A special edition with Number_i's Yuta Jinguji on the cover will also be released at the same time. The spirit of sisterhood deeply engraved in Fendi's DNA. Along with the message "Less I, more us" that Maria Grazia Chiuri advocated in her first collection, Mina expresses the brand's new vision. In the "ELLE MEN" feature, Number_i's Yuta Jinguji appears solo for the second time and graces the cover of the special edition. Number_i, whose contract with the prestigious American label Atlantic Records was announced in May this year, is expected to make further leaps forward. Yuta Jinguji, wearing AMIRI's new collection inspired by Hollywood in the 1970s, was photographed in Paris.

On the release date, ELLE Digital will feature unpublished photos from the magazine and a digital-exclusive long interview, and ELLE MEN Instagram will also feature a special movie that can only be seen on social media.

From fashion to beauty and culture, its appeal will be explored from all angles. In ELLE beauty, Ai Tominaga appears. Cosmetics born from excellent research and development capabilities, and a spirit that values space and peace of mind. Focusing on the true value of Japanese beauty, which is needed again precisely in this era of digital bias.
