Candice Swanepoel, Ashley Graham, Isabeli Fontana & More Bring the Glamour to the Summer 2025 Covers of V Magazine

Make no mistake that Stephen Gan at V Magazine has a penchant for models. For V’s Spring 2025 edition, Gan (who has served as editor-in-chief from the jump in 199) welcomed a selection of the modelling industry’s finest as cover stars. Names like Lara Stone, Eva Herzigova, Alex Consani, Amelia Gray, and Imaan Hammam graced the issue via the lens of Inez & Vinoodh for a series of collectable black and white covers. Issue #154 for Summer 2025 sees Gan endorse Candice Swanepoel, Marina Ruy Barbosa, Ashley Graham, Isabeli Fontana, Adut Akech, Abby Champion, Lin Xiang Xiang, Hyunjoo Hwang, and Ning Jinyi as V Magazine cover stars. The cover stars dial up the glamour in looks from Renato Amano, Splash Atelier, Ocean Savage (and more) as photographer Lufré snaps away.

“I love Candice’s cover. There’s something [Richard] Avedon about it,” enthused Squizree.

“Gorgeous! Love Candice,” admired forum member bluestar.

“Absolutely gorgeous!” exclaimed Deleted Member 164735.

Sharing the same sentiments was Alquimista, commenting: “Gorgeous covers. WOW!”

Cocteau Stone voiced: “I’m really liking Lufré’s work here. So rich, and high octane.”

“The covers photographed by Lufré are absolutely EVERYTHING! He understood the assignment, and then some. They’re electric. So fierce, captivating, and I’m genuinely at a loss when selecting just one favorite,” chimed in vogue28.
