Lydia Slater continues to shine at British Harper’s Bazaar. Recently, prominent figures such as Jennifer Aniston, Dua Lipa, Mariah Carey, Pamela Anderson, Rosamund Pike, Jodie Turner-Smith, Claire Foy, and Rebecca Ferguson have appeared on the cover of this Hearst-owned British fashion magazine. The upcoming cover of British Harper’s Bazaar features Rachel Zegler, who will grace the April 2026 edition of the magazine. For her Bazaar UK cover debut, the American actress receives the classic Bazaar cover treatment through the lens of Alexi Lubomirski. Cover shoot stylist Miranda Almond selected a floral design from Simone Rocha’s Spring 2026 collection for the bright, fresh, and revitalizing cover shot.
Rachel Zegler for British Harper’s Bazaar April 2026
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:
“Nordstrom’s catalogue from 2017,” critiqued 90sfan upon checking out the cover.
“Kudos to the photographer who managed to take such bad, mediocre photos of Rachel. Or, kudos to the editor who chose them. Knowing that these people are being paid for such subpar work… I can’t!” expressed a majorly underwhelmed WAVES.
“None of these pictures are bad; they’re just uninteresting, like her,” mepps chimed in.
Yet not everyone was disappointed. “An unexpected cover choice. It’s not someone I’ve seen featured very often in UK publications, so I like the newness,” tigerrouge appreciated.
“Must admit that this cover is a sight for sore eyes after that rather glum Rebecca Ferguson cover. The colours here are delightful and I love the floral backdrop too. The cover itself is light, airy and feels like quintessential UK Bazaar. Not the biggest fan of Rachel Zegler but she has photographed nicely here,” voiced vogue28.
