Since taking over from Edward Enninful, Chioma Nnadi has had some very large shoes to fill at the helm of British Vogue. Despite covers featuring stars like Nicole Kidman, Anok Yai, and Olivia Rodrigo recently, it would be an understatement to say that the covers lack pizazz. Nnadi, who has been the head of editorial content since 2024, showcases Wunmi Mosaku as a British Vogue cover girl with the release of the October 2026 edition of the magazine. Photographed by Daniel Jackson and styled by Julia Sarr-Jamois, the Nigerian-British actress is seen in a fluffy electric blue coat from Louise Trotter’s Bottega Veneta.
Wunmi Mosaku on the Cover of British Vogue October 2026
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:
“I like it because of the strong colors,” instantly admired kokobombon.
DK92 used the word “beautiful” to describe the cover.
“She’s beautiful. I’m happy to see her on Vogue,” applauded jeje10.
Yet not everyone was entirely convinced. “I had no clue who Wunmi Mosaku was until a quick Google search. I’m afraid that the cover of British Vogue does absolutely zilch for me. I like the vivid blue, and that’s about it. Overall, the cover is bold and eye-catching but feels more suited for a publication like i-D, not Vogue,” critiqued vogue28.
“It screams Teen Vogue,” chimed in Bertrando3.
“Such a shame because even if I’m not crazy about the cover, Wunmi looks gorgeous. Such a commanding stare,” voiced forum member WAVES.
