Elle UK

Jul 2025

Elle UK features model Emily Ratajkowski in a July/August 2023 editorial that leans into a nostalgic, intimate aesthetic. Captured by photographer Morgan Maher, the series explores a blend of indoor and outdoor settings, moving between lush garden greenery and retro-inflected interior spaces. Fashion editor Natasha Wray styles the editorial with a focus on tactile knitwear, layered patterns, and vintage textures, while the use of natural light and Polaroid-style contact sheets reinforces a soft, organic quality. Hair by Hos Hounkpatin, makeup by Emi Kaneko, and manicure by Maki Sakamoto complete the visual narrative, which utilises warm tones and playful compositions to define the editorial spread.
