You might find it hard to believe that Gwendoline Christie had never graced the cover of Vogue before. Despite being a total fashion darling, no other Vogue editor from across the globe had chased after Christie to become their cover star – until now. Danica Kovarova ushers in the British actress as Vogue Czechoslovakia’s cover star for the magazine’s all-important September 2024 edition. Across a duo of dynamic and fashion-forward covers, Christie (who shut it DOWN closing out John Galliano’s masterful and internet-breaking Maison Margiela Artisanal showcase back in January) dials up the theatrics once again via the lens of Szilvester Mako. A dress from Simone Rocha and heels from Maison Margiela were selected by stylist Milena Zuravljova for Gwendoline to don in cover one (below). Christie then sports Prada and a pair of Jimmy Choo heels in cover two (after the jump).
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:
“I used to be a fan of Szilvester’s photography at first but with each new shoot I find myself liking it less. He should stop with all the stupid gimmicks and focus on good composition and styling,” voiced avonlea002.
“Horrible. Do even hipsters still care about something like this?” asked Srdjan.
Matheus_s wasn’t best impressed either. “Vogue Czechoslovakia used to be so upfront, unusual, edge… now it’s just regular,” they shared.
Blueorchid shared the same sentiments toward the magazine, adding: “The editions of Vogue that try to be art mags sincerely bother me more than any of the half-baked garbage we see in British Vogue!”
“Stop trying to make this woman happen. Gwendoline Christie is not a style icon,” declared Alquimista.
“Never been one to ride the Gwendoline Christie train. Genuinely couldn’t care less about her being on the cover of Vogue. Vogue Czechoslovakia is genuinely more miss than hit nowadays, so I am not at all surprised to find myself being majorly underwhelmed by this,” vogue28 chimed in.
