Alicia Vikander - Vogue UK's New-Romantic Editorial • CelebMafia

Alicia Vikander unveils a new-romantic sensibility for her Vogue UK editorial, a series of intimate, cinematic photos that feel like a lost scene from a 19th-century drama.

In a time of overt celebrity spectacle, Alicia Vikander’s latest Vogue UK editorial feels like a hushed secret. For the September 2025 issue, she steps into a role far more intimate than any she’s played on screen, debuting a series of photos that are part old-world elegance, part modern, undone glam. The setting—a stately, beautifully-appointed room—serves as the perfect backdrop for a story of quiet decadence.

In one shot, Vikander leans back on a plush settee, her hair tousled, a dark, lacy dress slipping from her shoulders. There’s a glass table in front of her, holding a large bouquet of blue hydrangeas. The scene is one of languid grace, a moment of pure atmosphere. In another, she sits on a table, a yellow robe dramatically draped to reveal a bare leg. Her heel is kicked off onto the floor, a single glass of red wine on the table beside her. It’s a look that’s both theatrical and deeply human, capturing a sense of rebellious luxury.

There is also a shot of her seated on a bed, a golden fur coat wrapped around her, styled with a simple black bra. It is a study in texture and contrast: the soft fur against the bare skin, the richness of the setting against the undone hair and minimal makeup. It is the kind of picture that makes you want to know the story behind it.

The entire photoshoot, from the styling to the lighting, works to create a unified narrative. Vikander’s signature nonchalant cool is on full display. The images are a compelling reminder that true style isn’t about the flashiest trends but about a confident, understated mood.
