ELLE continues its global 80th anniversary celebrations, following the landmark event held at the beginning of the year in Italy during Milan Fashion Week. As part of these worldwide initiatives, ELLE Spain now honors the brand’s eight decades of empowering women through a special collector’s edition dedicated to style, courage, and creativity. The 450-page November issue, divided into three chapters — past, present, and future — revisits the magazine’s legacy while looking ahead with optimism.
The issue features ten exceptional women who embody the values of ELLE: Penélope Cruz, Natalie Portman, Winona Ryder, Ana Belén, Paris Jackson, Victoria Beckham, Iman, Camille Razat, Nieves Álvarez, and Paula Echevarría. Together, they represent the magazine’s enduring spirit of authenticity, strength, and inspiration.
Benedetta Poletti, Director of ELLE Spain, said: This issue is unique. A collector’s edition. A journey through time. A trip around the ELLE world in 80 years. A thrilling adventure that has transformed our lives and that we divided into three narrative chapters — past, present, and future — to remember where we come from, celebrate who we are, and imagine what we will become.
Founded in Paris in 1945 by Hélène Gordon-Lazareff, ELLE was born as a symbol of freedom and renewal — a magazine that spoke to women about themselves, with a distinctive mix of seriousness, irony, and optimism. Eighty years later, ELLE remains a global reference in fashion, culture, and empowerment, continuing to amplify women’s voices and celebrate their creativity across the world.
