UK Vogue June 2025 : Bella Hadid by Steven Meisel

I was happy seeing the thread title, but not a single photo stands out to me, maaaybe the one in the Etro top and skirt? But she doesn't look like her heart's in it and Meisel's clearly wasn't either. Her expression in the last photo.... she knows she's not giving what she can. A swing and a miss. But hopefully, this is signaling that Bella will be more active again with modeling.
 
I'm actually quite pleased with this cover and somewhat pleased with the editorial. As usual she has the same facial expression and she looks like she's chocking on water on that last pic. Still better than the last Vogue UK covers...Wish I could buy it in my local city.
 
I worry it's overdoing the whole 'she's a model' idea, so it ends up feeling a bit forced
 
I love everything about this cover, but only from the neck down... The hair looks weird and Bella's face is not digestible at all, she really looks much older than she is!
 
I’ll take it! sure, we’ve seen better days but it’s miles better than what British Vogue has been offering for what it feels like an eternity. I definitely feel this is Chioma going back to Edward’s formula, guess her style shift wasn’t working for anybody.
 
While it's not bad, it could have been miles better, higher, further. Just getting openly tired counting missed opportunities.
 
Given what we've been getting, I'll take this, absolutely.

It's not good to reach the point where you open a thread with trepidation, like I now do with UK Vogue.

EDIT: The editor's letter online at UK Vogue mentions:

I consider British Vogue contributing fashion editor Julia Sarr-Jamois to be a summer-dressing sensei of sorts and the two terrific shoots she styled this month are certainly proof: the first, Some Enchanted Evening, with photographer Daniel Arnold and a fabulous cast of fashion characters on the streets of New York City; the second, shot by Oliver Hadlee Pearch and starring models Imaan Hammam and Vivienne Rohner in the sultriest looks of the season, in The Heat is On.

Of course, nothing looks hotter than a summer romance – if you’re in need of a reminder, turn to the gorgeous shoot of musician Lennon Gallagher and his girlfriend, Isobel Richmond. If their chemistry is anything to go by, London’s new It couple seems destined for many more seasons of love.
 
I think Meisel and Bella have great chemistry and it shows. Not really happy with the cover image cropping, though. Wouldn't mind seeing more color either.
 
Wow, this is absolutely fabulous!
The cover is stunning, she’s giving total 1960s Italian aristocrat model vibes.
I can’t wait to get my hands on this issue!
