The current shared content strategy Condé Nast is inflicting upon the editions of Vogue worldwide has became the bane of our lives. Kendall Jenner’s two-month-old American Vogue cover shoot was ultimately repurposed on Vogue France earlier this month. The latest shoot to be regurgitated and repurposed is from British Vogue‘s July 2024 edition, recycled as Vogue Italia’s August 2024 cover. Francesca Ragazzi selects a shoot from Martin Parr’s fashion story featuring model Karen Elson. Captured on location within London’s Piccadilly Circus, the celebrated British model who hails from the town of Oldham in Greater Manchester, England sports a look from Virginie Viard’s Pre-Fall 2024 Chanel collection.
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“The two people in the back are taking me out!” laughed forum member onlooker.
“Tourists on Instagram take better pics than this,” scolded kokobombon.

“Karen Elson and Vogue Italia used to be a match made in heaven. what has this magazine become? Atrocious cover,” exclaimed WAVES.
“This is definitely Karen Elson’s weakest Vogue cover to date,” MModa stated.
