Teyana Taylor continues to command the spotlight, this time as EBONY’s Entertainer of the Year honoree and the magnetic face of its 2025 Power 100 issue.
With a presence that radiates both strength and sensuality, the multi-hyphenate creative transforms her cover moment into a powerful ode to Black womanhood, artistry, and fashion that speaks volumes.
The Power 100 cover, shot with the signature drama and richness that EBONY is known for, captures Teyana in full force: a study in confidence, couture, and cultural pride. Her styling, a fusion of avant-garde glamour and streetwise sophistication, reflects her unmatched ability to blur boundaries. In one look, she’s statuesque in structured tailoring; in another, she channels sultry grace in a sculpted, skin-baring silhouette. Every frame tells a story of a woman who wears her power unapologetically and her Blackness with regal defiance.
A fashion force in her own right
More than a muse, Teyana Taylor is a fashion architect. Her approach to style has always been fearless, an expression of her Harlem roots, creative discipline, and performer’s spirit. Whether draped in custom couture or elevated streetwear, she redefines what it means to embody luxury as a Black woman. Her EBONY spread celebrates that duality, merging modern edge with timeless elegance, and reminding the world that high fashion has always had a home in Black creativity.
Fashion as a form of resistance
Beyond the breathtaking visuals, the shoot symbolizes more than glamour it’s a statement of ownership. Teyana’s power lies not just in her style but in her ability to shape it on her own terms. Her collaboration with Black stylists, designers, and glam teams underscores a deeper mission: to center Black talent in fashion narratives that have long overlooked them.
Owning her power
As EBONY’s Entertainer of the Year, Teyana stands as both muse and movement. Her artistry, whether through music, film, choreography, or fashion, is grounded in authenticity and cultural pride. The cover isn’t merely a celebration of her accomplishments but an affirmation of Black women’s boundless influence.
In every image, Teyana Taylor embodies a truth that transcends trends: that power, beauty, and Blackness are inseparable, and when fused, they create art that can’t be ignored.
