the error after I saved the photo. So sorry for that.*

This is not an entry. I just can't get over that Eugenia was excluded from the cover of 2004's September issue.

Please disregard my entry with Adut, Imaan, and
Vittoria since I messed up Imaan's name on the cover.

I don't think so but I would feel bad using actual headlines from old issues Usually I do one word covers but with this specific American Vogue task it would look empty. However, I failed to come up with more yet again

Sorry for constantly spamming the thread with extra entries, but I can't help myself when it comes to Meisel! This is probably my favorite challenge theme so far lol
I wanted to reimagine some covers of US Vogue and how the magazine would look if they kept Meisel as the cover photographer all through the 2000s. Planned on doing all twelve issues of 2008, but lost interest halfway through - still, I wanted to post here just for the sake of it hahah Don't wanna let them go to waste!

Is it time to crown the winner? It's been one week

 

[SRank]

It's been a week, so it's time to announce the winner!

I must say that I'm absolutely amazed by the terrific job that y'all did. Every single entry looked fantastic and should be in print.

Amongst all those entries, one made me feel touched by it's timeless and elegant sense...

Congratulations, @vogue28! Those images from Tennant are just superb and you did such a great work! The subscriber version is truly remarkable.

 

[Piet Retief]

Congratulations vogue28 Yet again a round with too many great entries

 

[vogue28]

Aw wonderful, I am extremely flattered and honored to have been chosen as the winner of this round @[B]SRank[/B]. Thank you for the kind words. Each and every single entry was superb. A massive round of applause to everyone who entered!

New Theme: The Black Issue

I think it would be remiss of us not to partake in the Black Lives Matter movement within this thread, and show the industry just how diversity ought to be done on the covers of our favourite fashion glossies. Whether you want to give your favourite black model/actress the spotlight on the cover of American Vogue, do a 2020 spin on Italian Vogue's iconic 'Black Issue' from 2008 or gift a black photographer the cover spot - the choice is yours.

Good luck!
