Selena Gomez’s American Vogue Cover Debut

Much like her multifaceted approach to carving out a place within the entertainment industry, from music to film to modeling, Gomez is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to her strong sartorial range. The common thread between these looks is a bold approach to prints, from retro lime green Balenciaga blooms to trompe l’oeil Dolce & Gabbana florals. In other words, take your pick.
