Adele Covers ELLE US and UK September with 5-Stars, Real-Deal Adele Interview

Successful women like Beyonce, Serena just last week in Vogue US, and Adele are more likely to write their own magazine essays these days — and for good reason. It’s the only way they can guarantee that their main points are in the headlines, and not dead on the editorial floor in a world of clickbait.

Adele doesn’t control her cover story interview with Emma Carmichael in the September 2022 issue of ELLE US. Of course, we don’t know the terms of her exchange with Carmichael and signoffs before the interview went to press. It’s stands as a masterpiece, in AOC’s opinion.

ELLE chose the clickbait quote for IG — and we promise you that it will become big headline, even though Adele shares these thoughts at the end of the ELLE narrative. AOC won’t call it out this minute, feeding it oxygen in an a rich, deeply-personal and articulate interview that is primary about Adele as an artist, her relationship with fans, the agony of walking away from her Las Vegas residency in 2021, days before its launch.

Adele Covers Two Continents: Here in American Vogue US November 2021 by Alasdair McLellan AOC Fashion

On the British side of the Atlantic, Adele signals the return of va va voom dressing. Not only has Adele walked out of the shadows and into the light — but her new-found roar is heard on both sides of the Atlantic in the first-ever cover star collab between American Vogue and British Vogue.

In America, Adele is much more subdued, compared to her Steven Meisel images in British Vogue. She looks fabulous on the cover, wearing a green Valentino Haute Couture gown.

Vogue writer Abby Aguirre catches up with Adele at Heart & Hustle, a private gym in West Hollywood.

We learn that Adele has been doing rigorous weight-lifting and circuit-training sessions every day for three years and counting. Sometimes, Adele works out twice in one day if her anxiety is running high. The world agrees on very little at this point, and women who lose weight are slammed regularly on social media for betraying the sisterhood and our core argument that all bodies are beautiful.

Adele, Reborn in a Transatlantic Vogue Triumph: In Vogue UK November by Steven Meisel

Adele covers the November issues of both British Vogue and American Vogue. Across the pond, the jaw-dropping partnership puts Adele in the curatorial fashion arms of EIC Edward Enninful and the impeccable eye of master photographer Steven Meisel.

Adele’s attitude about the public response to her new image is “I couldn’t give a flying f**k” (about what anyone thinks of her image). Spellbinding glamour comes from within and not from Instagram likes. And the hair? Adele has found her inner lioness.

Up next, Adele rolls up the safari mat of her inner lioness for American Vogue, in a more subdued fashion story lensed by Alasdair McLellan. LOL, for just one precious moment — LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL! ~ Anne
