Elle Macpherson has delivered infectious attitude to the pages of ELLE magazine’s global editions for 43 years. Looking at these vivacious images of ‘The Body’ for ELLE Spain’s [IG] July 2025 issue, it’s difficult to believe Macpherson is age 61.
The top model has practiced healthy living for many years now, but she’s also revealed in recent books and interviews, that the Aussie beauty controlled her weight with a 10-year cocaine addiction.
The Paradise of El Hierro: Maria Khan by Xavi Gordo for Bazaar Spain
Harper’s Bazaar Spain [IG] May 2025 devotes an issue to the theme of water, with model Maria Khan lensed by Xavi Gordo [IG] in ‘Acqua’.
The island of El Hierro embraces and awes, like the crystal-clear, dark-bottomed water that surrounds it. Among its volcanoes and extraordinary natural sculptures, model María Khan finds peace in this swimwear story, an ode to the power of nature in the most sustainable corner of the Canary Islands.
Over the past few decades, this island has embraced a pioneering approach to sustainability, driven by a commitment to renewable energy and environmental conservation and its UNESCO Biosphere Reserve status.

Arizona Muse Is Honored by ELLE Spain for Changemaker Activism in Fashion Industry

Arizona Muse’s Heritage
‘Muse’ remains one of the top environmental activists in the world. Born in Tucson in 1988, Arizona Muse grew up in Santa Fe, New Mexico with her English mother, a therapist; her American father, an art dealer; and her younger brother, now a pro snowboarder.
When beloved photographer Peter Lindbergh photographed Muse in the Mojave Desert, named for the indigenous Mohave people, and located in southeastern California and southwestern Nevada, with small portions extending into Arizona and Utah, he told Vogue: “The way she moves is very different from other runway models.”
Karlie Kloss and Carolina Herrera: A Modern Women Brand Match in ELLE España
The astonishingly grounded and successful supermodel activist, humanitarian, wife and mother, philanthropist, investor, and hands-on businesswoman Karlie Kloss covers the December 2024 issue of ELLE España [IG].
The Carolina Herrera ‘Good Girl’ ambassador is styled by Bárbara Garralda in three ELLE covers and a fashion story for the Carolina Herrera brand. Photographer Xavi Gordo [IG] captures the perfectly elegant looks for the holidays and resort getaways, as AOC dives into an examination of a Kloss-Herrera alliance that’s worth a Harvard Business School case study.
@KodeWithKlossy
The successful relationship between Karlie Kloss and Carolina Herrera the brand and their Good Girl fragrance is a thriving business/personal activist relationship founded in 2018.
Karlie’s philanthropy is centered around @KodeWithKlossy — her 2015-launched, summer camp initiative teaching teen girls ages 13-18 to code.
Karlie Kloss and Reproductive Freedom
Today Karlie’s fight is not at all glamorous, as she increases her activism around women’s health access. Kloss chooses carefully her partners in activism in ways that do no harm to Carolina Herrera.
Those partners include Melinda Gates and her daughter Phoebe Gates.

Kruger is in Cannes, where her new movie ‘The Shrouds’ is in competition and she shares the screen for a second time [back to back] with Vincent Cassel. The film debuts Monday night June 20.
The plot of ‘The Shrouds’ is fascinating and controversial. Karsh, played by Vincent Cassel in a storyline experienced by director Cronenberg with the death of his wife, is inconsolable in the same situation.
He invents a technology that enables the living to monitor their loved ones in their graves.
Penélope Cruz covers the April 2024 issue of ELLE Spain, working with photographer Xavi Gordo [IG] to deliver some of the most precious images of the actor I remember. Cruz turns 50 on April 28, and Gordo has captures her inner spirit, as well as her physicality in these simple but so revealing images. He and Penelope have quite a dance going on.
Penelope Discovers Women’s World
Cruz’s mother was a hairdresser and she and her sister spent a great deal of time in a salon after school. It was there that Penelope observed the women carefully, understanding not only their desire to be pretty in their lives, but practicing rituals thousands of years old. The young daughter Penelope developed insights that would fuel her future success as an actor, after she first paid her way and contributed to the family finances as a model.

Model Tasha Tilberg is back in a denim-rich fashion world cover story for ELLE Italia. Barcelona-based Xavi Gordo [IG] is behind the lens.
I have the same response to this fashion story that I did eco-warrior Tasha Tilberg’s story for Fashion Canada April 2022. The clothes were great — and these denim clothes have terrific styling by Laura Seganti. But which are the sustainable choices?
