English actress Florence Pugh, American poet Amanda Gorman, American socialite Hailey Bieber, and Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny take the covers of American Harper’s BAZAAR Magazine‘s September 2022 Issue. In charge of photography was John Edmonds, with styling from Kelly-Ann Hughes, Yashua Simmons, and Samira Nasr, set design by Jesse Kaufmann, and production by Fabio Mayor and Ella Knight at Mayor Productions, and Eric Jacobson and Michael Wysocki at Hen’s Tooth Productions. Beauty is work of hair stylists Shon Hyungsun Ju, LaRae Burress, Evanie Frausto, and Christopher Vargas, makeup artists Alex Babsky, Joanna Simkin, and Raisa Flowers, groomer Ybelka Hurtado, and manicurists Jenni Draper, Emi Kudo, Gina Edwards, and Natalia Paola Calderon.
I feel like I am now getting into this groove in my career where I know what I can take, what I can give, and what I will not accept anymore. – Florence Pugh
When my mom was growing up, she was told by the elders around her, ‘Go change the world.’ And in my generation, we’re told to go save the world. It’s completely different stakes when you look at those two sentences. The world that I and so many other members of Gen Z are living in is one of emergency, is one of destruction. – Amanda Gorman
He [Justin] is still the person that I wanna be rushing back to. I might fly somewhere and go do a job, but I can’t wait to come back and hang out. And I feel like that’s because of the effort that’s been put in on both sides. At the end of the day, like, he’s my best friend, but it still does take a lot of work to make it work. And then I know eventually, when kids come in the picture, that’s going to be a whole other season of navigating how to make that work. – Hailey Bieber
Maybe at the very beginning of my career, I tried to pretend I was someone that I’m not, but I learned that that’s the way artists lose themselves. It’s because they forgot about themselves – them as a person – and invented a fictitious personality. – Bad Bunny
