In a moody stairwell tableau, Rachel Zegler channels vintage couture—lace, volume, and a whisper of drama—for Elle UK’s July 2025 editorial lens.

There’s a hush to the image—like the moment before a curtain rises. Captured by Elle UK for their July 2025 issue, Rachel Zegler ascends a carpeted staircase in a look that feels plucked from a mid-century dream, yet grounded in the now. The hallway is ornate: paneled walls, polished wood, and a soft wash of golden light. But it’s Zegler who commands the frame.

Dakota Johnson brought noir elegance to the 59th Karlovy Vary Film Festival—accepting the President’s Award in a sculpted Mugler gown and satin Jimmy Choos.

There’s something about Dakota Johnson that makes even the most formal of honors feel like a scene from a moody European film. On July 5, 2025, at the 59th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, she stepped onto the red carpet outside the Spa Hotel Thermal in the Czech Republic to receive the KVIFF President’s Award—and did so in a look that whispered old-Hollywood glamour with a distinctly modern edge.

In a moody hallway tableau, Madelaine Petsch channels vintage edge—pairing a mustard knit, brown mini, and black boots for Andie Jane’s lens in July 2025.

There’s something cinematic—almost Lynchian—about the setting: a narrow hotel corridor, patterned carpet underfoot, EXIT sign glowing red at the end. Into this liminal space steps Madelaine Petsch, captured by photographer Andie Jane in a July 2025 shoot that feels equal parts retro and restless.
