Loewe Spring Summer 2013 Ad Campaign
Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott photographed the Spring Summer 2013 campaign of Loewe, featuring actress Penelope Cruz and model Caio Cesar (congrats on your first major campaign!), at the Palacio Marqués de Villafranca in Madrid.
A key reference for the spring collection and campaign is Gala Dalí, the wife and muse of Surrealist artist Salvador Dalí, chosen for her strong and passionate character.
Penelope Cruz signed a three-year deal to front the Madrid-based house, founded in 1846 and owned since 1996 by French luxury giant LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton. The Oscar-winning actress said she grew up with Loewe, and in the ads she wields its Amazona bag, originally created in 1975, plus one from its new equestrian-tinged Paseo line.
The campaign was art directed by Riccardo Ruini, and styled by Joe McKenna. With Pablo Iglesias responsible for the hair and Charlotte Tilbury on the make up.

Featured Article: Vogue Spain 2012 Covers Recap
Vogue Spain editors really love German born Toni Garrn. She’s featured on the June edition (by Tom Munro, who also shot the November issue with Penelope Cruz) which marks her third consecutive year appearing on the cover. In 2011, she even got featured twice! Belarusian model Maryna Linchuk, landed the honour to graced the cover of Vogue Spain twice in 2012, for January and September issue by Vincent Peters and Maciek Kobielski respectively.
The rest of the cover models last year are totally well known and established girls such as Isabeli Fontana/February, Edita Vilkeviciute/March, Laetitia Casta/April, Lily Donaldson/May, Karolina Kurkova/July, Malgosia Bela/August, Bianca Balti/October, and Kate Moss/December. Almost every cover images were nice (except Toni‘s bland June issue), but our 2012 favourite pick goes to Edita‘s sexy March cover, in which she’s wearing a chambray shirt and Balmain skirt. The text doesn’t really covered her body and the styling works for her.
Which one is your favourite from the magazine in 2012? Read our 2011 recap of Vogue Spain, here and 2010 recap, here.

Featured Article: Harper’s Bazaar US 2012 Covers Recap
Harper’s Bazaar US got a makeover last March with bigger size and new layout designed by Robert Derrick (formerly at British Vogue) and Stephen Gan. but we think the makeover didn’t matter much on their newsstands cover. It’s still boring, repetitive, and unattractive. Perhaps, Carine Roitfeld appointment as Harper’s Bazaar‘s Global Fashion Director last October could bring something fresh to this Glenda Bailey‘s monthly edited fashion publication. But we are doubting that, until we see her first collaboration with the magazine next March.
Their March, April, September and November issue are quite interesting. Maybe it’s because their sleek new fonts and a great Gwyneth Paltrow shot? Maybe it’s because Mila Kunis? Maybe because the bold pink Alexis Mabille headpiece that popped? Or maybe because the matching gold backdrop and dress? Only those four newsstands covers that stole our attention this year.
The subscriber covers were quite decent this year and to be honest, they are even better than the newsstand version. Our favourite pick for subs are Rihanna‘s August, Gwen‘s September and Kate Hudson‘s October issue. The rest of the cover star slot were given to Demi Moore/February (Ugh, worst cover of the year!), Penelope Cruz/May, Kate Moss/June-July, and Taylor Swift/December-January 2013.
