Vogue US has just released the front cover for its special edition Met Gala issue, and there's one glaring absence from the list of celebrities who made the cut.

Singer Rihanna was crowned Anna Wintour's style winner on the night, and graces the cover in her stunning canary yellow floor-sweeping gown, a creation by Chinese designer Guo Pei.

Riri shared the exciting news with her 18.6m Instagram followers today, posting an image of the vibrant cover and writing, "WOW!!! I am very honored to have this image selected for the new cover of @voguemagazine !! #metgala2015 #art #fashion #Vogue"

The competition was stiff at this year's Gala, with Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Kendall Jenner and more all looking downright fabulous, and receiving their rightful recognition in the list of celebrity names featured on the special Vogue cover. 

However despite Kim Kardashian's stunning Roberto Cavalli ensemble, her name didn't make the cover – something which many are taking as a direct snub from Anna Wintour to Kim and Kanye.

The star couple's names were featured on last year's Met Gala cover, and they even graced the front of Vogue themselves back in April 2014.

Since then though, Kim and Kanye's appeal seems to have worn off for Anna, and it seems once you're out of the editor's good books you won't get back in.

After all, who can forget her face earlier this year when little North West had a temper tantrum in the middle of Kanye's Adidas show at New York Fashion Week?

We can't decide who looks more upset, Anna or North…

Kim didn't exactly make things easy for herself on the night of the Met Gala by outright ignoring Anna's "selfie ban" and posting a number of pictures from inside the event, which many say may have led to the decision to cut her name from the cover.

 

I just love this girl @ladygaga

As for Rihanna, she definitely seems to be the star of the moment at Condé Nast, as this is her second year running as cover star for the Vogue Met Gala issue:

It's definitely well deserved for RiRi, but we doubt Kim's too happy all the same.

Kim Kardashian was the victim of some serious side-eye last night!

The reality star was sitting front row for her husband Kanye West's Adidas show at New York Fashion Week, but maybe she should have left little North at home!

Poor Nori threw a tantrum during the show, clearly not happy to have to sit still in a room full of people. Unluckily for Kim, her seatmates just so happened to be Vogue editor Anna Wintour and singer Beyoncé, both of whom looked distinctly unimpressed.

Anna can throw some serious shade at the best of times, but we think this photo says it all:

Or this one, maybe:

Or even THIS one, taken as Kim finally decided to bring North backstage to calm her down:

While Beyoncé and Anna may have stayed stony-faced, Elle's fashion news director Anne Slowey was reportedly heard saying, "Couldn't they leave it backstage?" in reference to poor North. Ouch. 

Kanye's fashion show was definitely a family affair, with Kim's little sister Kylie Jenner among the models who featured, as Kendall, Khloé and mum Kris Jenner watched from the audience.

Kim herself wore one of Kanye's creations to the show… we like the jacket but there is a LOT of crotch going on in this photo!

 

My look for the Yeezy show!!!!!! Yeezy head to toe!!!!!

While we can't imagine Kim was too happy with Nori's front row outburst upstaging her big night, we are DELIGHTED to finally see the little girl showing some personality – she usually looks far too chilled out for a toddler!

It's time to face the truth. We'll never be as stylish as Anna Wintour. 

When it comes to wrapping Christmas gifts, we're pretty chuffed if we manage to get through it all without any paper cuts or Sellotape disasters. But now it turns out what we REALLY should have been worrying about is what designer label our paper came from.

Anna Wintour's designer of choice for this years gift wrap is Marni, apparently. And she's using a whole lot of it, if these pictures are anything to go by!

Team AW – Anna's assistants Rey-Hanna, Lily Stav Gildor and Lily Goksenin – took on the role of elves recently, wrapping piles of gifts in the swanky paper.

 

Christmas never looked so chic with Marni's spring prints! #marnipaper #onlyatvogue @voguemagazine #elftime

Anna Wintour truly is the devil that wears all of the Prada – which is why we love her so much!

The editor of Vogue was all over news headlines earlier this year when she made the controversial decision to put Kim Kardashian West and her husband Kanye on the cover of the fashion magazine. 

At the time, many people – including celebrities– were outraged at the cover and many even cancelled their subscription. 

Now, Anna has spoken out about her decision, but rather than praise Kim and Kanye, she actually gives what can only be described as the biggest backhanded compliment that has ever been given.

Anna was featuring in a conversation series with journalist Alina Cho at the Metropolitan Museum of New York when she spoke about giving Madonna a cover back in 1989: “The first celebrity that I put on the cover of Vogue was Madonna, and that was considered completely controversial at that time, too.”

She then went on to say that it was not always a good idea to put “tasteful” people on the cover: “I think if we just remain deeply tasteful and just put tasteful people on the cover, it would be a rather boring magazine! Nobody would talk about us. It’s very important that people do talk about us.”

Wow – in one sentence, she managed to say that Kim, Kanye and even Madonna are not tasteful enough to be on Vogue, but that’s why they are there.

We’re sure Kanye is just going to LOVE this!

Oh, Anna – never change!

