Doutzen is making her comeback with a multigirl editorial inside the Vogue UK March 2024 issue ... without a cover. 😔

Bibi Borthwick photography is incredibly BORING.

Well... At least it's a start.

1 advantage is that everyone in the fashion industry wants to have this magazine, so they can all see that Doutzen is available again. But come on, after 4 years, she's back with a 6 page spread shared with another model. Very weak and disappointing.

This is just as I expected ... H&M catalog low quality photoshoot and totally uninteresting.

Doutzen always delivers good work when she works with photographers who bring out the best in her, such as Steven Meisel, Mert & Marcus, Luigi & Iango. Those three always ensure that Doutzen delivers in combination with great photography. I have the impression that other photographers do not give Doutzen any instructions, and as a result, she always shows the same monotonous facial expression. A surprised/vulnerable look with an open mouth. It's not interesting to look at... especially when the photography, light, hair and makeup is plain boring/bad.

(the styling is actually fine)

Fashion has become incredibly boring... So I wasn't expecting anything EXTRAORDINARY!

PREVIEW

 

D La Repubblica (14 covers/pretty sure Doutzen got 1)

This looks promising/interesting. Great photography, good light and fun makeup.

 

This is great, because Piergiorgio still likes her and can choose her for other jobs!

He is also the new casting director for Gucci. It would be great to see Doutzen in a Gucci campaign again after all these years.

 

I think that Sarah Keller (rip) is the unrecognized hero in Doutzen's model trajectory of being who she is today.

 

Has anyone noticed that ever since she passed away Doutzen's persona has kinda gone downhill? I think Sarah would never allow her to speak openly

about all her woo woo stuff on insta (colina-19 etc) and also looking at all fashion stuff Doutzen is doing (and isn't doing) makes it pretty clear to me that

she would have been nowhere if it wasn't for Sarah.

 

Either way. I love Doutzen. I think she is very genuine and has most beautiful face in the world. After she made model debut no one has matched her beauty.

 

She just doesn't seem good at "office politics" and she has always struck me like that. She has never been interested in fashion off camera (i mean look at her personal style), never interested in makeup or skincare, never has had narcissist tendencies to be in the limelight (a me, me, me thinking), often felt guilty of her beauty (at least early on), all the money in the world and she chooses the country life and not being in front of the camera or posting all the time on insta for followers....

 

Now when she can do what she wants this is the life she chooses.

 

Each to their own. But oh what a beauty. To get to look like her...

 

 

 

Since this situation with Doutzen involving COVID, I said that Sarah would never let that happen and would control the situation from the beginning, she was friends with Doutzen, but she knew how to do the professional part correctly!

The best photo is her with that red coat on half of her body!

Pure tragic! Doutzen makes her comeback with the most ugly photoshoot she has ever done.

I don't see talented model(s) in these photos, and I also don't see a photographer with talent. Is the photographer a talentless nepo kid or just really great connections?

If she's getting back into the game, I'd say those VS shots are a good start (part of the way back). Thank you @PinkCouture

Did not expect to see her working for VS again. She aged A LOT in 4 years ... so wrinkly!

I see not only sagging skin with wrinkles, but also a few age spots.

 

She needs to take better care of her skin as professional model. 

 

Hate to say it again ... not impressed by the VS pics (the photography, styling, etc. is fine). 

 

This looks a bit like my face expression (disappointing/grumpy/worried) seeing the poor quality of her new work.

By the way.. You don't sell VS outfits looking grumpy, bored or angry. The sun is not shining on her face so it's not because of the bright sun. She needs to improve her modeling skills as well.

 

I'm starting to doubt if she still has what it takes to work as a topmodel.
