Our sentiment remains unchanged: the German edition of Vogue has significantly declined in quality compared to its earlier days. Since Kerstin Weng took the helm as head of editorial content in 2021, the magazine’s output has been a mixed bag, with a noticeable lean towards the less favorable side. Recent covers featuring celebrities like Tilda Swinton, Emilia Schüle, Emma Corrin, Heike Makatsch, and Sandra Hüller have been disappointing failures. However, Weng seems to be making strides to rectify this by featuring the legendary Nadja Auermann on the cover of Vogue Germany for May 2025. This iconic German model, once recognized by the Guinness Book of Records for having the longest legs in the modeling industry, graces the cover captured by photographer Scott Trindle. In this minimalist cover shot, Auermann showcases her natural beauty without makeup, donning a chic cream jacket from the Marni Spring 2025 collection.

“QUEEN! I don’t speak German, but the title should be THE BEST MODEL IN THE WORLD!” exclaimed user DK92 after viewing the stunning cover.
“I absolutely LOVE Nadja Auermann and I’m thrilled to see her featured!” expressed VanillaCrush enthusiastically.
Another admirer, vogue28, shared, “Nadja Auermann on the cover of Vogue Germany is truly a reason to celebrate! I’m so pleased the team opted for a straightforward approach without any gimmicky concepts. Just a breathtaking photograph of a beautiful woman, showcasing her natural elegance without any distractions,” he added.
On the flip side, not all reactions were positive. “Nadja is one of my all-time favorites. She perfectly embodies the ‘femme fatale’ archetype. Her long legs, piercing blue eyes, icy blonde bob, and sharp cheekbones… That’s why I’m not fond of this mature styling. I crave the full-on Helmut Newton fantasy!” articulated Marc10.
“I love Nadja, but the cover does not appeal to me. She looks quite tired,” commented fellow forum member Avonlea.
