Vogue Brazil Makes Breastfeeding Fashionable on Their September Cover

Breastfeeding is still a touchy subject, but at least it’s on its way to being desensitized, and the proof is in Vogue Brazil’s September issue. The cover features model Carol Trentini breastfeeding her son with nothing but a trench coat on. Has motherhood ever looked so glamorous?

Zee Nunes shot the cover during Trentini’s pregnancy and after. Photos from the shoots depict the model while she was seven months pregnant and two months after she welcomed her son. The mother of two, wearing a brocade coat covered in brooches, also posed with her older son in the spread. The magazine’s website published a video of the shoot that will bring you to tears at the sheer beauty of this women, her family, and the message the photos send.

Trentini shared the cover on Instagram with the caption “Breast-feeding my baby boy for @voguebrasil THANK YOU.” No, Carol. Thank you, for reminding us that what is too often seen as controversial is actually just beautiful.

This isn’t the first time a magazine has tackled the drama surrounding public breastfeeding. In Glamour’s September 2014 issue, Olivia Wilde was pictured nursing her son. “Breast-feeding is the most natural thing. I don’t know, now it feels like Otis should always be on my breast. It felt like we were capturing that multifaceted woman we’ve been discussing — that we know we can be. You can be someone who is at once maternal and professional and sexy and self-possessed. I mean, I certainly don’t really look like that when I’m [typically] breast-feeding. And there’s usually a diaper involved,” she said in the magazine.

The June 2015 issue of Elle Australia featured Nicole Trunfio in a black Prada dress while holding her son. However, subscribers to the magazine opened up their mail to find an extra special surprise: a different cover, featuring Trunfio breastfeeding her baby. “This wasn’t a contrived situation: Zion needed a feed, Nicole gave it to him, and when we saw how beautiful they looked we simply moved her onto the set,” Elle’s editor in chief Justine Cullen said of the cover. “It was a completely natural moment that resulted in a powerful picture.”

And let’s not forget the cover of Time featuring a mother with a controversially aged boy nursing. That one might not have given breastfeeding the best rap, but it made an impact. Other than that, we are so thrilled with the positive attention this natural part of reproduction has received from magazines.
