As we shut out the month of August, it’s time to mirror again on the August 2024 journal covers our fave trend glossies bestowed upon us for the month. Anna Wintour staged a significant journalistic coup by welcoming Jill Biden, First woman of the United States again onto the quilt of American Vogue. Across the pond within the United Kingdom, Chioma Nnadi bestowed upon readers Suki Waterhouse (and her new child daughter) onto British Vogue whereas Eugénie Trochu at Vogue France opted to repurpose a Kendall Jenner shoot (which appeared on US Vogue two months prior). Elsewhere, Susan Sarandon made for ELLE Spain’s shock (but much-welcomed) cowl star whereas we have been left scratching our heads in sheer disbelief over Winona Ryder‘s appearance on Harper’s Bazaar.

Scroll additional to see which August 2024 journal covers made the lower (and which flopped) this month, all in accordance to theFashionSpot’s unfiltered discussion board members:

MISS | US Vogue with Jill Biden by Norman Jean Roy

“Not Anna giving Jill Biden a last minute cover. This is embarrassing on so many levels, even if the actual photo is just OK.” [avonlea002]

HIT | Vogue Spain with Lulu Tenney bu Oliver Hadlee Pearch

“Honestly I love it! There’s energy – so sick of these drab boring SAD covers. This, at least, has a little POP!” [RMDV]

MISS | Glamour with Christina Aguilera by Christine Hahn

“WOW! The cover is a Photoshop disaster! I thought it was a mix of Gwen Stefani and Lady Gaga.” [Bertrando3]

HIT | ELLE Spain with Susan Sarandon by JuanKr

“How long has it been since we saw a cover shot that looks more like a traditional cover shot? It doesn’t have any weird concepts, lifeless modelling, clashing colors…” [tigerrouge]

MISS | Vogue Italia with Karen Elson by Martin Parr

“Tourists on Instagram take better pics than this.” [kokobombon]

MISS | Vogue Korea with Irina Shayk by Philip-Daniel Ducasse

“So underwhelming…” [Ihhbl]

HIT | ELLE China with Lina Zhang by Nick Yang

MISS | Vogue Brazil with Raquel Zimmermann by Chris Colls

“I don’t blame Raquel. She’s giving her authentic interpretation. The real problem here is Vogue Brazil’s frequent lack of vision and creativity.” [aguires]

MISS | US Harper’s Bazaar with Winona Ryder by Liv Liberg

“Personally, I’d sue. For a crime has been committed.” [honeycombchild]

“Perfect summer cover of ELLE with a slight 80s allure.” [WAVES]

MISS | UK Vogue with Suki Waterhouse by Colin Dodgson

MISS | US ELLE with HoYeon Jung by Mario Sorrenti

“It’s not blowing me away. Where are her shoes? I hate when magazines do that.” [Bertrando3]
