The fashion industry continues to embrace Anne Hathaway like there’s no tomorrow. In such a short space of time we’ve encountered the American actress down at the newsstand as a Vanity Fair cover star and sat back and watched as Donatella Versace welcomed her muse as the face of the Versace Icons campaign (again) for 2024. V Magazine is the latest to jump on the Hathaway bandwagon, with the unveiling of the publication’s Summer 2024 covers. Via the lens of Chris Colls and styled by Gro Curtis, the Academy Award-winning talent poses for the first time as a V cover star and partakes in a gender-bending shoot across a twosome of dynamic covers. In cover one (below), Anne suits up in head-to-toe Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda and dons a look from the viral Maison Margiela Artisanal collection in the second cover (after the jump).
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:
“I do not understand Hathaway’s appeal but the cover with the Maison Margiela is beautiful. Love everything about it,” enthused MModa.
“What in the graphic designer hell is that font and the amateurish typography? It looks as if the font didn’t make it through the export so InDesign put Myriad Pro in its place. I can’t even look at the image,” shrieked forum member RaisinBoy.
Also quick to suggest V‘s art direction isn’t up to scratch was thiago, commenting: “Back in the day at art school, I always had V Magazine on my mood board. Now their font choices are pure trash. It absolutely kills the cover shot (which I’m not really buying t- same styling as the runway once again). Can we have Anne in Versace?”
“Neither of the two covers rock my world but I can massively appreciate Anne Hathaway’s ability to adapt and become something else via the lens of different photographers. Not many actresses/celebrities would be willing to participate in such a shoot,” voiced vogue28.
