Democratic candidate Kamala Harris is back on the cover of the influential fashion magazine "Vogue" just under a month before the US presidential election. In the picture by famous photographer Annie Leibovitz, the 59-year-old sits in a dark blazer with a matching silk blouse, smiling slightly in an armchair. She is wearing pearl earrings and has a small US flag on her lapel. The magazine headline reads "The candidate for our times".

The current US Vice President Harris is running against Republican Donald Trump in the presidential election on November 5. The first "Vogue cover" with Harris before she took office as Vice President sparked controversy at the beginning of 2021. At the time, the Democrat was seen in a blazer and sneakers against a pink and green background.
Numerous commentators and users on social media criticized the image at the time as disrespectful or technically inferior and therefore inappropriate for the cover portrait of the soon to be most powerful woman in the country.
This time too, "Vogue" did not only receive positive reactions. Some users on social media wrote that the photo had been edited too much and that Harris looked like a 39-year-old. Trump's supporters criticized the decision to include Harris on the cover.
