There’s a select roster of celebrities who don’t exactly have the best track record when it comes to bringing it, via the covers of our favorite fashion glossies. Make no mistake, Emma Corrin is one of those select few. Over the years, Emma covering everything from Harper’s Bazaar to Vogue Germany has ultimately been declared a total flop. Kenya Hunt of British ELLE welcomes Emma Corrin onto the cover of the magazine’s April 2025 edition. Hunt, who has served as ELLE editor-in-chief since 2022, welcomes Corrin back as cover star a little over two years after her last cover appearance. The British actor poses before the lens of Yulia Gorbachenko and is styled by Charles Varenne for the occasion. In the minimalist cover shot, Corrin poses in a Miu Miu polo (because, what else?) and the 1934 Aga Khan Cartier tiara from Cartier.

“A polo and the 1934 Aga Khan Cartier Tiara… get that advertiser budget!” Kite immediately heralded upon checking out the cover.

“And timed to help publicize the new Cartier exhibition at the V&A,” tigerrouge chimed in.

Deleted Member 116857 commented: “Why does this person have such a stranglehold on fashion/film/tv. I’ve had enough. They annoy me so much!”

“I’m starting to like Emma, but enough with the Miu Miu overload,” complained jjjmmm.

“The styling definitely suits Corrin. However, this is not what I consider ‘power dressing’,” shared forum member MModa.

“Power dressing, not,” echoed TaylorBinque.

Yet not everyone was left so disinterested. “Oddly enough, I don’t hate this,” confessed vogue28. “There’s a simplicity and sense of vulnerability that I like. The use of the tiara instantly reminded me of the photograph of Kate Moss by Bert Stern from 2001!”
