You Have to See Hillary Clinton's Powerful New Teen Vogue Cover

In the next issue of Teen Vogue, you won't see a model or actress on the cover—you'll see the first female presidential candidate nominated by a major party. None other than Hillary Clinton graces the cover of the glossy, and she also guest-edited the special-edition issue

"Teen Vogue takes teen girls seriously and understands that style and substance aren’t mutually exclusive," Clinton writes in the magazine. "I love seeing articles about the search for the perfect makeup remover next to essays about running for office (I have strong opinions on both topics, but we’ll get to that later). Teen girls are a powerful force for good in the world, and it’s refreshing to see that reflected in these pages."

Clinton explains that in the issue, she'll be sharing letters received after the election, writing about her relationship with her childhood best friend, and more. "All in all, this issue is a celebration of resistance and resilience," Clinton continues. "I hope you’ll take that message to heart, because the world needs your passion and determination more than ever." Who could argue with that?

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
