Throughout 2025, we’ve been pretty much living for W Magazine. Issue after issue, cover after cover, the New York-based publication continues to go from strength to strength. Names like Zendaya, Chappell Roan, HoYeon Jung, Sydney Sweeney, Lana Del Rey, and Addison Rae have been featured on W since the start of the year. Sara Mooves, who has acted as editor-in-chief since 2019, taps Jennifer Lawrence as a W Magazine cover star with the release of Volume #6 2025. The American actress is celebrated across three collectable covers, shot by a trio of masters of their own craft. Moones called upon the German photographer Wolfgang Tillmans, the French multimedia artist Philippe Parreno, and American painter Elizabeth Peyton for the occasion.
Jennifer Lawrence for W Magazine Volume #6
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:
“Well, I don’t like any of them and actually find them pretty terrible,” critiqued thenewclassic upon first look.
“They all suck,” mepps chimed in.
“For me, the art thing is always difficult to read if your artist shot her like a regular fashion photographer would. Maybe it’s time to remove that inner complex of fashion against art and really embrace fashion photography as an art. It’s all very blank,” voiced forum member Lola701.
Jeje10 commented: “I know art is subjective, but W‘s ‘Art Issues’ are always bland.”
“This is the best example that art photographers are SO BAD at doing fashion shoots,” stated 90sfan.
“What a disappointment after those three Meisel-shot covers and then Addison Rae. The Philippe Parreno cover is the strongest out of the three, but I’m still not impressed. This feels like a complete non-event and a massively missed opportunity,” shared vogue28.
