionSpot’s highlights from Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025:
