Emilia Clarke has landed her first Vogue cover, starring in the May issue of the fashion magazine.

Clarke is famous for her role as Daenerys Targaryen in the Game of Thrones series - a new season of which premieres this weekend.

Clarke is shot by acclaimed fashion photographer Paolo Roversi and is pictured channelling her on-screen character for the cover with blonde hair and a Dior haute couture gown that wouldn't look out of place in Westeros.

The 28 year old English actress has quickly made her mark in the fashion world with her red carpet choices by the likes of Chanel, who is one of her go-to designers as well as Alexander McQueen and Dior.

This is the first magazine cover for the star who has also appeared in French Glamour, Marie Claire, WSJ, InStyle and Flare.
