1. Naomi Campbell Joins Cindy, Christy, and Linda on the September covers of Vogue and British Vogue

The September issues are here—with a double whammy cover reveal from British and American Vogue editions. Both glossies are running a catchup with the mononymous runway legends Linda, Naomi, Cindy, and Christy. Ahead of Apple+ The Super Models airing next month, the quartet posed for Rafael Pavarotti in New York City, styled by Edward Enninful, whose own rise has been in parallel with the supermodels over the last three decades.  The accompanying article by Sally Singer is a must-head for context about how the foursome have stayed so relevant, adapting to the changing tides of fashion, and creating the very mold for what a super model even is. In the words of Gui Palau: “They were like fashion’s Spice Girls!”

2. Edris Elba Covers Forbes Africa

“I’m incredibly honored to be featured on the cover of @FORBESAFRICA August/September issue where I share the exciting wide-ranging work, I’ve been fortunate to undertake on the continent.” said Edris Elba while announcing his August/September Forbes Africa cover.

The movie star and philanthropist went ahead to say:

It continues to be the privilege of a lifetime to give back to Africa’s creative and cultural industry, a wellspring of wealth and agency for our youth. I’m thrilled about the Creative Academies we are working towards in Ghana, Sierra Leone and Tanzania and the ambitious development project of building a world-class afro-dynamic eco-city on Sherbro Island off the coast of Sierra Leone with my business partner Siaka Stevens.

This project is the first of its kind and an inspiring example of the promise, power and potential that exists when the Government and the Private Sector cooperate in Public Private Partnerships. Finally, I highlight the humanitarian work that my wife @sabrinaelba and I have embarked on with IFAD and the progress we have made by teaming up with amazing men and women to lend a helping hand to farmers in rural areas across Africa.

3. Zoe Saldaña covers PORTER

Say hello to PORTER’s new cover star: barrier breaking actress Zoe Saldaña. The record-breaking thespian (she’s the actor with the most films to surpass $2 billion at the global box office) opens up about work ethic, drive, being unapologetically cool, and trying to act cool next to her Special Ops: Lioness co-star Nicole Kidman. The 45-year-old mom-of-three also talked about what she’s got cooking with her production agency, Cinestar, and praised her husband Marco Perego for being the type of partner who allows her to take on as much as she does. On the subject of representation, Saldaña, who is of Black, Latina, Caribbean, and American descent, tells Danielle Prescod: “When you start out and you are a person of color and you are female, you feel like you work twice as hard and it takes twice as long. We are finally reaping the benefits of all the hard labor. I honestly feel like we’re just getting started.” Read the full feature, with fashion styling by Charlotte Blazeby and imagery by Arran & Jules, here.
