Katy Perry covers L’Officiel‘s Summer 2021 issue
Change is in the air for Katy Perry! The legendary pop singer and American Idol judge is the latest covergirl for L’Officiel, fronting the magazine’s Summer 2021 issue. In conversation with pop culture commentator Evan Ross Katz, Perry discusses her upcoming music, Las Vegas residency, and taking a break during lockdown. She also talks about her newest journey: mothering her daughter, Daisy, whom she gave birth to last August. “When you have a child, you have someone who looks at you and doesn’t know anything on your resume, doesn’t know anything about your bank account, doesn’t know anything, doesn’t care, and just loves you. Unconditional love. It’s just…everything I think I was looking for,” says Perry.

Mango’s sunny new seasonal campaign is here
The weather might not look like it on the East Coast right now, but summer has indeed arrived. And so, let Mango’s new The Sun Is Everywhere campaign be the vitamin D influx you need in the meantime. The images, lensed by Eddie Wrey, are inspired by the soul of 1970s Ibiza (yes, please!) and the feeling of freedom—which comes through in the likes of floral bucket hats, tie dye, psychedelic prints, and crochet gilets. Starring some of our model favorites—Louise Follain, Mélodie Vaxelaire, Mukasa Kakonge, Klara Kristin, Jill Kortleve, and Alberto Perazzolo—it’s enough to tide us over until the mercury really does decide to rise in NYC.
