Elle U.S. Elle U.S. September 2026 Cover 2026

Description

Rihanna poses seated in a minimalist studio setting for the Elle U.S. September 2026 Cover story, photographed by Inez and Vinoodh. She wears an ensemble featuring a draped black satin bodice, a multi-layered white lace tiered skirt, voluminous textured dark trousers, and towering platform heels. Styled by Jahleel Weaver with hair by Jawara and makeup by Hector Espinal, the monochrome composition captures her with one hand resting against her head beside a small vase of flowers. Soft studio lighting sculpts the silhouettes and fabric textures across a polished concrete floor and plain wall.
