Layered up Vogue covers

In an interesting experiment posted on LiveJournal, last year’s Vogue covers from each of the different editions have been overlayed to surprisingly varied effect. Some are light and airy looking while others – notably the Paris edition – are darker with more apparent typographic variation.

It’s interesting to see how the UK edition (above left) creates a sort of average model shot (Dave Gorman anyone?) while you’d be hard pressed to focus on a single clear face in the Paris edition (above right).

The Maggies

Talking of awards, The Maggies have been announced. Nice to see a couple of Scottish magazines in there – notably, Clash, winning the lifestyle category against titles like Red, She and Good Housekeeping. Well done lads!
