Keira Knightley on September Vogue…with no hair!
I haven’t read an issue of Vogue in months (years?), mostly because it’s strangely out of touch. It feels as if the editors are clinging to Vogue’s glory days as the last-word in everything fashion…and are unwilling to concede that, thanks to blogs and websites and “Celebrities–They’re Just Like US!” and TMZ (ugh), we’re in a new era and the old formulas don’t apply. Does anybody really still feel that Vogue is the preeminent fashion arbiter, full-stop? I certainly don’t.
This Keira Knightley cover, promoting her new movie The Duchess (about Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire, who was Princess Diana’s great-great-great-whatever, and the Paris Hilton of her day - can’t wait!) confuses the hell out of me. What is going on with her hair? Answers? Anybody?!

Wow. I’m normally her biggest cheerleader but this is a train wreck

OMG! Is this cover a joke? The hair
makes her look like she’s going throught chemo, the bushy brows are not flattering to her delicate, small-featured face, and why is she wrapped in scraps of velvet? This is not fashion, this is not the way celebs dress, and Nadine, you are right about Vogue bein g out of touch.

I couldn’t agree more about Vogue’s irrelevance. In Style and Lucky have more to say that is actually useful about trends and styles in clothes makeup and hair. Elle even, just not Vogue anymore

Oh my lord. That is not hair. That is NOT hair. Even on my worst, wind-whipped, rained-on days…

Wow. She kind of looks like Natalie Portman in V for Vendetta, doncha think? Agree that the outfit is totally weird, and what’s up with the matching bracelets?

If you want to be totally shocked… open up the stupid issue and look at the photo shoot of swimsuits in a September edition of Vogue. Anna Wintour has gone off her rocker. She needs to be fired. That is all I can say.
