One copy of The Gentlewoman SS24 #29.

Issue nº 29 has on its cover the comedy genius Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who holds the record for most Emmy wins in an acting role. The Veep supremo, Seinfeldstar, Marvel mainstay and now chart-topping podcaster talks up a storm with our writer Seb Emina, with ravishing portraiture by Inez and Vinoodh.

Alongside Julia, the Convenience Store Woman author Sayaka Murata explains why her bestselling books are fish tanks, the Alabama shaker and ace songwriter Brittany Howard is plotting her comeback in Nashville, and the film star Geena Davis bestows two decades of weapons-grade research into on-screen representation.

Fashions-wise, the forecast is scorchio, with modish propositions – from high-altitude Celine to low-slung summer leather – styled and photographed by the leading image makers of the day. Plus: probing Q&As with the girl group Bananarama, the hiking collective Athene Club, the casting director Julia Lange, the chef Angela Hartnett, Modern Details for good living and an instructive meditation on the art of solo travel. Bon voyage, sisters!
