Interview continues to feature the who’s who from the world of fashion, entertainment, and beyond via its front covers. Names like Demi Moore, Jennifer Lopez, Lily-Rose Depp, Selena Gomez, Natalie Portman, SZA, Sabrina Carpenter, Jeremy Allen White, Ariana Grande, and Zendaya (alongside Robert Pattinson). Appointed as editor-in-chief in 2021, Mel Otttenberg taps Hailey Bieber for the Spring 2026 edition of Interview magazine. The American model and beauty mogul is profiled by the photographer Theo Liu for the occasion. Styled by Dara, the long-time muse of Saint Laurent creative director Anthony Vaccarello poses in a gold vest, shorts, bunny-inspired headpiece, and boots from Coach.
Hailey Bieber for Interview Magazine Spring 2026
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:
“TERRIBLE! I will pass this issue based on the cover story alone. I do not want to look at something ugly and cheap,” remarked MModa upon checking out the cover.
“Does Hailey Bieber sell magazines? I just don’t know anyone who’s even kind of interested in her,” pointed out an uninterested Lucien112.
“So, Hailey wanted a cover, Mel said OK, and then gave her one of the worst covers in the magazine’s history?” asked an appalled vladhatesyou.
Also not impressed was vogue28. “What an absolutely hideous cover. Admittedly, I have never minded Hailey Bieber, but there’s not one redeeming quality to this. The photography and the styling are horrific! It’s all just rather embarrassing and stupid,” he voiced.
“Despite the disgusting boots and the silly headpiece, I like her expression a lot. Imagine it had been zoomed in? It would’ve been much better,” reasoned WAVES.
