“Sisterhood Of Megastars”: 40 Iconic Women Come Together For History-Making British Vogue Shoot
40 legendary women gathered together for a history-making photoshoot for British Vogue’s March 2024 issue.
The monumental cover marks the end of an era, as it is the final edition crafted by Edward Enniful, who was at the helm for six and a half years as British Vogue’s editor-in-chief.
Celebrities from London, New York, Paris, Milan, Los Angeles, and other corners of the globe gathered in one studio for the unprecedented move that only British Vogue could pull off. As the shoot unfolded, 40 of the world’s most renowned women were together under one roof, “as if from a dream,” British Vogue said on Instagram.

Calling it a “sisterhood of megastars,” British Vogue described the moment as a true show of unity that was pieced together by the greatest names in “fashion, Hollywood, and beyond.”
“Bonded by magnificence, purpose, and a previous appearance on the cover, a sisterhood of megastars gathered for a once-in-a-lifetime photoshoot,” British Vogue wrote. “When the initial idea for the cover was ignited, there was only one question: Would 40 of the most booked and blessed women on Earth actually make it to one studio in Manhattan, on one day in December, to take one image together? Spoiler alert: They came.”
It was a grand goodbye to Enninful, who has been with the magazine for more than half a decade

The remarkable achievement serves as a fitting farewell to British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enniful, who has been with the magazine for more than half a decade. For his final edition, Enniful wrote that he wanted to dedicate the cover to women because it is women who shaped British Vogue for more than a century.
“It was clear to all of us on the team that no one woman could or should encapsulate these past few years for the magazine. What we needed was a group to lean into the power of the collective, to bring to life what I hope has been a daring, disruptive, and evolutionary period in Vogue’s history,” Enniful wrote about his final cover story.
Enniful acknowledged that bringing all 40 of the megastars together on the same day at the same venue was no small feat.
“Everyone was in the highest of spirits, and it was fun to witness even the most worldly of stars’ jaws hit the floor at a never-before-seen gathering. ‘To get one of these women on a cover takes months,’ whistled Miley in that deadpan way of hers. ‘To get 40? Unheard of,’” Enniful wrote.

“That’s a whole lot of power in one room,” read another comment on British Vogue’s social media post.
Many of those who graced the cover also expressed their affection for Enniful. Model Cara Delevingne said: “We love you @edward_enninful,” while tennis legend Serena Williams added: “You are a star love you!”
