Harper’s Bazaar Italia has undergone some major restructuring over recent months. Massimo Russo was named editor-in-chief (succeeding Daria Veledeeva). Stefano Tonchi became editorial director. Paul Sinclaire was appointed fashion editor at large last month. Creative director Marc Ascoli was replaced by Lee Swillingham and Stuart Spalding. The first issue under the new team last month gave us a whole plethora of covers lensed by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin. Taking to the cover of Harper’s Bazaar Italia for November 2024 is Libby Bennett. The British model poses for photographer Alasdair McLellan across a duo of covers, centered around the theme of youth. Styled by Alice Goddard, Bennett wears looks from Christian Dior and Louis Vuitton in the two vibrant cover photographs.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Please bring back Marc Ascoli. These Suburbia guys are just not it,” critiqued GivenchyAddict of the magazine’s new creative director duo.

“BringBackAscoli,” pleaded ellarchivist.

“The change of editor-in-chief immediately resulted in a downgrade in covers,” noted TashaRose.

Srdjan confessed: “Not a fan of the covers this month!”

“Alasdair is so BORING!” DK92 declared.

“After last month’s Inez & Vinoodh offering, this feels like a setback. Nevertheless, I do like how vibrant and fresh these covers are. There’s zero denying the images are perfect for an issue centered around the theme of youth. Very vibrant and youthful,” voiced vogue28.

You will never EVER hear us complaining over the sight of Angelina Jolie here at theFashionSpot. Whether she is commanding our attention as the face of Tom Ford Beauty, oozing old-Hollywood glamour on major red carpets across the globe, or showing us her wild side via the covers of CR Fashion Book – we stan the American actress, filmmaker, and humanitarian hard. Ahead of the release of Netflix’s “Maria” on December 11 (in the US), Angelina Jolie appears on the cover of Vogue Mexico for December 2024. Complete with styling from Stella Greenspan, Jolie gazes down the lens of photographer Dan Martensen in a little black Christian Dior dress.

Angelina Jolie for Vogue Mexico December 2024:

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Not good,” voiced caioherrero the moment the cover dropped.

“She looks really sad here, like she got the worst possible news just before she walked on set,” noted a disappointed URIAH.

Also not exactly best impressed was forum member kokobombon. “This looks so low budget,” they called out.

“These look like outtakes. It takes skill to make Angelina Jolie look this bad,” shrieked Hchloe.

“That’s quite an unflattering shot of Angelina Jolie. Not her best angle. That being said, I like the coloring and the simplicity of it all,” shared vogue28.

“What I like about the cover and all of the photographs of Jolie is how real they look,” MModa appreciated.

Ivano also liked what they saw, commenting: “I love the idea of Angelina Jolie as a cover star. Her face at least wasn’t retouched in such a way magazines do!”

Ever since setting foot in Christian Dior HQ, Maria Grazia Chiuri has commissioned many female photographers to capture the brand’s various campaigns. Subsequent to MGC’s debut season in Spring 2017, female talents like Brigitte Lacombe. Paola Mattioli, Alice Mann, Collier Schorr, and more recently Sarah Jones have been called upon to capture Dior’s campaign imagery. Make no mistake Brigitte Niedermair is a firm fave of Maria Grazia Chiuri as Christian Dior creative director. Nierdermair is back (once again), this time for the Christian Dior Cruise 2025 season campaign offering. Ali Dansky, Jiali Zhao, Sanija Dalecka, and Tanya Churbanova become the faces of the collection, which was presented in Scotland back in June. Throughout the campaign, the girls gaze down Nierdermair’s lens and pose against a pale gold backdrop.

The Christian Dior Cruise 2025 Ad Campaign:

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“I like the blurry background. That’s all,” voiced FashionFanatico upon checking out the campaign.

“It’s like almost there… but not good. It has components to be good and then it all is just a bit meh,” chimed in forum member Kite.

