Dazed magazine concludes a significant chapter with BLACKPINK’s Rosé gracing the cover of its final issue under the helm of editor-in-chief Ib Kamara. Released on Thursday, this cover signifies the culmination of Kamara’s dynamic, youth-centric vision that started in 2021.
Captured by photographer Campbell Addy, Rosé radiates in a delicate polka dot Saint Laurent outfit, elegantly surrounded by drifting rose petals. This imagery encapsulates her essence—an international star grappling with the quest for solitude amid her fame.
Within the feature, Rosé shares insights about balancing her professional life with her passion: “Even when I’m not working, my brain is.” She also expresses an interest in pursuing acting: “I would love to act, as it would offer me the chance to experience anonymity.”
Kamara describes this final edition as a tribute to those influencing culture across the realms of music, cinema, and fashion—making Rosé an ideal feature. “It feels appropriate to conclude with such a meaningful issue,” he noted.
As he departs from Dazed, Kamara reflects on four transformative years dedicated to uplifting global creatives and reshaping fashion media. Although he embarks on a new journey, his influence on youth culture will endure.
