He’s a favourite; his love affair with perfume never fails to inspire me.” – Adriana Ermter, executive editor, beauty and health “Every time one of the designer’s sketches arrived, we all stopped what we were doing to see how he or she captured the ELLE girl. Who doesn’t like being a muse?” – Christina Reynolds, senior editor “Interviewing Claudelle was an honour because she was ELLE’s first cover girl.” – Amanda Wenek, intern “Compiling the top 10 workout playlist of the decade for ELLE Body had me shimmying around the office to old faves like ‘Yeah!’ by Usher and ‘Toxic’ by Britney.” – Ally Dean, associate editor “I loved writing the Afterparty page; it was fun to explore the different royal-themed trends!” – Jaclyn Tersigni, intern “I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so hard as when we shot the wigs story! We kept trying them all on; I looked like King Kong with the punk one!” – Beatriz Juarez, art director
