While coincidentally sitting in the airport in London, the supermodel expressed her excitement on Instagram this morning, saying that the cover, shot by Patrick Demarchelier, is “now one of my favorite covers.” Hadid comes across as a bona fide Brit girl on the cover, wearing a Topshop sweater (she’s the current face of the brand) and Bally leather jacket.
In her interview for the magazine, Hadid speaks to how she and best friend Kendall Jenner balance each other out, saying “Kendall’s more guarded. I’m more feisty. I don’t want to say outgoing, because she is really outgoing once you get to know her. And when we’re both having fun, she makes me a lot more spontaneous. It’s a good balance. But neither of us likes to stay out past 11.” Hey, supermodels understandably need their beauty sleep.
