I seem to remember seeing this pic at least several years ago, so not recent.

Twitter doing its job by suggesting lots and better pics than the V cover shots befitting Kamala.

It's a terrible photo - I cannot fathom why they would choose a frumpy, unflattering photo of a gorgeous (powerful!) woman who usually photographs really well!

Like the Chucks, though

The Chucks are cute and fine. But we saw better pics of her wearing them from pool reporters as she hopped off/on an airplane to/from her waiting vehicle.
And the point that all parties had agreed to a different pic for the cover. Come on Vogue, do better.

Well, as someone that doesn’t always follow, this controversy made me look up both the pictures. I think in the pink background they are asserting a few gender stereotypes. She comes off as a novice, unassuming, maybe a little green behind the ears. I don’t think it is threatening at all - the clasped hands actually look more agreeable and submissive. The blue powder suit is nice, she is a little too airbrushed. All oh her pictures are good pictures.

I'll assume you don't know - the pink and green is a nod to her sorority - has nothing to do with gender stereotypes - https://aka1908.com/home
First Black sorority, founded in 1908. Her pearls are a nod to the sorority as well.

Is it just me or did they also overly photo shop her so she's almost... blurry?

The one they chose, in Chucks, is WAY better in my opinion - there is so much more life and personality in it. It's also fresh, a new pose and a new energy we've seen from Kamala before; it kind of channels a mix of energy from that awesome dancing gif of hers and the energy of a serious and competent prosecutor. Much more New York, as well.

I think they made the right choice for a fashion magazine. A tad risque, but what's fashion without a surprise?.

The chucks are fine. It's the rest of the pic that make her look ready to rumble - and not in a good way.
Expected so much more for the Vice President of the United States.

PS I do agree the backdrop sucks and her expression has a tinge of "why tf am i standing on pink satin?" Unless she's supposed to be stomping on some symbol of female suppression? Get a semiotician in here...

The pink is for AKA.

And with the way you see the pink backdrop, it looks terrible, like they couldn’t even set it up properly. I get wanting her to seem down to earth or whatever, but the blue one is just so much better

Anna Wintour chose it—not Harris.

Vogue screwed up. Harris looks uncomfortable in both the digital and print cover shots, though the digital cover is more appropriate for a woman who is making history. What I really want to know though is why IRL we only see Harris silent and sitting behind Biden. Her talents cannot be allowed to go to waste, especially with a president who is 78 years-old.

This is more politics than fashion, but my theory is that Biden's strategy is him spreading a unifying message and Harris comes out with the more progressive stuff to appeal to the progressive wing of the party. Right now the country needs the Biden message more.

You're missing the point of the controversy -- Harris's team did not approve the black suit photo at all, and certainly not for the cover. Anna Wintour ignored the agreed upon choices, and literally picked the black suit pic from the discard pile and sent it to print. Ooops.

She definitely chunked up past few months.

Whatevs. I think she looks great. And the fact that we have Kamala Harris on the cover of Vogue while Melania never, ever graced the cover in four years is awesome!

BORING

Vogue’s cover makes the VP look like a thug. I’ll never believe Wintour made a “mistake. This was intentional.

Well, here's one person who won't be paying for it. It's pretty well known that Anna Winter is a racist, isn't it?
