Being on the cover of a fashion magazine is a crucial moment in a model’s career, but being on the cover of a prestigious fashion magazine such as the American Vogue is quite a privilege and a dream come true for any model.
Over the years, most famous celebrities and models have graced Vogue magazine’s cover.
At the very beginning, in 1892, Vogue was just a weekly newspaper, but later on, in 1973 it became a monthly issue which immediately gained popularity and it was also published in several countries.
