Our forums have been pretty excited about the release of Vogue‘s April edition, even with Adele’s blockbuster cover still on newsstands. The Cover Rumor Thread has been rife with debate about who might surface on Vogue‘s upcoming cover, with names like Emilia Clarke and Gwen Stefani being thrown around. Imagine our surprise when Rihanna‘s gorgeous new cover emerged today. Currently also on the cover of the British edition, Rihanna poses up a storm in a sequined Tom Ford dress as she emerges from the water (quite the trend this April) before the lens of photographic duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.

Mark E

She’s been on a brief hiatus from the world of fashion to concentrate on acting, but now Cara Delevingne returns to her roots for a high-profile advertising campaign (because who wouldn’t, right?).
