Introducing fashion’s new model trinity: @Palomija, @PreciousLeexoxo and @Jilla.Tequila are #BritishVogue’s April 2023 cover stars. Catwalks are once again under scrutiny for a stark lack of body diversity, but this cover was not conceived as a statement. It is a crowning of an all-powerful trio, the supermodels for a new generation. Click the link in bio to read the profile, and see the full story in the new issue, on newsstands Tuesday 21 March.

“This wasn’t part of my original plan,” says @PreciousLeexoxo, one of @BritishVogue’s three April 2023 cover stars. “Getting here meant taking a huge risk and that’s one of the things I’m proudest of, [because] I’m grounded in who I was before I began this journey. Sometimes I think about the kid version of me, the little girl who would be so proud knowing I’ve come this far and managed to stay true to myself.” Click the link in bio to read the profile, and see the full story in the new issue, on newsstands Tuesday 21 March.

Perspective shifts aren’t always easy, especially when you’re the person changing society’s views. “My mother called me a supermodel from the beginning,” says #BritishVogue’s April 2023 cover star @PreciousLeexoxo, who, before rising to prominence in the fashion industry, was an aspiring lawyer. “Back then, I’d get annoyed with her. ‘Supermodel’ wasn’t a word I’d use to describe myself, even once I started ticking off the boxes.” Click the link in bio to read the profile, and see the full story in the new issue, on newsstands Tuesday 21 March.

@Jilla.Tequila isn’t dissimilar to millions of other young women who grew up without seeing themselves represented in fashion, film or television. “I grew up in the ’90s, which were arguably the most toxic years in fashion,” she says in the April 2023 issue. But Kortleve – alongside her friends and fellow @BritishVogue cover stars – is spearheading change.

“I remember during my first seasons I would look at pictures of myself on the runway and think, ’Why do I look so different from everyone else?’” says @Jilla.Tequila in the April 2023 issue of #BritishVogue. “I was comparing myself to other girls, wondering why I felt out of place, and I realised that it was because I’d never seen anyone who looked like me in those spaces. I had to change the way I looked at things.” Post fashion month, with international catwalks once again under scrutiny, click the link in bio to read the profile, and see the full story in the new issue, on newsstands Tuesday 21 March.

@Palomija has become one of modelling’s tastemakers in just under a decade. Omnipresent in galleries, on billboards and in era-defining fashion editorials, Elsesser is her generation’s cool girl. Still, when it’s time to step in front of the camera, she’s anything but aloof. “I always think about the 15-year-old girl sitting in her bedroom in Milwaukee who needs to see someone with boobs or a belly represented,” she says in the April 2023 issue of @BritishVogue. “I want her to know we can be chic, beautiful and cool – to see all the possibilities.” Click the link in bio to read the profile, and see the full story in the new issue, on newsstands Tuesday 21 March.

“Even if I threw in the towel tomorrow, I’d know I made a difference,” says @Palomija in the April 2023 issue of #BritishVogue. “No matter what else happens in our lives, we know that in some small corner of the world we’ve changed something and not just for ourselves. How many people get to say that?” Click the link in bio to read the profile, and see the full story in the new issue, on newsstands Tuesday 21 March.
