Lydia Slater, who was appointed editor-in-chief of British Harper’s Bazaar in 2020, continues to demonstrate some serious pull when it comes to securing cover stars for the magazine. Last year, Slater gave up the cover to the likes of Victoria Beckham, Lupita Nyong’o, Venus Williams, Kate Winslet, and Sienna Miller. Lily-Rose Depp starred on last month’s cover, while Priyanka Chopra Jonas graces the cover of British Harper’s Bazaar for March 2025. Certainly no stranger down at your local newsstand, the Indian actress and film producer receives the quintessential Bazaar cover treatment as she poses before the lens of photographer Alexi Lubomirski. In the sun-lit cover image, Priyanka works a sheer, silk, and beaded creation from the Fendi Spring 2025 collection by Kim Jones (as selected for the occasion by cover shoot stylist Miranda Almond).

“What is Priyanka Chopra promoting? It’s impressive how she keeps landing big covers with such a flop career,” immediately discredited Hchloe.

Sharing the same sentiments was blueorchid. “If you had a gun to my head, I would not be able to name a single project she’s ever been in. Why is she pushed so hard?” they asked.

“This cover is better than her career here in the states,” laughed justaguy.

“YAWN. I am also bored of Alexi Lubomirski. Not impressed by his photography. This cover sucks,” critiqued forum member proseccotabis.

“I do love the warmth the cover radiates, but overall it’s all just so flat, boring, and lifeless. Priyanka Chopra is the definition of ‘go girl, give us nothing’ here,” voiced vogue28.

MModa agreed, echoing: “I like the styling and warm hues. However, the cover photograph looks like a mug shot. There must have been a much better option!”
