Vogue India August: (Un)Covered
Defying time are Feroze and Shobhaa for whom it seems as if the clock has stood still! Still looking fabulous and every bit the super models they once were, they grace Vogue’s August cover in Armani. Of course, Ujjwala and Jyothsna hold their own and then some.
Who is your favorite on the cover?
Update: Added the real cover.
L To R: Feroze Gujral, Ujjwala Raut, Jyothsna Chakravarthy and Shobha De

uh i’ve seen the alexander mcqueen on cheryl coe and thought it looked terribleand it still does on this cover.
also i wonder why the put that “ageless issue” sticker that way, it’s hiding most of the photo and shobaa de’s beautiful dress!! tsk tsk lol
ujjwala looks so much like padma lakshmi! come on that is Shobaa? there is a limit to photoshop!
They all look beautiful- I prefer Jyothsna.
Question- is that white block (the ageless issue) really part of the cover?
This is one of the few(read: very few) Vogue In. spreads I’ve seen which are Vogue worthy… It looks good.
while I loved the fact that they brought India’s past present and future models together, I hate the photo-shopping on Shobha and Feroza, They do show signs of aging in real life and that is OK, as they still look fabulous without this photo-shopping.
I think it’s a fantastic cover! The women are all gorgeous!
Jyothsna is my fav. She cud give any of the present models a run for their money even now.
It’s a great cover, but I do wish they had gone easy on the photoshop for once.
I…don’t like the cover
It’s very contrived :/
Padma lakshmi???? She has in her own way stood out!
Vogue India IS SO BORING! They could have done so much more with EXPERIENCE MODELS.
who is Jyothsna? She looks gorgeous.
the cover itself looks like an early 90s femina cover. could have been something more exciting.
On second thought; just to clarify: Vogue worthy because of the concept of models and keeping it fashion centric… nothing else, of course agree with pdaervo that it is contrived and stale might i add.
ujwala does look AGED inspite of all the photoshoppping!
I am not a big fan of GA, his clothes are well cut, but boring, but the dress on FG is beautiful.
Where is Lakshmi Menon!?!? She’s truly the most well-known high fashion Indian model of the moment.
Isnt the Giorgio Armani dress that Feroze Gujral is wearing the same one that KareenA Kapoor wore on Harper’s Bazaar’s first issue?
Janhvi,
It’s the same style but not the same dress. Feroze’s is a different print. You can check out Kareena’s below.

Gujral, Ujju and Shoba look fab so does the new girl….man Indian women are beautiful……
I agree with above.. this is one of the VERY FEW Vogue covers that actually look Vogue worthy. They all are so beautiful.. I haven’t seen the new models before but wowwww.
Hey P&P,
I was waiting for you guys to post this… I ‘d even mentioned it in one of my comments previously…
This is one of the Vogue covers that I like,!!
The cover is eyecatching. Everyone looks great in their respective pics in the mag!
They fooled even high heel with the photoshopping. Nice! Shobha and Feroze do not look like this in real life, its so unfair for the women aging gracefully to show these as bench marks…its like “please get some botox”
jyothsna and ujjwalla look fabulous. not too sure about other two.
hi
isnt the dress on feroze the same as seen on harpers bazaar launch issue (march 09) on kareena kapoor? just a thought, would be great if u can clarify! :)
Cover is okay-ish, not special.
Oh, but I loooovveee the Alexander Mcqeen dres on Ujjwala.
I think Shobhaa looks stunning – photshop or not….
Same here, photoshoped or not for me its Shobha, her face is full of expressions, Jyosthna’s is the worst of them all no expressions what so ever.
I would love to see a cover with
Madhu Sapre
Mehr Jessia
Noyonika Chatterjee
Achla Sachdev
Ujjwala Raut
Namrata Shriodkar
Priya Pradhan
Alison K
Queenie Singh
and a few other big ramp name from the 80s 90s that still look masala hot.
They might end up in a big catfight cause each one of them has disliked another at some stage however if the camera keeps rolling it will make a great cover
“Killer Looks” Vogue India.
an aside comment from the cover and the models featured- i like this model Ashika Pratt, great looks, poise, body.. why isn’t she featured more on covers
