Jenna Ortega unveils a raw, captivating portrait for Glamour Deutschland, capturing an intimate mood that’s both fierce and fragile.
There are fashion moments that demand a gasp, and then there are those that hold a quiet power, a gaze that pulls you in and refuses to let go. Jenna Ortega’s latest cover for Glamour Deutschland falls squarely into the latter category. It’s less a celebrity photograph and more a piece of modern portraiture—stripped-back, vulnerable, and absolutely magnetic.
Shot with an almost blinding white light, the image eliminates distractions, focusing all attention on Ortega’s face and the intricate details of her styling. Her hair is artfully undone, a few wispy tendrils escaping a loose updo that feels spontaneous and real. The makeup is subtle yet impactful—a perfect, defined brow, and a smokey, lived-in eye that lends a dramatic depth to her already intense gaze. It’s a masterclass in controlled chaos, where every stray hair and smudge of liner feels utterly intentional.
Olivia Dunne debuts the new Oakley x Meta collection with a breezy, ’90s-inspired photoshoot that feels like a throwback to summer bliss.
There’s a certain undeniable magic to a summer photoshoot—the light is brighter, the smiles are bigger, and the fashion just feels… effortless. Olivia Dunne captures that exact spirit in her recent collaboration for the new Oakley x Meta collection. The backdrop of a clear, cloudy sky is the perfect canvas for a look that is both clean and cool, a testament to the power of classic, uncomplicated style.
Karen Gillan, in a turn from her usual playful red carpet persona, unveils a trio of sleek, high-fashion looks for Photobook—a study in minimalist drama and sharp, sculptural silhouettes.
There’s a shift happening, a quiet but powerful pivot from the playful, quirky characters we’ve come to adore Karen Gillan for. Her latest Photobook magazine spread feels like an intentional statement, a deliberate shedding of old skins for something more refined and, dare we say, fiercely elegant. Shot by Mike Ruiz, the series of images is a masterclass in controlled poise, with each frame telling a distinct story through color and form.
The first look presents Gillan in a rich, chocolate-brown satin halter dress. The fabric itself is the star—draped and ruched with an architectural precision that creates a plunging V-neckline. The effect is one of effortless sophistication, amplified by the simple gold bangles and striking, sculptural drop earrings. Her famously vibrant red hair, a character in its own right, is a windswept halo, a beautiful, kinetic counterpoint to the still and statuesque pose. It’s a study in contrasts: softness and structure, movement and stillness.
We then see her in a flowing, marigold-hued caftan-style dress with full sleeves that billow around her. The high neck and cinched waist give it a regal, almost Grecian feel, while the fabric’s subtle sheen catches the light, creating an otherworldly glow. It’s a bohemian moment, to be sure, but one anchored by a powerful stance—hands on hips, gaze direct. The statement earrings are back, this time in a bone-like texture that grounds the ethereal look. Is this the new face of celestial chic, or simply an actress fully owning her power?
Perhaps the most arresting visual is the two-shot image, where Gillan appears first in a vibrant, color-blocked dress that’s part-glamour, part-psychedelic masterpiece. The pale yellow, aqua, and shimmering silver stripes create a kinetic energy that echoes the movement of her hair. Posed leaning forward, she looks like a modern mermaid just emerged from the sea. Next to it, a starkly different look: a white column dress with a bold, bright green panel down the front. The pleated green section creates a striking graphic effect, a piece of wearable art that feels both futuristic and timeless. Paired with white boots and silver cuff bracelets, it’s a bold, confident choice. This is not the Nebula we know; this is an evolved style icon in full flight.
The final image, a two-shot of its own, pairs the white-and-green dress with a stunning shot of Gillan in a head-to-toe emerald green satin suit. She is captured kneeling, her hair a wild mane of copper and gold. The luxurious sheen of the satin and the rich color create an atmosphere of quiet opulence. It’s a look that’s both relaxed and deeply intentional, proving that bold color and rich texture can be both comfortable and commanding.
Each look is a testament to the power of thoughtful styling and a confident muse. It’s a reminder that celebrity style is an ever-evolving narrative, one that we’re eagerly watching Karen Gillan write.
