As well as gracing the cover and pages of Vogue Greece for their editorial, shot by Robert Papier, the models also discuss the importance of activism.
Mother-of-one Irina is a volunteer at the River Fund, which helps feed those in need, and Black Lives Matter supporter Joan Smalls is a co-founder of Donate My Wage, which raises money from people helping to fund the cause.
Meanwhile, Candice has lent her support to Mothers2Mothers, which seeks to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV in sub-Saharan Africa.
‘Vogue Greece traces the year that changed the world through the efforts of three celebrated supermodels who discuss the value of activism, while urging us to look beyond beauty in a photo shoot exuding sensitivity,’ said Vogue Greece editor-in-chief Thaleia Karafyllidou.

A statement from Vogue Greece continues: ‘An array of emotions and human experiences, at the closing moment of what has proved both a challenging, but equally inspiring year.
‘Through 2020’s globally connecting experience, moments of despair have translated to moments of action and contribution, but also personal introspection and reflection.
‘Each of our cover talents break through their outer shell of undeniable beauty, diving into a vulnerable, connected and human state of being.
‘We are left touched, related and unified, by this exploration of our Human Nature. Individual covers speak to vulnerability, whilst our group covers signify a time for unity, and also reflection.’
The December issue of Vogue Greece goes on sale from Sunday.
