Sports Illustrated model Kate Upton lands her 1st Vogue cover
But the latest development on the Kate Upton front is actually worth noting: the Sports Illustrated swimsuit model has finally scored a Vogue cover! It’s for Vogue Italia, but still: we wondered aloud whether Upton would ever graduate from a mere photo shoot subject to a true cover girl for the world’s most important fashion magazine… and now it seems it’s finally happened.
The sumptuous cover for Vogue Italia’s November 2012 issue was lensed by Steven Meisel, who also shot Kate’s recent Vogue US spread. The spread unabashedly channels Upton’s bombshell status, with a sheepskin Fendi coat, a patent leather bustier by Patricia Field, Kenneth Jay Lane jewels, big blonde hair and cleavage galore. In case you were still confused, the cover line reads, "SEDUCTIVE." Subtle it’s not.
But hey, a Vogue Italia cover is a Vogue Italia cover! And it may mean Upton is one step closer to the most coveted cover of all: Anna Wintour’s Vogue. Do you think Upton’s got what it takes?
