#CandyCoverSearch2023 Winner Simoné For Candy September 2023

Long before she sent in her application, went through the entire process of the cover search, and stepped foot in her final photoshoot, Simoné already had a longstanding relationship with Candy. “To me, Candy represents far more than just a magazine; it serves as a platform for today’s youth, fostering inclusivity, nurturing creativity, and promoting personal growth,” she explains.

“My connection with Candy has evolved over the years, from its transition from its print era to its current digital format. Since I was a child, I’ve always been an avid reader of Candy… I got inspiration from it as I explored diverse fashion and makeup trends, all while discovering myself,” she reminisces with a smile.
