Elyse Hofer wears a cream floral Retro Stage dress in August 2026

Elyse Hofer is bringing a little old-school romance to her latest fashion shoot. The international runway and editorial model stars in new August 2026 imagery for Retro Stage, wearing a dreamy cream floral dress that feels straight out of a vintage summer wardrobe.

The dress is built around a soft ivory base covered in an intricate botanical print. Tiny flowers and delicate stems appear in shades of purple, blue, pink, red, orange and green, giving the otherwise understated dress plenty of personality. The colorful floral pattern is especially pretty against the light background, while the flowing skirt gives the look an easy, feminine movement.

Up top, the dress features slender spaghetti straps and a low neckline, with a small gathered bow detail sitting at the center of the bust. The fitted bodice then opens into a full, flowing midi-length skirt. In one of the images, Hofer lifts the skirt slightly as she poses, showing just how much volume and movement the silhouette has.

She kept the accessories simple. Hofer paired the floral dress with white strappy flat sandals, allowing the print to remain the focus. Delicate drop earrings add a subtle sparkle, while her natural-looking manicure keeps everything fresh and uncomplicated.

Her brunette hair is styled in soft, voluminous waves, swept into a relaxed side part. The loose styling works beautifully with the vintage-inspired dress, while glowing skin, defined lashes and a rosy lip complete the feminine beauty look.

Hofer has built her career across runway, editorial and lifestyle modeling, with experience including New York, Tokyo and Dubai fashion events. Her own portfolio describes modeling as a form of storytelling and collaboration, an approach that suits this softly romantic Retro Stage shoot particularly well.

The Retro Stage connection is not new for Hofer either. Her official Linktree lists Retro Stage among her fashion affiliations, while a February 2026 post also showed her working with the brand on swimwear.
