I have never heard of him but Olly looks cute and at least there is interesting fashion in sight.

He's a singer and actor, he was in the band Years & Years, I don't know if they were that successful in the US, but they were big in the UK, he also represented the UK at Eurovision 2024. As an actor, he was most notably in It's a Sin by Russell T Davies (Queer as Folk, Doctor Who).

I've received my print subscription copy - 160 pages.

Because of the type of magazine that Tatler is, having a fella on the front isn't unusual, in the same way it wouldn't be weird to see men on the front of Vanity Fair or The Face. And because it's a social magazine rather than a woman's fashion magazine, you don't see any special content for the March or September issues, although you will get new season ads, because the readership has the means for it.

Inside front cover gatefold ad is for Dior. Back page is Chanel Haute Joaillerie. There's also a full page ad with Kendall for 'VOGUE WORLD: HOLLYWOOD' that's happening on 26th October in Los Angeles.

There's a jewellery edit, VALET OF THE ROCKS shot by Mark Cant, then the 16-page fashion edit PALACE INTRIGUE, shot by Jack Waterlot, which takes its lead from the V&A's Marie Antoinette exhibition.

Articles include the 12-page cover story/interview, 'New Money for Old Pope', about Pope Leo XIV and 'big-spending American believers', an interview with Florence Otedola AKA DJ Cuppy, and the reality of the modern British aristocracy.

Any new ads other than what is posted on the forum?

The Dior series seems to have one extra shot that hasn't been included in the F/W 2025/26 thread, but people seem to care so little about that campaign, the thread's been relegated to the third page.

2PG Armani is Liu Wen shots that have been included in the thread, 4PG Fendi has already been seen, 4PG Chanel has already been seen - and they don't look any better in print, they look like they're selling clothes to teenagers so they can play at being a lady.

Jewellery campaigns, I don't think anyone's that interested in them.

Thank you. That is not a lot of fashion ads. I know that we will see more ads in the upcoming September fashion magazines.
