Vogue Singapore (and Stylist Nicola Formichetti, Especially) Do Lucy Liu a Total Disservice

2 hours ago 1

Throughout 2024, we’ve talked a lot about Vogue Singapore here on theFashionSpot. You won’t be able to blame us, either. After all, the magazine (under the guidance of Desmond Lim) has ultimately garnered our attention to no end thanks to a plethora of stunning Charli XCX, Sara Grace Wallerstedt, Xiao Wen Ju, and Sasha Pivovarova cover offerings. Lim, who has served as the publication’s editor-in-chief since 2023, welcomes none other than Lucy Liu as Vogue Singapore cover girl for November 2024. The American actress (born in New York City to Chinese immigrant parents) poses before the lens of photographer Victor Demarchelier for the occasion, complete with styling from Nicola Formichetti. Cover one (below) sees Liu showcase a voluminous floral Balenciaga creation. In the second alternative cover (after the jump), the “Red One” actress sports another piece from the Paris-based couture house, from the Demna-designed Cruise 2025 collection to be exact.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Another stylist who needs to be fired immediately,” instantly declared blueorchid upon checking out the two questionable covers.

In complete agreement was vogue28. “The styling is indeed somewhat questionable. I do like how dramatic the two covers are but that hideous floral Balenciaga look on cover one is an eyesore, and swallows Lucy Liu up. The second is undoubtedly better than the first. What a massively missed opportunity from all those involved,” he commented in a state of disbelief.
