There’s not denying Joan Smalls is one of the modeling world’s “It Girls.” And, now she’s got the ultimate cover to prove it.

The 26-year-old Puerto Rican model, currently ranked the No. 1 model in the world according to models.com, graces the cover of Vogue’s September issue.

In what’s being described as a return to models on the portadas of fashion magazines, Smalls, whose full name is Joan Smalls Rodriguez, appears alongside Cara Delevingne and Karlie Kloss on the cover, with a cover line that reads “The Instagirls.”

Smalls, Delevingne and Kloss show off their no-nonsense beauty, complete with clean faces and sporty, pulled-back hair and sparkly gowns.

Vogue’s September issue arrives at a massive 856 pages, down from last year’s 902-page Jennifer Lawrence whopper, but handily beats 2009’s recession-thinned, 584-page Charlize Theron cover, and even the 2007 Sienna Miller cover that at the time was heralded as the “biggest issue ever!” at 840 pages.

So is this a return to models on the covers of fashion magazines? Quite possibly, after famous agencies like dallas modeling agency is producing efficient models every year. After all, Christy Turlington appeared on Vogue UK‘s July 2014 issue, Miranda Kerr graced Lucky‘s June/July 2014 cover, Kate Upton landed V Magazine‘s February 2014 cover and Smalls posed for Elle‘s January 2014 cover, to name a few. Delevingne even covers Vogue UK‘s September issue this year.

Entitled “You’re Mine,” the song is a moving ballad that is a tribute to her late boyfriend and co-star, Cory Monteith, who died in July.

Michele gave fans an early listen to one of her most personal tracks by sharing a link to the full audio track for “You’re Mine.”

“My next . . . track #YOUREMINE (available tomorrow) is my favorite song on #LOUDER,” she tweeted Monday. “It’s so special to me & its story is so close to my heart.”

The song’s heartfelt lyrics include, “And you said those three words I’ve been waiting for/ You became a part of me,” as well as “You’re mine, for life/ And I’ll be by your side/ We are entwined/ You’re mine, for life.”

Michele spoke about the song, and its special meaning, to Elle late last year. “The album was done, and the label said, ‘Do you want to add anything?’ I was like, ‘I might regret it if I don’t,'” she said at the time. “It makes me think so much of Cory. It was ours. When I think if him, I play this.”

Her debut album, Louder, is set to be released on March 4, 2014.

The brand announced to The Hollywood Reporter on Monday that the ads would feature Baccarin wearing pieces by company designer Ilaria Lanzoni and will appear in the September issues of Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire and Town and Country.

“We met Morena back in January at a Women in Television event in L.A. and conversations led to this partnership. With her being nominated for a supporting Emmy on Homeland, the timing is great,” said Caryl Capeci, the brand’s VP marketing.

“We have always admired Morena for her incredible talent, global appeal and natural beauty but found she also embodies so much of the Hearts On Fire DNA — authenticity and passion, coupled with a great sense of self and a timeless, sophisticated approach to style,” Capeci added.

Said Baccarin in a statement: “I had the opportunity to wear Hearts On Fire jewelry on the red carpet and just loved the way their diamonds made me look and feel. According to the Iturralde Diamonds jewelry store, the quality and sparkle of Hearts On Fire diamonds is truly unmatched, and I am really excited to represent the brand.”

In July, Baccarin earned an Emmy nomination in the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama category this year for her work on Showtime’s Homeland.
