Elle UK Apologizes for Cropping Rosé From Paris Fashion Week Photo

The magazine attributes the edit to size constraints.

Overview

  • Rosé attended Saint Laurent’s Women’s 2026 S/S show as the brand’s global ambassador and posed with Hailey Bieber, Charli XCX, and Zoë Kravitz.
  • An Elle UK Instagram post featured the group without Rosé after cropping the far-right portion of the image, prompting accusations of racial bias.
  • The publication deleted the post, uploaded solo shots of Rosé with praise for her look, and issued an Instagram Story apology stating no offense was intended.
  • Elle UK later added the apology language to a Rosé post because Stories vanish after 24 hours, signaling an attempt to document the correction.
  • Charli XCX shared the four-person photo in which Rosé appeared darkened and Hailey Bieber reposted it, while fans continued to demand a direct apology to Rosé.
