Kaia Gerber Ups Her Sensual ID by Luigi & Iango for Vogue Japan September 2020

Photographers Luigi & Iango shot the Vogue Japan September 2020 covers and editorials before quarantine. As online commentators argue that Kaia Gerber shouldn’t be allowed to shoot covers like these (see below) until she is 25 at least, Vogue Japan’s Anna Della Russo rolls along, creating some much needed glamour and controversy for the new issue.

I’m not kidding about the child porn convo, leading me to wonder at which point fashion industry critical convo from so-called professionals becomes fashion industry self-strangulation. Kaia looks great, for goddesses sake.

Kaia Gerber’s Vogue Japan September issue covers and editorial previews are only half the convo. Della Russo rolls on with an extraordinary, mega dose of black beauty. Coming up next. ~ Anne

Vogue Japan March 2020 Cover Story by Luigi & Iango

Anna Dello Russo has long operated in her own fashion lane when it comes to magazine layout and production of new seasonal overviews. Sometimes it requires a few weeks of push-ups preparedness just to break them down.

One source posts four covers when there are eight. Model agencies post only their models, and in a large cast that includes Adriana Lima, Candice Swanepoel, Doutzen Kroes, Edita Vilkeviciute, Joan Smalls, Sui He and Shanelle Nyasiase, one is trying to piece together four agencies. Luigi & Iango love you, but they didn’t do the illustrations.
