Hits and Misses: Magazine Covers of February 2024


There’s always a strong sense of renewal in the air whenever the February issues of our fave fashion glossies drop. It’s our first look at the new season and the vast majority of magazines came out this month in full force, in an attempt to impress – and succeeded. From Vogue Turkey eating up the other editions of Vogue with a “sharp, sexy and minimalist” Grace Elizabeth cover to American ELLE proving you can never truly go wrong with a flawless portrait cover image of Penélope Cruz. However, on the opposite end of the spectrum, the team behind Flaunt‘s February 2024 cover shoot ultimately rendered Cindy Crawford unrecognizable and just how did American Harper’s Bazaar manage to do THE Gisele Bündchen a disservice?

Scroll further to see which February 2024 covers made the cut (and which didn’t) this month, all in accordance to theFashionSpot’s unfiltered forum members:

HIT | Vogue Turkey with Grace Elizabeth by Yulia Gorbachenko

“Look at Vogue Turkey eating up the vast VAST majority of Vogue editions! First the flawless Rosie Huntington-Whiteley cover and now another equally as stunning offering with Graze Elizabeth. This right here is gorgeous, easily the strongest Vogue cover I’ve seen this month. Sharp, sexy, minimalist, slightly suggestive… I love it,” [vogue28]

HIT | Vogue Japan with Selena Gomez by Michael Bailey Gates

“I’m able to admire and appreciate this, a thousand times more than Selena’s Vogue Mexico cover. This is far more simple, more chic and far more easy on the eye. Also love how she’s wearing the Prada coat, as well as the black and white photography teamed with the orange Vogue Japan masthead. A nicely done cover, IMO.” [vogue28]

MISS | Vanity Fair with Simone Biles by Adrienne Raquel

“This girl is an amazing athlete, and is also 4ft 8 (142cm). PLEASE give her a chance instead of shrouding her in some disgusting pink pillowcase. The styling is so bad. It’s very distracting from her face.” [Kite]
