To say Harper’s Bazaar under the direction of Samira Nasr has become an absolute snoozefest would be an understatement. Here at theFashionSpot, not even covers with Margaret Qualley, Leanne de Haan, Lana Del Rey and Gisele Bündchen have managed to win of us over recent months. Now that Carlos Nazario is style director at large, we’re hopeful cover shoots will begin to brighten up. Next up on Nasr’s cover subject conquest list is Solange Knowles, who becomes Bazaar‘s March 2024 cover star. The American singer-songwriter and actress is styled by Nazario for the occasion, wearing a look from Prada’s Spring 2024 collection as she poses for photographer Larissa Hoffman.
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:
“JESUS… Samira is making history! She is the first and only EIC that all her covers are TERRIBLE. No other has achieved this. Her name will be in the Guinness Book!” laughed DK92.
In complete agreement was vogue28: “Goodness, what a total non-event of a cover for a March issue. Another cover under Nasr’s unfortunate reign that is completely devoid of energy, life, soul, charm…”
“As expected, it’s so incredibly booooooring. The outfit on the cover is overwhelming, it looks terrible. Solange deserved better!” aracic declared.
Lola701 ultimately felt the same way, commenting: “I love Solange! I love her style, I love her music! This cover and the story are the next level of boredom. Lackluster styling and photography!”
“They could’ve done so much better having her,” chimed in Ivancica.
“Samira doesn’t know how to pick a cover to save her life!” marsnoop2 exclaimed.
