COVER TO COVER

“This year saw some landmark covers, with The Fashion Spot reporting more racial diversity than ever, with size and gender representation more than doubled. The September issues saw people of colour shining this year, with Beyonce’s Vogue US cover one of the most talked about thanks to it being the first cover shot by an African-American photographer, 23-year-old Tyler Mitchell.

Other notable covers of the year included the Beckham family’s UK Vogue cover, as it was the first time the whole clan has officially appeared in a magazine. Just this month, Yalitza Aparicio Martinez, the star of Alfonso Cuaron’s acclaimed film Roma, was featured in Vogue Mexico in what many are saying is the first instance of the magazine putting a woman with indigenous features on the cover. While the fashion industry has a long way to go in terms of embracing diversity in a non-tokenistic way, increased representation is a start.” — R.H
