I don't know if it's a good or a bad sign for this issue, or maybe it just means it's forgettable.
One thing that struck me, is that there are a s**tload of sheath dresses this month:
These two are part of what is described as a 50s inspired photoshoot... Do you see it? I don't. Not even the styling looks vintage.
Anyway, I kind of like the second one, with the faux top underneath.
These two are as generic as it gets. I really don't have any comments, except that dog is as adorable as it is random.
More randomness... A wedding dress.
Is the model mad because she has a huge bow attached to her back?
The dress looks very chic on the model and the cinched waist makes it very wearable.
The jacket is just incredibly cute, with the cropped sleeves, the rounded lapel and the two buttons.
Finally, we have a Carmen Miranda inspired photoshoot (again, why? So random...).
Can you visualize how excited the LMB stylist must have been when he was told about this theme? If you read a few of my reviews of this magazine, you know that I HATE the styling and I'm convinced whoever is in charge might be a little crazy. It's always bold makeup, chunky jewelry and generally A LOT of accessory, so this must have been a field day for the guy.
But to be fair, some of the garments are actually cute.
That's it. All I had to say.
Since I'm running out of space in my room in a spring cleaning mood, I decided I'm not going to keep this issue, so it's for sale on eBay.
I also listed a bunch of old issues that need a more loving home, so please check this link out if you're interested.
That is, quite the bow, haha and so many bangles!
ReplyDeleteI am reading this at my desk while drinking tea. I got to Carmen Miranda and laughed so hard I almost spit tea across the desk. Thanks for brightening my afternoon :)
ReplyDeleteThey forgot the banana's on Carmen's head! That bow is horrendous! When I first saw some comments on FB I was actually hopeful about this issue...I agree with your choices
ReplyDeleteI always seem to disagree with the Facebook crowd, I guess I'm too picky or I simply have different taste than the average LMB reader :(
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome!
ReplyDeleteI first leafed through the issue while I was on a crowded train and at Carmen Miranda I started imagining the stylist squealing and running around with bangles and bright eyeshadows in his hands, I laughed so hard and the old lady sitting in front of me looked so puzzled as why a sewing magazine could be so funny :D
Oh yeah, this guy has a forearm fetish: the models are always wearing either pounds of bangles or elbow gloves...
ReplyDeleteThis actually doesn't look too bad an issue! I like the wedding dress but would keep the bow off, it just look s ridiculous! Really like the last dress too but what is with all the accessories?!
ReplyDeleteCiao, Anna. La ringrazio molto per la tua opinione. Sono molto necessarie. Voglio comprare voi tre rivista, ho davvero bisogno di loro. Ma io sono in Russia. Pacchetto Vozozhno?
ReplyDeleteI think she needs Maraca's..
ReplyDeleteThe lack of a full fruit basket on her head leaves me cold inside...
ReplyDeleteIf only they knew what was going on in a sewists mind...
ReplyDeletedon´t worry you´re not alone! my opinion on their photo shoots is quite harsh actually...
ReplyDeleteyikes. just say no to the carmen miranda inspired photoshoot.

I'm sorry, Alla, but the issue I had for sale has already been bought.
ReplyDeleteHi Alla, if you're interested in the issues I'm selling, please get in touch with me on ebay, using the link above.
ReplyDeleteAnna, thanks for the reply. I can not yet register on Ebey. I will try next.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why the wedding dresses in these sewing pattern magazines are always so bizarre? I always noticed that with Burda, too, when I was getting it. All I can think of when I see that big bow is massive 80's throwback, and living through the 80s once as a kid was enough of THAT, thankyouverymuch.
ReplyDeleteThis is rather off-topic, but I just received my Burda magazine. Would love to know if you're going to write about it, cos I love your reviews!
ReplyDeletepics are wicked as usually, but that purple jacket is frigging adorable
