Vogue has apologised for writing that Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid were “embracing gender fluidity” by sharing clothes.

The magazine admitted it “missed the mark” as it faced a backlash online over its cover story about the former One Direction singer and his American model girlfriend. The couple spoke about borrowing each other’s T-shirts in an interview, in which Vogue described them as “part of a new generation embracing gender fluidity“.

Many on social media pointed out the term typically refers to people who do not identify as male or female.

In a statement issued on Friday, a Vogue spokeswoman said:

“The story was intended to highlight the impact the gender-fluid, non-binary communities have had on fashion and culture.
We are very sorry the story did not correctly reflect that spirit – we missed the mark.
We do look forward to continuing the conversation with greater sensitivity.”
