Entertainment
Bhavitha Mandava, an architect from India who joined NYU's program in assistive technology, is the face of British Vogue's March 2026 cover.
Discovered at a Bottega Veneta show and later joining Chanel, she's now styled in top brands like Burberry and Prada by Julia Sarr-Jamois for this shoot.
Cover story's theme is 'The future is bright'
Mandava was picked for Vogue's "The Future Is Bright" story; Matthieu Blazy said, "She has a very natural presence to me. She's confident, enthusiastic, and very involved."
Her cover isn't just about fashion; it highlights how Indian talent is shaping global style and shows non-Western faces leading luxury trends without needing any explanation.
