Dutch model Rianne Van Rompaey is the digital cover of the October 2022 issue of ELLE US. The noted beauty is seen wearing a sheer dress by Gucci for the cover image taken by Inez & Vinoodh, and for the accompanying shots, the redhead goes ethereal and whimsical in an array of sheer ensembles. Posing in the designs of Fendi, Lanvin, and Free People, amongst others, with styling by Alex White, the model turns up the charm, and looks fabulous, with her hair and makeup done by hairstylist Didier Malige and makeup artist Fulvia Farolfi.

For her interview, she talks about wanting to act, being a model for almost nine years, and working with a Dutch organization that helps refugees.

"I’ve relaxed into it. I’ve realized that my body doesn’t have to look a certain way, and my face doesn’t have to look a certain way. I don’t have to be perfect. That made me enjoy it so much more." - Rianne van Rompaey on modeling

Rianne on using acting on set:

“Putting on these characters is also a way to protect myself. Because it’s a job where it always feels like you’re only ever as good as your last shoot or show.”
