Beyoncé's Upcoming Vogue Cover Will Be One For the History Books

Beyoncé is set to feature on the cover of the illustrious September issue of Vogue, and it sounds like it's going to be a seriously stylish issue. According to reports circulating, Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour gave Beyoncé full creative control of the shoot. One of her first decisions was to recruit 23-year-old photographer Tyler Mitchell to shoot the cover. The rising star, who hails from Atlanta, GA, has previously worked with the likes of Marc Jacobs, Ray-Ban, and Givenchy.

In a landmark move, Tyler will be the first black photographer in history to shoot a cover for US Vogue. A source told Huffington Post, "The reason a 23-year-old black photographer is photographing Beyoncé for the cover of Vogue is because Beyoncé used her power and influence to get him that assignment."

This level of creative control is not usually given to cover stars, but clearly exceptions are made for Queen Bey. This is stacking up to be one of Vogue's most important issues ever, and it also reportedly and questionably the last of Anna Wintour's as editor-in-chief.
