For 80 years, ELLE has championed the voices and talent of women in fashion, beauty, culture and beyond. Earlier this year, the brand celebrated its storied legacy with a spectacular party in Milan, bringing together designers, celebrities and editors from over 50 editions worldwide. But the festivities are not quite over yet. To further mark this milestone, ELLE has launched an exclusive virtual exhibition celebrating the work of women artists from around the world.

In honour of those who sculpt the world through art, ELLE invited 31 women artists from diverse cultures, generations, and experiences to contribute a unique piece of art that embodies the brand’s bold and innovative spirit. From abstract paintings and bold illustrations to delicate sculptural pieces, there is something for every art enthusiast.

The artworks are now available for viewing through ELLE’s virtual exhibition, an exciting new digital experience for artists and art lovers alike, before going to auction via ARTCURIAL on November 14 in Paris and online. In line with ELLE’s longstanding mission, all proceeds will go to NGO CARE in support of programmes dedicated to women’s empowerment.

In addition to the virtual exhibition, ELLE Boutique has teamed up with five contributing artists—CACHETEJACK, Chou Yi, Marion Charlet, Mari Ito and Ramona Nordal—to design prints for an exclusive capsule collection. Arranged around the themes of freedom, creativity, femininity, and vivacity, the collection embodies the joie de vivre characteristic of the ELLE brand.

Transcending cultures and borders, ELLE's 80th anniversary initiatives showcase the diverse and creative voices of women worldwide, each of whom has contributed to shaping the brand into what it is today. More than an art exhibition or fashion collection, they are an invitation to witness and honour the creativity of women of the past, present and future.