Sharing the same sentiments toward the campaign was reese06. “Everything is disjointed and nothing is working together. This doesn’t evoke any emotion and might as well be a catalog. Awful,” they stated.

Frederic01 wasn’t best impressed either, commenting: “Dior had the opportunity to photograph this collection on location in Scotland. Instead, they chose a studio with a mustard-yellow backdrop? Why!”

“Admittedly, some shots are more superior than others. However, this is just another fine example displaying the level of mediocrity we’ve come to expect from Maria Grazia Chiuri at Christian Dior. There’s just zero sense of life, energy or luxury radiating from this campaign imagery. Such a snoozefest after that spectacular display at Drummond Castle!” exclaimed vogue28.

Welcome back to theFashionSpot’s Top Picks shopping series, where we shine a spotlight upon the collections of just about every major fashion house. We’ve since taken a deep dive into the Fall/Winter 2024 collections – particularly those of Alexander McQueen, Moschino, Fendi, Miu Miu, Louis Vuitton, Chloé, Prada, Tom Ford, Versace, and Dolce & Gabbana. Up next… the Christian Dior Cruise 2025 collection.

In June, Maria Grazia Chiuri staged the Christian Dior Cruise 2025 show in Scotland at Drummond Castle, situated in Perthshire. Archival photographs from Monsieur Dior’s 1955 Scottish showcase were ultimately reproduced as prints on tops and coats throughout MGC’s lineup. Scotland’s iconic Harris Tweed was also unsurprisingly at the forefront of a number of looks. Maria Grazia Chiuri looked to Mary, Queen of Scots and her rebellious spirit for inspiration, resulting in puffball gowns crafted from rich black velvet and adorned with heavy embroidery detailing.

Samira Nasr’s Harper’s Bazaar isn’t exactly an absolute must-have purchase for us when visiting our local newsstand. After all, the American fashion title has become extremely hit and miss. Covers throughout 2024 featuring the likes of Emma Corrin, Winona Ryder, Jennie, and Kendrick Lamar have failed to hit the spot. Yet on the opposite end of the scale, Regina King and a twosome of covers with Anok Yai and Christy Turlington have impressed us to no end. Nasr opts to close out the year by welcoming Miley Cyrus onto the cover of Harper’s Bazaar for December 2024/January 2025. The American singer-songwriter, actress, and current face of Dolce & Gabbana poses for Ethan James Green. Styled by Carlos Nazario, Cyrus is splashed across a duo of covers in looks from the Christian Dior and Valentino.

Miley Cyrus for Harper’s Bazaar December 2024/January 2025:

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“LOVE THE 2ND COVER!” exclaimed GERGIN upon checking out the two covers.

“The second cover was more than enough. The first one is tragic,” chimed in GivenchyAddict.

“Those covers of Harper’s Bazaar with Anok Yai and Christy Turlington by Ethan James Green were some of my most favorite covers of the year. These, with Miley Cyrus, pale in comparison IMO. The closeup portrait cover is most definitely the standout of the two. The colors are gorgeous. The first cover feels a little… flat,” voiced vogue28.

MModa commented: “Love the first cover only. The color scheme is just perfect for December. It is fashion and the image pulls me in. The second cover does not appeal to me at all!”

“Beautiful! Always nice to see Miley Cyrus looking gorgeous!” added guimon.

British Harper’s Bazaar stays winning. After all, covers over recent months starring the likes of Kate Winslet, Venus Williams, and Lupita Nyong’o have impressed us to no end. Therefore, we aren’t at all surprised to see the magazine closing out 2024 on a high, with its annual “Women of the Year” edition. Lydia Slater celebrates Sophie Turner, Ambika Mod, Katarina Johnson-Thompson, and Victoria Beckham via the December 2024/January 2025 covers of British Harper’s Bazaar for the occasion. Turner is captured by Emma Summerton in a look from Louis Vuitton (unsurprisingly). Agata Pospieszynska shot a Christian Dior-clad Ambika Mod while Luc Braquet was called upon to capture Katarina Johnson-Thompson (decked out in Shushu/Tong). In the fourth and final cover, Victoria Beckham suits up a look from her namesake fashion label and is photographed by Boo George.

