Australian acting sensations Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi have delivered a scorching visual spectacle for the latest edition of Vogue Australia, featuring across two distinct and captivating cover images. The dynamic duo, both hailing from Queensland, showcase their undeniable chemistry and style prowess in the magazine's highly anticipated February issue, which becomes available from Monday, 2 February.
A Tale of Two Covers: Passion and Intimacy
The first cover presents an intensely passionate moment, with the 35-year-old Robbie and 28-year-old Elordi locked in a close embrace. Elordi's gaze is fixed longingly upon his co-star, creating a palpable sense of drama and connection. Robbie commands attention in an intricate black and gold Versace bralette paired with matching shorts, elevated by elegant earrings from the renowned Australian jewellery house, Paspaley. Elordi smoulders opposite her in a simple black tank top and Versace jeans, his look punctuated by sophisticated Cartier earrings, a matching necklace, and a ring.
Alternate Imagery and Sartorial Elegance
The second cover offers a more relaxed but equally intimate scene, depicting the pair reclining comfortably on a sofa with their arms wrapped around each other. For this shot, Robbie selected a minimalist black Chanel bralette complemented by a sheer, patterned black skirt. Elordi demonstrated his fashion acumen by layering a cosy, fleecy Bottega Veneta jacket over a crisp white tank top.
Additional photographs from the exclusive shoot reveal further stylistic narratives. One compelling image captures Robbie and Elordi in a kitchen setting. The Barbie superstar wears a black bralette beneath a pair of relaxed, loose-fitting overalls, while Elordi cuts a remarkably dapper figure in a pristine, ivory-coloured Tom Ford suit.
In another standout shot, Robbie poses majestically on the bonnet of a classic Chevrolet Impala convertible, looking absolutely breathtaking. She showcases her enviable figure in a form-fitting Hermès mini dress, accessorised with a striking Paspaley necklace. Elordi completes the frame in a sleek black Bottega Veneta jacket and matching trousers, layered over a crisp white collared shirt.
From Queensland to Global Stardom
The accompanying interview delves into the pair's shared origins and remarkable journeys from Australia's Sunshine State to the pinnacle of Hollywood. Reflecting on their upcoming collaboration in the latest film adaptation of Emily Brontë's iconic gothic romance, Wuthering Heights, Robbie remarked on the amusing circumstance. "I mean, it's kind of hilarious that two Queenslanders are the lead in this iconic British literary classic," she said. "Because, we're not even from Sydney, you know? Everyone in Australia's probably like, 'These couple of bogans.'"
Robbie also confessed to her early dreams of conquering the vast distance between the Gold Coast and Tinseltown. "I remember thinking it was so far away and so impossible to be from the Gold Coast and make it in Hollywood," she revealed. "I think if someone had done it before me, from even just anywhere in Queensland, I think I would have gone after it sooner."
Elordi echoed this sentiment, sharing a nostalgic memory of his own unconventional pursuit of opportunity. "I remember there was a period where I was thinking if I just hang out around Movie World, maybe I’ll get cast," he admitted. "Maybe someone from the studios would walk past, having a cigarette." Their candid reflections highlight the determination and unique paths that have led both actors to international acclaim and this glamorous Vogue showcase.
