Fashion Royalty - Vogue's Centenary Issue

100 years of Vogue is upon us, and to grace the cover of the centenary issue is none other than HRH the Duchess of Cambridge.

The issue, which will be on sale May 5th, features a stunning 10 page shoot - photographed in Norfolk close to where Kate lives and spends time with her family. The photos reflect the Duchess' natural radiant beauty and her love for the Great British countryside. She isn't the first royal to be photographed by Vogue, with Diana, Princess of Wales, Princess Margaret, the Queen Mother, and Queen Elizabeth being captured on film in the past 100 years.

Vogue editor in chief, Alexandra Schulman said, "It's a huge honour and incredibly exciting for us to have HRH The Duchess of Cambridge featuring on the cover of British Vogue and as part of our centenary issue," She also added that "For me personally it has been a wonderful experience to have had the opportunity to work with her on this, and I am immensely proud of what we have produced. This special issue of the magazine is very close to my heart as it had to reflect on 100 years of British Vogue, and so I am hugely grateful that we have been able to continue with our tradition of outstanding royal portraiture with these pictures."
