Vogue’s Global Editor Anna Wintour Finally Breaks Her Silence On Kamala Harris’ Controversial Cover
Kamala Harris recently appeared on the cover of Vogue and it sparked a huge controversy all across the globe. Reportedly, fans were pissed at the magazine for lightening the colour-complexion of the Vice President of the United States. Vogue’s global editor, Anna Wintour is finally breaking her silence on the same.
Wintour, who is a notable icon in the fashion industry, defended Vogue’s cover of Kamala and revealed that it was chosen by the MVP herself.
The Vogue cover was chosen against the wish of Kamala Harris who in fact, wanted a more formal cover rather than wearing a pastel blue Michael Kors suit. In an interview with the New York Times, Anna Wintour said, “Obviously we have heard and understood the reaction to the print cover and I just want to reiterate that it was absolutely not our intention to, in any way, diminish the importance of the vice president-elect’s incredible victory.”
Netizens were comparing Harris’ cover with Michelle Obama and Hilary Clinton’s which were way more professional than this one. Robin Givhan, who happens to be a fashion critic at the Washington Post bashed the publication for the cover and wrote that the picture, “did not give Kamala Harris due respect. It was overly familiar … Vogue overstepped. It got too chummy too fast.”
