Emma Corrin [1] isn't putting on airs in the latest issue of Vogue [2]. While fashion covers typically showcase severe looks and solemn expressions, the magazine's August 2022 issue spotlights Corrin's approachable smile and sunny essence. "My grin really says it all," the 26-year-old actor, who is perhaps most known for their portrayal of Princess Diana [3] in "The Crown," wrote on Instagram [4].
The cover shows Corrin reaching for a baseball cap, exposing their platinum, overgrown pixie [5]. Also visible is Corrin's armpit hair [6], which again offers a nice change from the perfectly plucked, ultra-manicured covers of yore. Their makeup is minimal, consisting of some foundation and nude lipstick, if that. (Jimmy Paul [7] was the hairstylist for the shoot, while Dick Page [8] was the makeup artist.)
Corrin has continued to keep their hair short since their big chop ahead of award season [9] in 2021. At the time, Corrin's hairstylist Daniel Martin said they were inspired by nostalgic '90s heartthrobs like Leonardo DiCaprio [10] and Brad Pitt [11]. "The past six months is all about boys," Martin said.
Corrin, who came out as nonbinary [12] last year, spoke to Vogue about their gender presentation and evolving identity. "In my mind, gender just isn't something that feels fixed," they said, "and I don't know if it ever will be; there might always be some fluidity there for me."