The December 2024/January 2025 ‘Women of the Year’ Covers of British Harper’s Bazaar:

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Sophie Turner’s cover is the best. She looks stunning,” enthused fauxfashion.

“The Sophie Turner cover looks like they Photoshopped the cigarette she was holding out of the photo,” pointed out forum member KoV.

“I do not know most of these women but I do like all of the covers,” voiced MModa. “I like the styling and color palette. Johnson-Thompson’s cover is my favorite and Turner’s my least favorite. The black polka dots look out of place with the other cover options.”

Srdjan simply wasn’t impressed, commenting: “Not sure about any. None say December, festivity, or glamour!”

“Feels generic, as a whole series,” jeremydante critiqued.

“Saw the Victoria Beckham cover in the shop and it has a beautiful silvery finish on the text. The whole effect against the whiteness of the shot was just lovely; very festive and very tempting,” admired LastNight.

“I came here to say the same thing!” replied vogue28. “Saw the Victoria Beckham cover and thought it was gorgeous. I was also an admirer of the silvery finish and the cover overall. It did indeed feel very celebratory and festive!”

Harper’s Bazaar Spain remains a must-have purchase when visiting our local newsstand. Throughout 2024, covers starring the likes of Jessica Chastain, Sydney Sweeney, Aitana, and Eva Herzigova have impressed us to no end. Make no mistake that under the control of Inma Jimenez Mateos, Spanish Harper’s Bazaar continues to go from strength to strength. Up next on Harper’s Bazaar Spain for November 2024 is Constance Jablonski. The French beauty poses for photographer Xavi Gordo and is dressed by stylist Claudia Laukamp. Across a twosome of covers, the pregnant model dons looks from Giorgio Armani and Christian Dior.

The November 2024 Covers of Harper’s Bazaar Spain with Constance Jablonski:

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Lovely but the first cover needs to tone the light down a bit,” voiced oaklee91.

“The soft photography doesn’t connect with the styling. This doesn’t look nice, which is odd since Constance Jablonski is very photogenic,” Deleted Member 1957 chimed in.

“After so many years and so many covers I am absolutely sure that I don’t like pregnant women on magazine covers – in any way, any composition, nothing,” shared a disinterested matheus_s.

“I’m not personally interested in pregnancy stories, but I can see how women’s fashion magazines would often include people going through this major stage in their life,” said tigerrouge.

Vogue28 commented: “More often than not, I approve of everything Harper’s Bazaar Spain does. However, the cover images here are extremely weak and questionable. The opening shot of Constance from the editorial would’ve made for one ultra-fabulous cover! What a missed opportunity!”

You just have to commend Inés Lorenzo’s impeccable choice of models. For the covers of Vogue Spain throughout 2024, Lorenzo has selected the likes of Karolina Spakowski, Lila Moss, Amelia Gray, Jill Kortleve, and Lulu Tenney as cover girls. The latest to make an appearance on the cover of Vogue Spain is none other than Adriana Lima. Fresh from a show-stopping appearance at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, the Brazilian beauty poses for photographer Daniel Jackson and is styled by Jorden Bickham. Across a duo of covers, Adriana seemingly goes makeup-free in cover one, wearing a tank top from Christian Dior and a hat from the Clyde x Collina Strada collab. In cover two , the OG VS Angel flexes her muscles in a black Dior dress.

The November 2024 Cover of Vogue Spain with Adriana Lima:

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Well talk about a well-coordinated comeback,” voiced marsnoop2.

“I don’t mind the no-makeup look but why with that headpiece and expression? The second cover is just dumb,” noted forum member kokobombon.

