Alison Brie's Countrycore Rebellion for Marie Claire • CelebMafia

Alison Brie trades the red carpet for a rural backdrop, unveiling a series of unexpectedly brilliant looks that fuse rugged textures with refined silhouettes (a glorious, high-fashion dust-up, if you will).

There’s an undeniable thrill in seeing high fashion clash with the mundane. For Marie Claire’s August 2025 Entertainment Issue, Alison Brie and photographer Jonny Marlow do just that, dropping a series of sartorial masterpieces into a dusty, sun-drenched farm. The result? A narrative that feels less like a traditional fashion spread and more like a fever dream of modern American style.

The cover look, a triumph of texture, is an immediate showstopper. A cognac-hued jacket, heavy with buckled straps and a glorious cascade of leather fringe, is a powerful statement. Worn with high black boots and a confident, windswept pose on a hay bale, it’s a redefinition of Westerncore—less cowgirl, more couture outlaw.

Then comes the complete tonal shift. A look that is all ethereal drama, featuring a sheer black blouse and skirt layered over a crisp white shirt. The fabric, a weightless tulle, billows around her as she stands in front of a stable stall. This look’s juxtaposition of delicate sheerness with chunky heels and knee-high socks tied with delicate bows is a delightful visual pun, a sophisticated doll lost in the country.

The editorial is a masterclass in mood. From the fuzzy, powder-blue overshirt paired with a black bralette and flowing fringe skirt—a look that’s both cozy and fiercely modern—to a ’60s-inspired tweed dress with a graphic scarf, each outfit is a deliberate subversion. It’s a bold fashion story that asks us to rethink our expectations of glamour.
