Duchess of Cambridge portraits go on public display as part of Vogue Centenary
The Duchess of Cambridge’s Vogue portraits – captured by Josh Olins for the magazine’s centenary issue, June 2016 – have now been installed at the National Portrait Gallery and can be viewed by visitors from last Sunday.
For the next three weeks, those attending the Vogue 100: A Century of Style exhibition can see the images of the Duchess as part of the magazine’s anniversary exhibition. The Duchess, who has a keen interest in photography, has been patron of the National Portrait Gallery since 2012 and plans to attend the exhibition tomorrow to see the images for herself.
Other royal portraits to have featured in the fashion magazine include Diana, Princess of Wales – who graced the cover four times – and Princess Anne.
The pictures, one black-and-white headshot, and another image in colour, were hung last Sunday in the 2010s room alongside portraits of Prince Charles, Kate Moss, Cate Blanchett and Sofia Coppola.
The latest photos of the Duchess were styled by British Vogue fashion director Lucinda Chambers and a colour image of the Duchess in the brown Burberry coat and fedora will adorn the cover of the magazine’s June centenary issue.
The Duchess of Cambridge will feature on the cover of British Vogue to mark the magazine’s centenary. A further five pictures will appear alongside an article inside the edition. Seven photographs taken in the Norfolk countryside by photographer Josh Olins.
