Beyoncé returned to the cover of iD Magazine for the first time in 20 years.
The queen, who graces the cover of the magazine’s special Cécred issue dated October 2026, wears nothing but a fur scarf, stilettos and lots of diamonds.
Photographed by Blair Caldwell and styled by Shiona Turini, the cover was shot to celebrate the expansion of hair care range Cécred into the UK.
On the cover, Beyoncé’s hair is parted to the side and hangs down her face in damp curls. She and stylist Neal Farinah used their own products for the style, of course.
She wears sheer black tights, with a cream-toned fur ring around her torso. In a nod to the brand, she uses her high stiletto heels to step on the hat of one of Cécred products.
And she folds the diamonds through a thick necklace; The style is part of Tiffany’s Blue Book 2024 collection, with Jean Schlumberger’s Apollo brooch-inspired piece.
The stunning piece features 10 Fancy Intense Yellow diamonds weighing more than 19 carats, set atop round brilliant white diamonds totaling more than 89 carats.
She added a matching bracelet and multiple rings stacked on top of each other, as well as a necklace with a nameplate that read “Cécred.”
One of the rings on her finger is part of the same high jewelery collection inspired by Schlumberger’s vintage drawings; It boasts a rare pear-shaped fancy brown-pink diamond weighing more than 10 carats, surrounded by an additional halo of round brilliant white diamonds.
The magazine has only published one photo so far and promises further spread when the print edition hits newsstands; The eight-page series will be available for purchase online and will ship on November 10.
The full interview wasn’t posted online, but Bey quoted it as saying: “I had a vision of doing something that solved real problems and performed so incredibly that people who couldn’t stand my music still use Cécred, duh!… because it works.”
The singer’s final cover in the magazine came 20 years after her last cover, published in August 2006, featured the superstar wearing an embellished dress from Prada.
