V magazine displays fashion with a capital F with visuals driving the focus throughout. So there is never a dull cover, spread or inch in the mag.
In true V Magazine style the Fall 2010 Issue see’s everything New York, fashion, photography, artwork and music. Celebrating the NY theme, legendary fashion designer and NY native Marc Jacobs is suit and booted, wearing a classic Tuxedo alongside a fellow New York gal and wild child Lady Gaga.
The cover plays tribute to America’s most fashion forward state as GaGa plays dress up (nothing new here) as the Statue of Liberty. Including a burning tash bag torch and a crown sculpted out of her own hair.
In turn authentic style, the notirious V is made out of coloured gum. Scrapped from the subway maybe…?
I think that this cover is most definitely one that stands out from the crowd. I love that the its a collaboration of not only Gaga and Jacobs but of the grimy sense of New York City that some might gloss over.
