Elle Australia By the Beach 2025

About

This editorial image for Elle Australia, titled By the Beach and styled by fashion editor Naomi Smith, features model Laura Helene Christensen performing a backbend on the deck of a weathered blue wooden boat. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight casting soft shadows across the painted wooden surface. The composition captures the model in a dynamic athletic pose wearing a dark printed bikini set and black flip-flops. The water is visible in the background, creating a coastal atmosphere. The color palette emphasizes natural skin tones alongside the muted blue of the boat hull and dark tones of the swimwear.
