Charlotte Wales Captures Lola, Malika, Mika in 'Nouvelle Vague' for Vogue France AOC France
Model Lola Nicon makes it abundantly clear that Malika Louback and Mika Schneider are along for the ride in ‘Nouvelle Vague’, Vogue France’s disoriented, disjointed February 2022 cover. Emiie Karech styles the trio for images by Charlotte Wales [IG].
AOC tries not to be too critical on creatives, but Vogue France is a mess. This is amateur hour for a magazine with a great history that ended in 2011. Good goddess!
In this sad cover concoction, just make the title ‘Whatever Lola Wants, Lola Gets!’ [that’s a song]. But I’ll say this. You want to upstage the very talented Malika Louback and Mika Schneider, who shine in the actual story and the industry at large, you all better know what you are doing. Because you failed here, and this is French Vogue — or it was once long ago Vogue Paris.
No wonder the luxury brands increasingly want to control their own media. When they want a magazine feature, they can just send it over in a finished state to Vogue France and pay the price for publication. It will be fabulous. ~ Anne
