Guest-Edited by Marc Jacobs, Kaia Gerber Poses for Steven Meisel on Vogue’s ‘Fun and Surprising’ December 2024 Covers

1 week ago 3

Throughout 2024, Anna Wintour has played it safe as Vogue‘s head honcho – until now. After all, the industry icon who has held the position as editor-in-chief since 1988 has welcomed a whole slew of old faces back onto the cover of the American fashion bible. Those faces have included everyone from Zendaya to Kendall Jenner and Blake Lively to Kamala Harris. However, Wintour throws us a curveball to round out the year, enlisting none other than Marc Jacobs as Vogue guest editor – the magazine’s very first. The famed American fashion designer secured Kaia Gerber as his Vogue cover star in the process, who posed for firm forum favorite Steven Meisel and artist Anna Weyant. In the first and second of the three collectable covers (below), Kaia is dressed by Grace Coddington in looks from Jacobs’ Spring 2024 collection.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“YES! I love everything. Meisel is back at US Vogue, Kaia giving us her best work in a long time, and in that Marc Jacobs collection. What a dream!” immediately exclaimed ReneSanchez.

“I have to say, this really caught me off guard. The art direction here is stunning. There’s a great mix of fashion, beauty and art. Vogue should definitely think outside the box more often with their covers. Plus, we’ve got Meisel back on Vogue!” heralded Kenny.

“Very fun and surprising!” chimed in LastNight.

Also very much a fan was MModa. “Spectacular! The issue will be a Christmas gift to myself. Absolutely love the full-body cover. I love the Marc Jacobs evening dress, the hair, the makeup, and the high-fashion drama. The colors look delicious. I love that the issue is edited by the brilliant Marc Jacobs. A fantastic way to end the year,” they applauded.

“I’m into this, and I’m not even a massive Marc Jacobs fan,” confessed vogue28. “This level of fun, joy, and playfulness is precisely what’s missing from fashion magazines nowadays. Those covers with Kaia Gerber by Steven Meisel are delightful, so vibrant and visually arresting.”
