Lounging in black on a floating throne—Elsa Pataky’s fashion photoshoot for Elle España October 2025 channels high fashion with a whisper of cinematic rebellion.

There’s something deliciously defiant about reclining in full black couture while the world glistens in sunlit blue. Elsa Pataky, captured mid-lounge on a glossy inflatable pool float, doesn’t just wear the look—she owns the moment. The Elle España October 2025 cover is a study in contrasts: leisure meets power, softness meets edge.

Her outfit, a sleek black ensemble (likely a bodysuit or swim-adjacent silhouette), clings with intention. The texture appears matte, absorbing light rather than reflecting it—an editorial choice that amplifies the noir mood. Sunglasses shield her gaze, adding a layer of detachment that feels more Old Hollywood than influencer pool day. No visible jewelry, no excess—just clean lines and a pose that says, “I’m here, but I’m not performing.”

The embedded text—“MODA EN LIBERTAD,” “ESCAPADAS EXPRES,” and “ESPECIAL WORKING + EXTRA KIDS”—suggests a thematic blend of freedom, escape, and modern multitasking. But Pataky’s presence reframes it. She’s not escaping—she’s commanding space. The quote fragments across the spread hint at a woman who’s learned to embrace vulnerability as strength, a shift from projected fortaleza to lived-in serenity.

Culturally, the image evokes the cinematic cool of Romy Schneider in La Piscine , with a dash of Helmut Newton’s poolside provocations. It’s fashion photoshoot meets psychological portrait—where the water is calm, but the woman is anything but passive.

Hair is slicked back or tucked away, makeup minimal—likely bronzed skin, defined brows, and a neutral lip. The styling cohesion is tight, editorial, and quietly luxurious.

Is Elsa Pataky redefining the poolside pose for a post-strength era—or simply reminding us that fashion’s most powerful statements often float in silence?

A broken heart backdrop, gold corsetry, and thigh-high attitude — Dua Lipa’s concert outfit ignites tour style with unapologetic edge (and a kiss to the crowd).

Dua Lipa doesn’t just perform — she stages a visual manifesto. On Night 2 of her Radical Optimism Tour at Madison Square Garden, she stepped into the spotlight in a gold corset ensemble that fused pop spectacle with dominatrix precision.

The look? A sculpted bodysuit in high-shine metallic gold, cinched at the waist and cut high at the hip — a silhouette that evokes Mugler’s archival power pieces and Beyoncé’s I Am… tour armor. Paired with matching knee-high boots and fishnet stockings, the outfit is pure performance fashion: bold, body-conscious, and built for movement.

Accessories are minimal, letting the outfit and attitude do the talking. Her microphone becomes an extension of the look — a prop, a weapon, a wand. No visible jewelry, no distractions. Just Dua, center stage, framed by a glowing red backdrop and a fractured heart graphic that feels more punk opera than pop concert.

Her pose — mid-kiss to the crowd — is theatrical, playful, and commanding. The lighting bathes her in crimson, amplifying the drama. It’s a spotlight moment that feels choreographed and spontaneous all at once.

Culturally, the look taps into the lineage of tour style as armor — think Madonna’s Gaultier cone bra, Lady Gaga’s Fame Monster latex, or Rosalía’s flamenco-meets-motorcross hybrids. But Dua’s twist is cleaner, more sculptural — less costume, more couture.

Hair is sleek, makeup bold — likely a smoky eye and contoured cheek to hold under stage lights. The styling cohesion is tight, editorial, and unapologetically pop.

A structured lilac button-up and cropped black trousers—Lili Reinhart’s media event look at Marie Claire’s Power Play blends press event style with quiet authority.

Lili Reinhart knows how to dress for a moment of impact—and at Marie Claire’s Power Play event in Philadelphia, she delivered a look that was all about quiet strength and editorial precision.

Her outfit centers on a structured button-up top in a soft lavender hue—tailored with clean seams and a slightly boxy silhouette that evokes modern minimalism. Paired with cropped black trousers, the ensemble strikes a balance between corporate polish and fashion-forward ease. It’s a celebrity event look that doesn’t scream for attention—it earns it.

Accessories are kept to a minimum, allowing the silhouette and color palette to take center stage. Black heels—likely patent or leather—anchor the look with subtle shine. No visible jewelry, no handbag—just clean lines and a confident stance.
