The editor's note talks about the magic of "this time of year" - which is clearly communicated through the cover.

"Though she might not be British, our cover star SZA, made UK history this past summer as only the second Black woman to perform at Glastonbury solo".
We're not even dealing with "firsts" anymore.
At the front of the issue, there's an editorial/interview with Lila Moss, Lily Allen talks trainers, plus an interview with Love Island's Mollie-Mae Hague. Imagine my joy.
The interiors article is a look at Trino Verkade's riad in Marrakesh, plus a Forces for Change/Ebay advertorial with Alva Claire, and a Next advertorial with Eve Vince-Odozi and Ariish Wol.
In the main editorial section, the cover story is followed by Feel the Rush, shot by Jack Day, styled by Kate Phelan, with Lulu Tenney. Don't be rushing to see this. Then interviews with Bill Nighy and Indhu Rubasingham.
That eyelashes-and-nails editorial from current US Vogue has been reprinted here, plus a shortened version of some of that dancing content.
Back page is 'what would Emilia Wickstead do?'
This issue of FULL of advertising of every level, that side of UK Vogue is working hard and seeing results. At close to 300 pages, you're not getting a skinny magazine.
