Bella Hadid, Kaia Gerber and Emily Ratajkowski are among the 100 stars featured in the September issue of Vogue Italia.
The theme of the magazine, 100 Covers, 100 People, 100 Stories, displays 100 individuals, each owning their own cover. Not only Gerber did score a cover, but her supermodel mother, Cindy Crawford, landed on one as well.
Hadid put on her smoldering stare on the cover, going braless and wearing a sharp leather blazer and a matching pencil skirt. She wore her raven hair down with minimal makeup, allowing her natural beauty to shine through.
Ratajkowski was decked in a sleek black tank top and a silver anorak draped over one shoulder.
Gerber, on the other hand, posed up a storm for a full-length shot, donning gray muscle top and matching underwear. Crawford too wore the same shade of blazer and sweater, posing with her hands wrapped around her waist.
Other stars in the lineup include Chloe Sevigny, Irina Shayk, Pat Cleveland and Saskia De Brauw.
For this issue, the magazine featured personalities of different ages, ethnicities, lifestyles and industries to send a message of diversity and inclusivity. The magazine’s editor-in-chief Emanuele Farneti wrote, “We have created 100 printed covers. Each of them is dedicated to an individual protagonist—different by age, physical appearance and the color of their skin.”
“It is the portrait of a community that now finds itself making a fresh start, within the new context of distancing and restrictions,” she added in the editor’s letter.

Last April, when we decided to leave our cover white, we were convinced that silence was the right message of respect and reserve” says Vogue Italia’s Editor-in-Chief @EFarneti. “Now, instead, with the onset of a new season that will in many ways be crucial, we think this is the moment to raise our voices and talk about hope and beauty. For the first time, we have shot and printed 100 covers. Each of them is dedicated to an individual protagonist. It is the portrait of a community that, having waited diligently, now finds itself making a fresh start”. The creative director @FerdinandoVerderi, who conceived the project, explains the process: “Almost a performance lasting days, with its succession of photo shoots and its artistic essentiality. The idea is very simple: more is more.” tells Verderi. “A challenge to the canons of quantity with which fashion has always measured itself. A celebration of diversity and uniqueness, a desire for rebirth that, once printed, becomes a collective experience. We shot the 100 cover stars individually in a simple studio in NY with Mark Borthwick, the historic Vogue Italia figure who returns after decades. We casted 100 people with interesting stories, talented people in the most diverse fields, icons of the past, people who have nothing to do with fashion, of all ages. We then asked each of them to tell us the story of their life in a minute. A project that aims to become a document of our times”. —— Full credits: Editor-in-chief @EFarneti Creative director @FerdinandoVerderi Casting Directors @pg_dmcasting @samuel_ellis @ DM Fashion Studio Hair @Jawaraw @artpartner using @dysonhair Makeup @SusieSobol_makeup @julianwatsonagency Post Production @SipkeVisser @frisianpost On set production @Alexispf @apstudioinc
