Here at theFashionSpot, we’ve begun to have a love/hate relationship with ELLE. After all, over recent months, the American fashion title’s front covers featuring Daisy Edgar-Jones, Zoë Kravitz, Lady Gaga, and Kylie Jenner have failed to strike a chord. On the other hand, we’ve fawned over Pamela Anderson, Demi Moore, and Tyla covers. Up next on the cover of ELLE is Addison Rae. Nina Garcia (who has served as editor-in-chief since 2017) welcomes the American singer onto ELLE‘s annual ‘Women in Music’ issue for May 2025. Fresh from the cover of Vogue France, Addison poses for famed photographer Ellen von Unwerth, complete with ELLE fashion director Alex White reporting for styling duties. Across two covers, the “Diet Pepsi” songstress works looks from Prada and Rosamosario (teamed with pieces of jewelry from Cartier).
Addison Rae for ELLE May 2025
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:
“Much better than what I expected to see. I like it!” crmsn immediately confessed.
“I’m surprised at how good this is,” echoed Lucien112.
Vogue28 voiced: “Everything in the first cover is working for me – from the choice of masthead and font color to the styling. It’s kinda giving me Carine Roitfeld’s Vogue Paris in terms of concept and styling. Strongest cover of ELLE in what feels like a VERY long time!”
“Love it!” forum member caioherrero chimed in.
“Beautiful woman. Beautiful photo shoot,” commended MModa.
Also very much a fan was KoV, “Gorgeous and incredible. Just give her the Best New Artist Grammy now!” they heralded.
