Ellise Gitas Unveils Dark Pop Glamour in Los Angeles

Her outfit is a two-piece ensemble that plays with both silhouette and texture. The top is a black bustier with a soft, ruched texture across the bodice and a delicate lace fringe along the top edge. The structured corset-like fit is both feminine and slightly edgy. This is paired with a matching mini skirt that continues the same ruched texture but is printed with a striking red floral pattern. The combination of black and red, along with the ruffled hemline of the skirt, creates a look that is both romantic and rebelliously punk.

The styling cohesion is where the look truly shines. Ellise’s vibrant red hair, with dark roots, becomes a key accessory, tying directly into the skirt’s crimson pattern. Her makeup is sharp and dramatic, with a clean complexion, defined brows, and a bold red lip that matches the flowers on her skirt. Her nails are painted black, a subtle nod to the dark-pop aesthetic. The overall mood is one of fierce confidence and theatricality, with her pose—microphone in hand, one arm raised—conveying passion and control. The disco ball hanging from the ceiling and the red banner behind her further contribute to the electrifying atmosphere. It’s an outfit that feels designed for the stage—a perfect representation of her unique brand of haunting, dark music.
