Description

This editorial magazine cover features British actress and singer Cynthia Erivo captured in a striking portrait. Erivo is bald with dark makeup and a septum ring, wearing a dramatic, voluminous white ruffled collar around her neck against a dark background. Bold green typography for the W magazine masthead appears in the upper left corner, with additional white text listing featured performers along the right side and Erivo's name at the bottom. The lighting creates subtle highlights on her face while keeping the background in deep shadow, emphasizing the sculptural texture of the white collar.
