Before the pandemic, this one from The Gourmand came out. A great Trump cover was the one from the Economist with a flag on the top of the White House in that flag, you see the profile of an angry Donald Trump. And what about Sports Illustrated with all the empty seats and just the logo on their cover, that’s impact. I love what Private Eye did by turning their cover into toilet paper, exactly on the moment when the whole world was trying to buy toilet paper in supermarkets cause it was sold out everywhere. All white as a statement! I also adore the octopus on the head of the boy from Das Magazin as I stated above. Your Vogue Italia White Cover (April 2020) belongs there too, an incredible ace, I remember it exploded on social networks when this one came out. What are the covers that impressed you the most this year? I have all my favs of 2020 here. It really makes me think about our careless summers and the uncertain future and fun for our youth, for everybody. But when a cover carries some optimism it catches my eye a bit more, like this one from Das Magazin from Switzerland… it carries some innocence, some optimism, some beauty, some craziness. I have seen a lot, there’s a lot of negativism and drama, as it should, because it’s not going well out there. I have a selection of favorites here, where you can vote your favorites as well. From hospitals to our social life to quarantine to the next step in our lives. How was the issue of COVID-19 addressed, and thus represented, on the covers of printed magazines? COVID-19 has been over all the covers this year. For example like Vogue, I noticed all covers worldwide are dealing with social engagement on their covers. Now mags can take their chance to show what it is about, where it stands for. I like that, a lot! As long as it’s believable of course and not a marketing tool. Use multimedia to facilitate grand experiences. Introduce contrast to improve visual appeal. In your opinion, are there any trends in cover design right now? Now, after a year like 2020, you see a lot of social engagement on covers, as we have never seen before. Streamline your efforts by designing the master pages first. But Coverjunkie is not only about those covers it’s about creativity in general. The covers everybody remembers are the ones featuring a war or a scandal. An epic cover contains news, vibe, and creativity all in one. “I can resist anything but temptation,” wrote Oscar Wilde. A cover that rocks is the one you can’t resist the temptation picking it up, reading it. Personally, I think a magazine cover is all about temptation. What are the elements that make a cover stand out? It’s a great one when it punches you in the face or when you wanna lick it, ahah! And the 'surprise!', that’s a very important element of a cover. But it’s so rewarding to put the art-directors, creatives and artists into the spotlight, they deserve that. You have to know I was single when I started this and now I have three daughters, so it’s a lot harder to give it the same attention. On Coverjunkie I do all the shout-outs myself. I love drinking espresso and playing basketball. I’m art directing Volkskrant Magazine, based in Amsterdam. My main thing in life is being a graphic designer myself. Who is behind it? Who is Jaap Biemans? Can you tell us a bit more about you? I created the concept, designed the logo, the website and launched it. But the website is still the backbone! The website is independent and I can do whatever I like up there, and it’s a great archive. When Instagram was launched I thought it was a better fit for Coverjunkie because it got more impact and is about visuals. Vogue’s March 2021 issue is available on newsstands nationwide on February 22nd.īefore you go, click here to see more celebrity kids who look just like their parents.In the beginning it was a blog, right? When did you decide to turn it into an Instagram account, and why? Yes, it started as a website, but I immediately integrated Facebook and Twitter. These photos could be Kardashian’s way of restating control over her family’s narrative, and we can’t help but sympathize with her desire for the conversation around her family to change. These Vogue photos highlight a complicated reality - that the Kardashian-West kids have never been more in the spotlight than they are now, and not for reasons their parents may like. It’s oddly heartwarming that she claims responsibility in this way, knowing she must be aware of how harshly the media has come down on West.
In the profile, Kim Kardashian generously suggests that her newfound focus on “me” is what “caused my divorce” from West, but Kardashian surely knows the public has drawn its own conclusions about the reasons for her split. Kim Kardashian ‘Vogue’ March 2022 Cover (Fashion Editor: Carlos Nazario, Hair: Chris Appleton, Makeup: Mario Dedivanovic) Carlign Jacobs for Vogue.
