Supermodel Catherine McNeil takes the cover story of Vogue Australia Magazine‘s November 2022 edition lensed by fashion photographer Jake Terrey. In charge of styling was Petta Chua, with production from Danica Osland and Jade Carp. Beauty is work of hair stylist Sophie Roberts, and makeup artist Colette Miller. For the session McNeil is wearing selected pieces from top brands such as Schiaparelli, Paspaley, Prada, Tiffany, Maison Close, Balenciaga, Hermes, Magda Butrym, Wing and Weft, Le Silla, Fendi, Stephan Jones, Meshki, Christopher Kane, Cartier, Louis Vuitton, Alexander McQueen, Gucci, and Rochas.
I feel like a completely different person to who I was three years ago. I’ve grown up a lot and having my sobriety – that’s changed things in leaps and bounds. I’m always pushing myself and I think that’s what’s kept my career going for 20 years, and hopefully it will still be going in 30, 40 years. I love myself again. And that’s a big, important thing.
Back then, it was much easier to keep to yourself and be private, but now you don’t have that luxury because you have to keep up a following with your fans. And I’m still learning to do that. When I post something that has nothing to do with fashion, like me driving a tractor, I lose a bunch of followers. At the end of the day, I don’t really care. – Catherine McNeil
