**New Orleans, LA –** Playboy magazine is making a comeback to print, marking its first physical issue in five years. The spring issue, hitting newsstands on February 10th, will feature model Lori Harvey as its cover star. The announcement was made jointly by Harvey and Playboy on Instagram, showcasing behind-the-scenes footage from the photoshoot.
The issue, which will be launched at a Super Bowl weekend event in New Orleans, also includes comedian Nikki Glaser and the yet-to-be-revealed Playmate of the Year. Playboy CEO Ben Kohn stated that the return to print reflects the company’s commitment to adapting to the evolving media landscape while staying true to its heritage of high-quality journalism and provocative content.
Harvey, who has modeled for major brands like Michael Kors and Burberry, and recently appeared in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, has been outspoken about the importance of size inclusivity in the modeling industry. This sentiment aligns with her own brands, the swimwear line Yevrah and skincare brand SKN by LH, both prioritizing inclusivity. The choice of Harvey as the cover model signals Playboy’s potential shift towards a more diverse and inclusive representation. Pre-orders for the magazine are available now.
