Actors may not necessarily sign up to be fashion models when they start out in showbiz – but that is quite often what they inadvertently end up doing. Luckily, that means us folks at home get to sample the best and boldest of outfit styles through faces we’re all familiar with.
One such actor is Elle Fanning. Sister of Dakota Fanning – whom you may know from ‘Twilight’ – but a celebrated actor in her own right, Elle Fanning has starred in a few famous films of her own. Does ‘Maleficent’ ring a bell? Or ‘The Neon Demon’?
Achieving the level of fame she has comes with its own perks – one of which includes dressing up in nice clothes for magazine photoshoots. Life could definitely be worse for her.
Fortunately for us, Elle has worn a lot of fantastic outfits in her time. Although we’d like to copy them all, we’ve especially picked out 5 Elle Fanning looks you need to recreate ASAP!
This clear-cut look stands out as a well-made, well-dressed white dress. Although the design is simple, the waves on the torso make the dress a little more complicated – and, subsequently, it’s impossible to take your eyes off this look.
Elle’s choice of dress here makes her look like the most confident person in the room. With a fashion sense like that, it’s not hard to see why.

Elle even has a trendy look for casual summer days. The generosity!
Crop tops exploded onto the scene a couple of years back, and have maintained their status as a staple for late-2010s fashion. Bandeaus, their even smaller evolution, are only getting more popular. Their versatility as a fashion piece means they’ll always be relied upon, whether it’s as a layer underneath a shirt or jacket, or as the main piece of the outfit.
Elle combined her crop top with a plain white skirt to keep the attention on her crop top’s colour – a surefire way to show off her pretty floral pattern and keep cool at the same time.

Bring back 50s vibes with a low neck vest top and over-the-shoulder cardigan.
Elle’s outfit here shows off the best thing about her top – the lining. The deep contrast between the black lining and the white material is calmed down by the off-white cardigan, and the denim shorts add a shot of much-needed colour to an otherwise too-bright outfit. Perfect for lounging in the summertime – and perfect for pretending you’re a luxurious model relaxing on the beaches of LA.

The colours take a while to get used to, but if you don’t take too long blinking their brightness out of your eyes, you can appreciate Elle’s outfit for all of its attention-grabbing boldness.
Red and yellow is a very unconventional combination – here, she resembles something close to a rhubarb and custard sweet – but Elle manages to pull it off. Again, it’s the contrast that sells the style; but, to top it all off, the sharp lines of the suit also make this outfit a resounding success.

A moodier look for Elle also brings back vintage vibes. This time the 60s and 70s, when Rockers and punks ruled the roost.
Thick black eyeliner and a studded leather look give this outfit a grungy edge. The ruffled, layered blouse is undoubtedly the show stopper though. A flamboyant look that takes no prisoners, anyone who wears it is surely someone not to be messed with.
