Vice President Kamala Harris appears on Vogue’s latest cover in a gushing profile describing her as the “candidate for our times.”
The magazine posted the October digital cover spotlighting the Democratic presidential nominee first thing Friday, with a moody photo of her smiling at her Washington, DC home while wearing a Gabriela Hearst suit and her now-notorious Tiffany earrings.

The fawning cover, which mostly highlights Harris’ rise in politics and is largely absent of any bombshells, is likely to be the last the magazine publishes prior to next month’s election.
“Only rarely are individuals summoned for acts of national rescue, but in July, Vice President Kamala Harris received one of those calls,” the fashion mag wrote as it promoted the profile piece.
“With President Joe Biden’s decision to end his reelection campaign, the world looked to Harris with hopes and doubts.”
The magazine’s cover photo, which was shot on Oct. 7 by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz, features the 59-year-old candidate donning one of her own Gabriela Hearst suits — and what appears to be the now-infamous Tiffany earrings she wore as she debated former President Donald Trump.

The debate night jewelry sparked a slew of conspiracy theories that Harris had been fitted with clip-on audio headphones disguised as pearl earrings.
Speaking after her campaign rally in Ripon, WI last week, Harris rehashed policy issues, recalled the day she received word from President Biden that he was dropping out of the election – and who she plans to call first if she wins the White House.
“One of my first calls—outside of family—will be to the team that is working with me on our plan to lower costs for the American people,” Harris told Vogue writer Nathan Heller in the lengthy, wide-ranging article.
Asked about the day Biden called her to break the news he was stepping aside, the veep said she’d been making pancakes with her nieces and had just sat down to do a puzzle when the commander-in-chief flashed up on her phone.

“It’s Joe Biden,” Harris recalled saying, adding the news was “a dramatic turn to the day.”
Harris said she immediately tried to reach her husband, Doug Emhoff, who was stuck in Los Angeles after a global computer glitch grounded thousands of flights – but couldn’t reach him.
“I’m like, ‘Where is he? Somebody find him! Why isn’t he answering’?” she said. “And I could not reach him for the world”— adding “because he was in a SoulCycle class.”
