Now, however, she\u2019s shared an alternate special edition version, which actually finds her joining her icons in the frame.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cthe special edition cover of Music, Fashion, Film is available now,\u201d the singer wrote on social media, sharing the alternate photo. \u201ci can\u2019t believe this image existssss xx.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe new artwork looks very similar to the original Music, Fashion, Film cover, with John Cale, Marc Jacobs and Martin Scorsese gathered in the same stark kitchen, staring neutrally into the camera. This time, though, Charli is among them, also dressed in all black and peering at the viewer with an unreadable expression.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe musician-designer-director trio on the main cover serves to represent each of the three words in the album\u2019s title. \u201cI\u2019m not proclaiming by any means that these people are the trinity,\u201d the British hitmaker said <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=g1pOJhEIrVs\">in a June interview<\/a> with Nicky Reardon. \u201cThey\u2019re mine \u2026 there are a million different versions of this album cover, for me, as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tCharli worked with Cale on \u201cHouse\u201d from this year\u2019s Wuthering Heights soundtrack album.
