American songstress Willow Smith is a bold and glamorous sight as she covers V Magazine’s June 2021 Digital edition. The 20 year old is photographed by Domen & Van de Velde, and is a bold and daring sight as she wears a Valentino dress for the cover, paired with a Rockstud Alcove bag and an array of Cartier watches. Stylist Nicola Formichetti has dressed the star in fashion-forward looks which take inspiration from Willow's rock and roll aesthetic. The photospread exclusively feature Valentino’s Roman Palazzo Collection and jewels from Cartier. The daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith has been glamed up by makeup artist Raoul Alejandre, who gives her gothic and bold eyeshadow looks, and her hair has been styled by Vernon Francois.

In her interview, Willow talks about making rock music as a black woman, being inspired by mother Jada, her musical upbringing, and more. Alexis White from Straight Line Stitch interviews the young talent for the publication. White is an idol for Willow and a pioneer for black women in the punk-rock scene.

"I think that seeing my mom on stage and how she commanded the music and the band just made me see ‘That’s what I want to be. I want to be that strong woman who is putting it all out there on the stage." - Willow Smith
