Ty Mclennan Videographer Ty Mclennan has become Vogue’s go-to filmmaker, shooting behind the scenes at Paris fashion week and on cover shoots with Anna Sawai. This month he captured rising Australian tennis star Emerson Jones in motion for a digital cover. “I wanted to show how Emerson’s style and tennis artistry blend,” he explains, of his mindset behind the moving image that accompanies the feature ‘Major serve’, from page 65. “Emerson was a natural – bubbly, youthful and a joy to shoot,” he shares of the 17-year-old with the killer forehand who reached the junior world number one ranking in 2024. “The toughest part was just asking Emerson to serve a bit slower.” Lucy Rosiek “It was truly hard to play it cool on set, when I was geeking out…

On a sunny spring morning in Sydney, 27-year-old Australian mogul skier and Winter Olympic gold medallist Jakara Anthony took time out from her intense training schedule for the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Games to join Vogue Australia for her first-ever fashion shoot and cover debut. Styled by acting fashion director Harriet Crawford, Anthony appeared every bit the high-fashion model as she posed for photographer Edward Mulvihill. “Jakara was really keen on Harriet’s vision,” says junior fashion and market editor Isabella Mamas, who assisted on the day. “She was on board for anything and really wanted to push the fashion envelope. “We’re shooting a ski star in January, which is high summer,” Mamas adds. “Harriet mixed the two seasons and brought ski collections from around the world here to highlight Jakara…

SPOT CHECK Polka dots are the easiest of prints and telegraph a youthful, fuss-free summer mood. A ladylike languid silhouette adds finesse. Scan the QR code to shop Vogue’s edit. WIDE-EYED D-shaped shades keep the nostalgia of a classic aviator but add a graphic punch in oversized frames. Go large for an anonymous allure.

Fashion and elite sport may to some seem an unlikely pairing. One an ode to creativity and craft; the other a show of primal physicality. But as we enter 2026, collaborations over the years between two industry giants are evolving and growing into a partnership that could be one of the most consequential and mutually beneficial of recent times. When Caitlin Clark wears Prada ahead of a WNBA game, the star basketballer is expressing her taste and identity – her own personal brand. She’s also putting Prada in front of a community that might never have heard of the Italian fashion house. When her fellow WNBA star Angel Reese wears Thom Browne at the Met Gala, she’s rubbing shoulders with the leading names in fashion and drawing fans’ eyes to…

Kirsty Godso didn’t become the go-to trainer for Hailey Bieber, Kaia Gerber and Olivia Rodrigo overnight. The Auckland-born founder of fitness app Pyro discovered a passion for working out at the gym in her late teens, but didn’t enjoy the accompanying culture of unrealistic language, aesthetics and prioritising short-term success. “I didn’t like all the before-and-after imagery, the bad branding and transactional language, but I loved the hard work, commitment and feeling of change,” the 33-year-old says. “I loved seeing how people would light up being part of a community of like-minded people in their individual and collective pursuits.” Staying true to these tenets has seen Godso’s career blossom since she became a certified personal trainer in 2012. She’s now one of the most in-demand PTs in the world after…

JOHANNA PARV In the six years since she founded her namesake brand, Johanna Parv has become forensically attuned to how a garment should work. The Estonian-born, London-based designer did this by studying what women on the streets of her adoptive city wore going about their days and imagining how their clothes could serve them better. “A lot of it begins with observing movement; how garments twist, stretch or open when someone gets on a bike, or how they adjust their bag or coat while carrying other things,” she says. Her designs make use of ventilation, zips and panels for functionality and ease, but in a way she intends to feel “natural [and] not overly technical”. She borrows from sportswear to create clothing that allows for freedom of movement in life,…

If January is a month for resolve, then sports watches are in keeping with this sentiment. They’re especially resonant in 2026, a time when aligning how you dress with who you are matters. Or at least, who you possibly could be. A sports watch may be just the motivation required. At the very least, it imparts the look, which is part of the appeal when it comes to sports activities. This is one of the contradictions in this category of watches: it can be more about form than function. Will you really use a chronograph to time your laps? Or appreciate a sweat-wicking strap? And do you, in fact, need to be connected to your Strava app at all times? Amanda Mille, daughter of maverick watchmaker Richard Mille, who founded…

Giulio Bertelli is on a Zoom call from Rome, reflecting on Agon, his feature directorial debut. “It’s an endeavour to make a movie, and I think there are a lot of things that I’m proud came out the way I wanted,” he says. “Of course, there are things I wish I would’ve nailed better, but I’m happy. I think this combination of realism, hyper-fiction, and this idea that it still retains cinematic beauty but is kind of broken – because in parts it’s shot like a YouTube video – is good.” It works. The film is absorbing, at times shocking, and emotionally resonant. Agon tells the story of three female athletes participating in a fictitious Olympic Games, Ludoj 2024, as they prepare to compete in rifle shooting, judo and fencing.…

There is an infectious, playful energy to Aubri Ibrag. The 24-year-old actor has just finished fittings for her Vogue Australia shoot, experimenting with the soft hues and collegiate tailoring of Ralph Lauren’s new collection. “Very preppy vibes,” she says, smiling, over coffee and a shared almond croissant at a Sydney cafe. “There was this one look, beige linen shirt and high-waist pants, that I loved. It was simple but elegant. I could wear it to the airport, to brunch, anywhere. That’s my favourite kind of fashion.” Born in Dagestan, Russia, and raised in Melbourne, Ibrag’s acting journey has taken her far – literally and figuratively. She was raised in the digital age and spent her teens posting fashion and beauty videos online to a devoted following. Acting opportunities including Netflix’s…
