Young heirs to fortunes from around the world posed for Bruce Weber for the June issue of Vanity Fair, which is available on newsstands today. The above pictures are exclusive outtakes from his photoshoot.
Americans Hayley Bloomingdale, Amanda Hearst, and Ivanka Trump were joined in the series by Olympia and Fiona Scarry, granddaughters of children’s author Richard Scarry; Elisabeth von Thurn und Taxis, daughter of Johannes, Prince of Thurn und Taxis and great-granddaughter of King Miguel of Portugal; Bianca Brandolini, great-granddaughter of Fiat industrialist Edoardo Agnelli; Sophia Hesketh, daughter of the third Lord Hesketh; Tatiana Santo Domingo, granddaughter of Colombian magnate Julio Mario Santo Domingo; Sofia Barclay, granddaughter of British businessman Sir David Barclay; Margherita Missoni, granddaughter of Missoni founders Rosita and Ottavio Missoni; and Lady Eloise Anson, daughter of the fifth earl of Lichfield and granddaughter of the fifth duke of Westminster. Select Europeans are wearing pieces from the jewelry collection of Greek shipping heiress Eugenie Niarchos.
In an accompanying piece in the magazine by Bob Colacello, titled “Fortune’s Children,” the silver spoon set speak of their unique provenances and career aspirations. Bianca’s goal in life is “to go to Hollywood and win an Oscar” and Ivanka hopes to simply continue building upon the legacy of her father and have “[her] kids do the same.” Elisabeth comments that it is “a huge privilege to be able to use the access [she has] in an interesting way” as an arts writer while model-designer Lady Eloise defers her aristocratic title and familial wealth, stating that they are but only ” a name and a situation.”

I love these pictures!
Everyone looks beautiful in their own way.
Though I must say… Elisabeth is gorgeous, heiress or not!
VF shines they do specials like this. Bruce Weber definitely takes the best photographs. These ones look especially lovely. All of the girls look just beautiful, and this is without elaborate styling. Bravo!
really, everyone looks their best. particularly adore lady eloise anson’s quote… and that simplicity comes from one of the best connected families in england! (her godmother is the princess royal and the family in general is v. close with the royals.) she is overall such a sweet and grounded girl. hayley’s portrait looks timeless, j’adore.
elisabeth, hayley, and ivanka look amazing. i love these pics <3
Is Hayley eating yellow watermelon?
Must admit that the American girls look particularly good. Amanda is so cute and Ivanka has an inherent appeal to her. This is the best I’ve seen the London/international set look though. Bianca, Margherita, Tatiana, and Elisabeth all look wonderful. Fancy seeing Sofia and Eloise here, as they are quite reserved when it comes to these kinds of things. The first and last pictures are most fabulous.
Fantastic!
everyone looks great! the colors in the pic of the scarrys is beautiful, as well as the one in biancas and sophias. pls pls write more of this set! amandas shot is so charming. really lovely all around.
Tatiana and Sofia are so exotic. I love their looks.
Margherita is adorable with the teacup.
The picture of Lady Eloise running is just amazing.
Yes, Hayley is eating yellow watermelon and I want it! And her eyes! Amanda looks cute in a frumpy way too and… If I could have Ivanka’s hair I would be the happiest girl alive. Also love that first photo- gorgeous.
