US Elle April 2025 : Daisy Edgar-Jones by Dan Martensen

too dreamy, fairy for my taste.
This magazine needs to take a few steps towards becoming more commercial again.
Little is said about the Roberta Myers era - but for me it was incredible, the editorial content, the articles. You could spend the whole month consuming the magazine and not be able to read it all. Nina's Elle is a failure, it looks like a shopping mall pamphlet.
 
The cover feels more like subscriber’s cover, than one meant for the newsstand. I like the colour scheme, though.
 
Did they change the water supply in their office? Their recent covers have declined in quality this year.

No… it’s Dan Mortensen / Jenny Shitfinger. He couldn’t take a decent picture even if it were perfectly set up by the most proficient team.
The hair in this story is tragic—I can’t look away. It’s a total trainwreck.
The fashion? Laura Ingalls gone thirsty—and not in a good way.
An absolute hallucination.

Looking at my digital copy, the issue is 102 pages, and there's not much in it, other than the cover story and shoots centred around accessories.

Yes, it is a weak issue in terms of fashion editorials.
 
I don't hate. But that pic in the red underwear is so off topic from the rest of it.
 

No comment on the cover (because it doesn't matter), this has got to be the coolest take on female empowerment for a fashion magazine! Forward, aspirational... and the group is authentically diverse with Amanda Nguyen who changed a law in the States and also an A-list star. It ticks every box. Kudos to Nina Garcia, a coup for Elle in terms of fashion journalism.

Even Sanchez? And Katy Perry? Really? :rofl: :question:

^ Let’s be real, it’s Bezos-funded spon con. That’s fine, I suppose, but I don’t think it exactly qualifies as a coup for Elle or journalistic excellence.
 
I hope Katy Perry returns safely to earth, I want to go to her show 🤞🏾
