As Editor-in-Chief of Harper’s Bazaar France, Olivier Lalanne has mastered the art of models as cover stars. Subsequent to the magazine’s triumphant relaunch, Lalanne has welcomed fresh faces and established icons onto French Bazaar. Everyone from Karolina Spakowski and Naomi Campbell to Kate Moss and Awar Odhiang have graced the magazine throughout 2024. Lalanne endorses new blood within the world of modeling, with the unveiling of the all-important September issue. Give it up for Layla Etengan as cover girl, posing before the lens of British photographer David Sims. Former Vogue Paris editor Emmanuelle Alt reported for styling duties, opting to wrap the British beauty in a faux fur coat from Anthony Vaccarello’s Fall 2024 Saint Laurent collection in the undeniably flawless cover shot.
