Summary

Vodianova Summer Cover

Vogue France chose Natalia Vodianova for its summer cover after learning of her pregnancy early this year.
The cover features her in a blue mini dress that accentuates her baby bump, noted on the magazine’s Instagram.
Antoine Arnault, CEO of Berluti and son of LVMH patriarch Bernard Arnault, appears beside her and recalled meeting her on a 2008 Louis Vuitton shoot, calling her aura “undefinable” in a 2017 interview.

History

Historical Context

In 1984 Bernard Arnault bought the struggling Boussac group, gaining Christian Dior and later anchoring the luxury conglomerate LVMH formed in 1987. A 2008 Louis Vuitton campaign starring Antoine Arnault set a visual precedent echoed by Natalia Vodianova’s 2024 Vogue France cover. LVMH’s 2024 revenue of €84.68 billion shows how such celebrity-brand pairings now amplify a multi-billion-dollar empire.
