Meghan Markle Guest Edits the September Issue of British 'Vogue'
Dedicated to 15 fearless women including Adwoa Aboah and Gemma Chan.
The Duchess of Sussex makes history as British Vogue‘s first-ever guest editor for the publication’s September issue. Dubbed as “Forces for Change,” the upcoming issue has been dedicated to 15 “fearless women,” including Adwoa Aboah, Gemma Chan, Laverne Cox, Jameela Jamil and Adut Akech.
According to WWD, Her Royal Highness has included special content like a conversation between her and former US First Lady Michelle Obama, and an interview by Prince Harry with the ethologist and primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall. “These last seven months have been a rewarding process, curating and collaborating with Edward Enninful [the title’s editor in chief] to take the year’s most-read fashion issue and steer its focus to the values, causes and people making an impact in the world today,” said the Duchess.
“Through this lens I hope you’ll feel the strength of the collective in the diverse selection of women chosen for the cover as well as the team of support I called upon within the issue to help bring this to light. I hope readers feel as inspired as I do, by the ‘Forces for Change’ they’ll find within these pages.”
The cover features the 15 women appearing in a grid with the 16th panel designed to mimic a mirror for the reader’s reflection which you can have a look at below. The “Forces for Change” issue hits newsstands on August 2 being the magazine’s most important edition of 2019.
