The pair are photographed by Annie Leibovitz for the cover story, which accompanies the release of the forthcoming film sequel, The Devil Wears Prada 2.

Streep, who originated the role of Miranda Priestly in the 2006 original, reveals in the accompanying interview that she was initially hesitant to reprise the character. However, she was convinced by Anna Wintour herself, who called her when she heard about the project.

Anna Wintour, known for her impeccable style and exacting standards, quipped in the interview that she would never want Streep's job, while Streep countered that there's no way Wintour would want to be her.

The conversation touched on the longevity of fashion designers, dressing for work, and how clothes reflect one's personality - themes that resonate with the upcoming Costume Institute exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum, which Vogue is covering extensively in the issue.

Elsewhere, the magazine features Ethan James Green's photographs of fashion and fine art inside The Met's new Condé Nast Galleries, portraits of the Met Gala host committee by Annie Leibovitz, and contributions from five visual artists exploring body types in the exhibition.

Vogue has also staged a pajama party at The Mark Hotel to celebrate the tradition of attendees wearing evening gowns to the Met Ball after a late night.

In related news, Vogue has announced that The Devil Wears Prada will be its next Book Club pick. Designers Andy Kang and Annie Leibovitz photographed septuagenarians Anna Wintour, Meryl Streep, and Miuccia Prada for the cover, which was treated with utmost secrecy due to Wintour's involvement.
