Pia Wurtzbach graces 9 XPEDITION magazine covers: See them all here

Published Jan 3, 2021 08:21 pm

The historic nine XPEDITION magazine covers featuring Pia Wurtzbach are out!

Wurtzbach, said to be the most followed Miss Universe, appears in the 6th Year Special Edition of the luxury travel magazine based in Dubai. It is also the magazine's biggest unveil cover.

So which of the nine covers do you like? Take a look at all these stunning covers with Pia's descriptions of the shoot:

"Cover 1/9...Happy new year! Starting the year with @xpeditionmagazine So excited about this! ❤️ "

"Cover 2/9 for @xpeditionmagazine. I've never done a cover shoot this big! Took us 3 days to finish all the layouts and we shot them all around Dubai.. Love all the looks that we did too! They’re so different. This is a fashion layout I’ve never tried before. It’s not something people are used to seeing me in but that’s why I love it! I love being a chameleon with fashion. What do you think? ❤️ "

"Cover 3/9 of @xpeditionmagazine.. and my favorite one so far.. All of these covers will come out in print."

"Cover 4/9 of @xpeditionmagazine. After literally climbing the top of a mountain and braving the heat, we shoot inside the -6 degrees Ice Lounge for 4 hours straight."

"Cover 5/9 for @xpeditionmagazine ? I was freezing!! Hahaha"

"Cover 6/9 of @xpeditionmagazine. I love it when I get to express myself in photographs. In this case I get to express my love for fashion and creativity. Whenever I do a shoot with a team I always allow them (the stylists, make up artists, hair stylists) to do their magic on me. To bring out their creativity on me. Whenever I step in during a shoot, I see myself not as a beauty queen but as a blank canvas. ❤ I have an appreciation for their creativity. That's why I also like to switch it up and try something new."

"Cover 7/9 @furneamato shines even in the dark ? Pia blue is the theme for these next ones ?? Perhaps nobody can really fathom why she has a riveting magic when she wears blue but the only thing we can decipher is @piawurtzbach being a true shining paragon of a color that epitomizes tranquility, stability, inspiration and wisdom as she sail away the Old Dubai in the biggest, most grandiose blue couture gowns reminiscent of the color that she wore when she ended a nation's 42 year drought and brought home the elusive Miss Universe crown."

"Cover 8/9 for @xpeditionmagazine. Wearing @albertandrada. It's been awhile since I wore his design again.. and in blue too ?? "

"And finally...cover 9/9 wearing @ezracouture ? All of these will be available in print! Order them from @xpeditionmagazine. Had so much fun doing this 3 day shoot with the team! Hope you liked the pictures too ?"