Anna Wintour has long been recognised as one of the scariest faces in fashion. Rarely pictured without her sunglasses and a stern frown, if we saw her in real life we'd probably hide behind our copy of Vogue. But in this new video, the notoriously difficult editor seems quite down-to-earth and, dare we say it, sweet! She even takes off the sunnies…for a while!

In the video, Anna answers 73 questions about herself – from what she has for breakfast (Starbucks), to her biggest phobia (spiders), to her least favourite fashion buzzword (we won't spoil that one).

Oscar de la Renta even makes a cameo appearance via speakerphone – sure, that's just a normal day at the office for Anna.

The vid is also a great chance to get a sneak peek at the US Vogue offices – we're in heaven!

Wow. She’s the last person we’d expect to partake in something as undignified as having a bucket of ice water thrown over her head… but Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour has shocked us all.

In a gorgeous floral dress and sunnies that we assume are far too expensive to get drenched, Anna is the image of perfection… until seven buckets of water are poured on her head by various family members.

The style icon, who was originally nominated by her daughter Bee Shaffer, challenged her best buds Roger Federer and Dominic West to continue the chain. Kudos, Anna!

Vogue editor, Anna Wintour hosted the wedding of her son Charlie Shaffer to Elizabeth Cordry, at her Long Island home last weekend.

Guests posted snaps of the ceremony on Instagram, and it was no surprise that the whole affair looked absolutely stunning.

The bride’s wedding dress was uh-maz-ing, and as the new Mrs. Shaffer is a fashion executive, this is no surprise. It was designed by de la Renta, while the groom wore Burberry for the special day. Bridesmaids wore Prada, flower girls wore Alexander McQueen, and Anna Wintour wore Chanel.

We dare not even think of how much everything cost!

Anna Wintour has topped the fashion names on Forbes magazine’s ‘100 Most Powerful Women’ list.

The American Vogue editor-in-chief and artistic director of Condé Nast has been placed at number 39 on this year’s list – a whole two places higher than in 2013.

This is in part down to her fundraising work for the Anna Wintour Costume Centre and President Obama’s re-election campaign.

Anna, 64, beat designers Diane Von Furstenberg, who ranked in 68th place, Miuccia Prada in 75th and Tory Burch in 79th as well as supermodel Gisele Bundchen, who has an estimated wealth of $42million.

Also on the list in 43rd place is Spanx creator Sara Blakely who made history after turning her $5,000 life savings into the billion dollar brand, becoming the world’s first self-made female billionaire.

Sara has also joined the Giving Pledge, vowing to donate at least half of her earnings to charity.

Beyonce, Shakira, Oprah Winfrey, Angelina Jolie and Sofia Vergara also made it onto the list, which was topped by the German Chancellor, Angela Merkel.

Just months after Kim Kardashian appeared on the cover of Vogue with fiancé Kayne West, her little sister is set to make her début in the fashion bible.

18-year-old Kendall Jenner was recently shot by photographer Patrick Demarchelier for Vogue.

33-year-old Kim fought long and hard to make an appearance in the iconic magazine, but apparently Kendall didn’t even have to ask, and was approached by Vogue’s editor-in-chief Anna Wintour herself to star in the July issue!

Sibling rivalry at its most fabulous!

Kendall began her modelling career when she was just 14.

Her first modelling job was a campaign for Forever 21, and she recently walked in Marc Jacobs’ show at New York Fashion Week.

The young Keeping Up With the Kardashian star was spotted sitting next to Anna Wintour at a Topshop fashion show in London last February.

Very cosy!

Editor of Vogue magazine, Anna Wintour, isn’t one to mince her words – and when it comes to the Met Gala, there’s no exception.

Anna, who has been in charge of hosting the event in New York City since 1995, has given her choice of the best dressed man at this year’s event.

According to the editor, Benedict Cumberbatch was the only man at the event who “nailed” the dress code perfectly.

The dress code for the Met Gala this year was white tie, and it was obvious to Anna that many of the men attending the gala simply did not understand the meaning of the dress code.

Those who clearly misunderstood the dress code included; Tom Brady, Jake Gyllenhaal and even fashion conscious, Kanye West did not get Anna’s seal of approval.

Anna called Jake’s look, “Brooklyn white tie,” whilst she said that Tom Brady, “obviously didn’t look at the invitation.”

Bradley Cooper reportedly got 99.55% of his outfit correct but lost out because, according to Anna: “his studs should have been onyx and not mother of pearl.”

Ouch! We wonder what she’d make of the lads outfits down in Copper’s on a Saturday night?

Anna Wintour is the most feared woman in the fashion world, she was even said to be the inspiration behind Miranda in The Devil Wears Prada.

Can you imagine being her daughter? Well, Bee Shaffer can and she is far from what you would expect!

Bee says that she always knew she wanted to be in journalism, just like her mum, but it seems that’s where the similarities end!

While Bee seems to know a lot about fashion, she says she isn’t into it that much.

Bee also opens up about growing up with her mum, calling her, generous and a “boss”.

Aww, we love that!