“Not the strongest return for Adriana Lima,” SLFC confessed.

“The first cover is okay,” reasoned mikel.

Thenewclassic commented: “It’s fine, but it should’ve been better and I don’t think it’s the fault of Adriana Lima!”

“This is precisely the Vogue Spain I know and love. The sight of Adriana Lima on Spanish Vogue takes me back to the time when Yolanda Sacristan was obsessed with the likes of Alessandra Ambrosio and Emily DiDonato as the magazine’s cover girls. This just feels so right, and I happen to love the outcome. Daniel Jackson has always done laidback minimalism so well,” admired vogue28.

Throughout 2024, Vogue China has been on our radar perhaps more so than ever before. Covers of the magazine with Fei Fei Sun, Liu Wen, and Xiao Wen Ju have captivated us to no end. Margaret Zhang departed the magazine in September and Rocco Liu is now installed as Editorial Director. Following on from last month with Liu Yifei, Rocco Liu’s first issue at the helm of the Chinese fashion bible is here. The October 2024 edition of the magazine sees Joan Chen, Carina Lau, Vivian Wu, Zhao Tao, and Yan Bingyan take to the cover. In the group-shot cover image lensed by Trunk Xu, the ladies play a game of Jenga and are dressed by stylist Vivienne Sun in looks from Christian Dior.

The October 2024 Cover of Vogue China:

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“I think I can already see Rocco’s vision for Vogue China based on the last two issues. It’s going to be less experimental and artsy, and more safe/elegant/commercial à la Angelica Cheung,” voiced Rigida.

“Crickets…” stated aphextwinks, suggesting the cover was a complete non-event.

“There is potential but the image should have been done in high contrast B&W. The lighting is just terrible,” shrieked a disapproving avonlea002.

Vogue28 voiced: “It’s stale, lackluster, and most definitely not the best group-shot cover I’ve come across. However, I do like the styling and the selection of looks from Christian Dior… very elegant.”

After all, not everyone was so underwhelmed. “I really like this and it’s the different expressions of these wonderful ladies who make it for me. So charming and very happy to see Zhao Tao,” appreciated forum member Nomar.

“I prefer boring Vogue China, tbh. Sue me,” shared blueorchid.

It’s safe to say Interview Magazine is firmly back on our radar here at theFashionSpot. Thanks to Mel Ottenberg, the likes of Bad Bunny, Rihanna, Billie Eilish, and Demi Moore have each greeted us on the cover of the magazine throughout 2024. This month, the iconic American title founded in 1969 by artist Andy Warhol and British journalist John Wilcock celebrates its 55th anniversary. Otteneberg (who has served as editor since 2021) commissioned a total of six celebratory covers. Up first as cover star is none other than Jennifer Lopez, who covers the Fall 2024 edition of Interview Magazine. Photographed by Brianna Capozzi, the American singer, songwriter, actress, and businesswoman is a bronzed goddess in the sultry cover shot. Styled by Haley Wollens, Jennifer wears a leopard print look from the Fall 2024 Christian Dior collection.

Jennifer Lopez on the Fall 2024 Cover of Interview Magazine:

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Jennfer Lopez photographs really well. She looks fabulous!” enthused thiago.

“Demi Moore and now Jennifer Lopez? Interview treating me REAL good lately. You could never make me dislike this woman, I am so here for this. The warmth, the glamour, the bronzed makeup look… it’s all working!” approved vogue28.

JPineapple was very much a fan too. ” I usually don’t care about Jennifer Lopez, but woooow. That face card? Saved the economy!” they raved.

“It’s very on-brand for Lopez. Most will like this as much as they like her brand. The cover has a weird effect like it’s been made artificially grainy, as if they wanted it to look like an old-school polaroid,” noted URIAH.

Blueorchid shared the same sentiments, commenting: “The photography makes it look like she’s wearing a sheer nylon over her head and face.”
