Edward Enninful keeps thinking outside the box, giving us Meghan Markle as British Vogue‘s guest editor last month and featuring Karlie Kloss and Zoë Kravitz on the cover in recent months — both posing before the lens of Steven Meisel. The legendary photographer is back with the goods once again, capturing Kaia Gerber as she makes her debut on the title as the magazine’s October 2019 cover star. In a nod to covers from the past, the current face of Versace and Jimmy Choo looks elegant wearing a look from Valentino’s Resort 2020 collection chosen by Joe McKenna.
The cover was a hit. “I absolutely love the cover, it really should have been September,” commented dodencebt the moment the cover dropped.
“I’m ecstatic! Such a stunning cover, I couldn’t be more satisfied! It’s an instant classic! We’ll just pretend this is September and that Lindbergh disaster never happened,” stated aracic.
“I LOVE THE COVER! This is so refreshing after those painful September covers,” shared slayage.

“Black giraffe, stunning! This reminds me of Adwoa [Aboah]‘s cover from December 2017. It’s simple and clean, but it catches your attention. This is a classic Vogue cover,” praised crmsnsnwflks.
“Wow, what a cover to wake up to this morning! She is stunning and works so well with Meisel. How lucky are we to have had four Meisel covers this year. Which have all been stunning,” echoed Blayne266.
“Now that‘s what a cover should look like!” heralded liberty33r1b.
