Exciting transformations are happening at Vanity Fair headquarters. Reports from April indicated that Radhika Jones would be stepping down as editor-in-chief after a remarkable seven-year journey. In June, Condé Nast confirmed that Mark Guiducci, previously associated with Vogue, would take on the significant role of the publication’s first-ever global editorial director, ultimately filling the void left by Jones. Despite these substantial changes, Vanity Fair continues to thrive, showcasing star power for its September 2025 issue, featuring the iconic Jennifer Aniston on the cover. Aniston, a Hollywood legend and the mastermind behind the award-winning hair care line LolaVie, shines in the cover photo captured by renowned photographer Norman Jean Roy. This marks her return to the magazine, with her last appearance dating back to September 2005. Two decades later, Aniston showcases a stunning back profile, styled by Paul Cavaco in a breathtaking floor-length Valentino gown designed by Alessandro Michele.
