V Magazine always gets it right. Remember Brit Brit‘s “The Bitch Is Back And Better Than Ever”? Or their 2012 Youth Quake issue, featuring goth-pop princesses Charli XCX, Sky Ferreira and Grimes? Or Madonna and Katy Perry‘s S-S-S-&-M-M-M-inspired shoot last summer?
They’ve just done it again.
In a move that feels like fan-fiction plucked straight from my mind, the fashion mag has selected FKA twigs, Sam Smith, Jessie Ware and Tinashe (pronounced slay-na-shay) to grace the covers of their forthcoming Music issue (V93), out on January 15. That’s right: The Aquarius Queen reigns supreme on the cover of a magazine. That’s my girl!
The photos, shot by Inez & Vinoodh, are all bold and delicious, from Jessie’s leather jacket smolder to twigs’ spellbinding hot bo-deh to Tinashe’s topless reign. Even Sam, who’s usually seen buttoned up to the chin, has loosened up his collar and given us some skin for a George Michael-inspired look.
And it only gets better: Legends are involved too. Tinashe is interviewed by Patti LaBelle inside the issue, while Sam Smith speaks with Chaka Khan. It’s like Divas Live in interview form!
Amazing all around.
