love loves blood


Proof that the somewhat small Vampire trend is on the up; LOVE magazine's latest issue had dedicated itself to all things Blood Luxe. The theme is "New Blood, The Young & The Reckless." Make that Kristen Stewart (duh), Evan Rachel Wood and uh, the Jonas Brothers? (Well, Katie Grand always was good at indulging in popular culture.) The above image is a sneak peek from the inside the latest issue, so we'll have to be patient to see who has made the cover.

I'm still waiting for someone to produce a Robert Pattinson interview with an originally styled editorial. Less of this open-shirted, scruffy-booted business, if that's how he looks when I fantastise about him (which I do, there is your DC fact of the day..) then I'm hoping for something a little different on paper.

I think Grand is the woman to do it, but sadly his absence from the latest issue tells me she didn't fancy it.

  2. The world is obsessed with vampires! films, tv, Topshop and now Love. I was wondering when the next issue was out, Taylors Momsen and Swift and the Jonas brothers though?!

  4. Hmmm, it's true. Blood and vampires dp seem to be pretty popular these days. I find it slightly irritating.

  10. grand isn't a twilight fangirl? i would have picked her to be totally all over that stuff. I really liked the first issue of love, it was intriguing, very well done, can't wait to see what this one does with taylor swift and smiley miley! X

    Man, vampires are so huge right now ....


    ....I'm losing my interest in the genre. Not because it's 'mainstream' but because the fact that it's now mainstream means its just in overkill!

    I've always liked the romantic vampire idea, but it's getting a bit boring now...hope they have done some cool editorial with Kristen or Evan.

    And you're so right about the Rob Pattinson editorials, always the same silly things. I wish that Hedi Slimane take some pics of him, like the ones he took of Louis Garrel.

    kisses

  15. Oh this issue looks fantastic! I'm excited to see Kristen Stewart, Taylor Momsen and Evan in the issue. But Miley Cyrus?? No. And i agree with you on the subject of Rob.

  16. The problem that I have with Love is that for every truly Iconic individual in its pages there are ten vapid throw-away 'celebrities'. It would be cool if it were done in a subtly ironic sort of way but it's not it's just pandering to talentless people who don't need extra help inflating their egos.

    It's a shame though because a lot of money and effort obviously goes into producing it.

    The Jonas Brothers? Miley Cyrus? Give me a break already.

  17. Ooh, can't wait for this to show up in a store near me! I wasn't very impressed with the first issue but this one looks more promising!
