After a five-year hiatus, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is back to fronting the cover of ELLE UK for April 2021. And despite the time off, she looks better than ever!
The veteran supermodel is no stranger to a glam magazine cover, but when we saw this issue, our jaws dropped. Taking to Instagram to promote the shoot, Rosie revealed that she’d nearly bared it all for the cameras, stripping down to a pair of high-waisted briefs. See for yourself!

To cover the issue, Rosie was styled in barely-there fashion, including an Emporio Armani top and bottoms from Les Girls Les Boys (chosen by stylist Aurelia Donaldson). In one image, she slipped on a tan Louis Vuitton blazer and covered herself up with some strategic hand placement. Slay!

In another pic (that’s since garnered over 316K likes), Rosie really does take it ALL off–just check out that toned booty! “Laying it bare for ELLE UK April issue,” she wrote in the caption, adding the peach emoji. “Thank you to the incredible team at @elleuk who have supported me so much throughout my career.”
The supermodel also tagged her full team (including photographer @quentin_jones), proving that it takes a village to make a shoot come to life.

In celebration of the April issue hitting newsstands, a few of Rosie's closest friends recorded video messages asking her important questions. One of those friends happened to be Balmain's creative director Olivier Rousteing, who asked about the worst moment in her fashion history.
"It's probably on a shoot or during a fashion show when I haven't gotten to choose the look," the model revealed to ELLE. That said--we've never seen her look anything less than stunning!
