Lori Harvey has been tapped to grace the cover of Playboy’s first print issue since 2020.
According to the Daily News, the model and social media influencer will be the subject of an exclusive interview and photo shoot for “the iconic men’s magazine.” The issue is scheduled to hit newsstands on Feb. 10.
Taking to Instagram, both Harvey and Playboy shared the news of the collaboration.
“PLAYBOY returns to print with Lori Harvey on the cover. Preorder today. On stands 02.10.25, “the post read.
For its highly-anticipated return, Harvey candidly spoke to Playboy about her thriving career as an entrepreneur and being “a modern icon.” Along with Harvey, acclaimed comedian Nikki Glaser and the new Playmate of the Year will also be featured in the comeback issue.
Mike Guy, editor for Playboy, expressed his excitment that the magazine would be available in print.
For nearly seven decades, Playboy wasn’t just a magazine — it was a movement,” Guy said. “This issue celebrates our rich history while embracing a bold new vision for the future, blending nostalgia with innovation to inspire a new generation of readers.”
In March 2020, Playboy announced the closure of its print edition as circulation numbers continued to dwindle. CEO Ben Kohn noted “the disruption of the coronavirus pandemic to content production and the supply chain” at the time.
Playboy announced back in August that it will be publishing print magazines annually. The brand will still “feature everything that made the publication iconic: unforgettable photography, renowned features such as the Playboy Interview and Playboy Advisor, celebrity pictorials, and the Playmate Centerfold…”
The announcement of Harvey being on the cover of Playboy comes after she was featured on the Sports Illustrated cover in February of 2024. For the photoshoot, she wore a swimsuit from her own Yevrah Swimwear Collection.
