Celebrating the intersection between fashion and film, this historic cover builds on the momentum of ELLE Canada’s September 2018 issue featuring Tracee Ellis Ross, which was celebrated internationally as a marker of change and inclusivity in the publishing industry and media at large. KO Média is also proud to confirm that this year’s issue is 20 percent larger than 2018’s.
