“Waiting for the Right Man”
Chalamet makes history with ‘Vogue’ cover

Timothée Chalamet is already a star in Hollywood and on his way to becoming a fashion icon. His cover photo in the magazine “Vogue” is special. The actor is the “incarnation of a modern man,” explains the magazine’s editor-in-chief.
Timothée Chalamet is not only one of the most sought-after actors in the world, but also a fashion icon for many. It’s no surprise, then, that the ‘Dune’ star has been given an honor that no one has been able to boast of. He is the first man to appear alone on the cover of British “Vogue” in the upcoming October issue – a first in the magazine’s 106-year history.
Previously, men only made it to the cover when accompanied by women. For the first time, by the way, the Austrian actor Helmut Berger alongside Marisa Berenson in 1970. Since 2017, Edward Enninful has been managing the fortunes of British Vogue as editor-in-chief and he too initially hesitated to leave the cover to be a man alone, as he writes. .
“Do men desperately need more places to shine, I wondered. The answer is, of course, no.” But at the same time, he wanted to say goodbye to the old-fashioned view and way of thinking that fashion is “designed strictly only for the gender one identifies with. […] Maybe I was just waiting for the right man.”
So this one came with Timothée Chalamet. Thanks to the star, the historic moment feels “effortless” and “like no problem” on paper. The star is the “incarnation of a modern man, both as an actor and as a person”, whose fashion sense inspires both men and women. Enninful was “elated and honored to have him as British Vogue’s first solo male cover star.”
