'It's All About Celebrating Bold Self-Expression' — Ariana Grande Opens Up About Her New, Post-Glinda Makeover
Ariana Grande has become known for her commitment to a look. Once, it was an A-line mini dress worn with a high-pitched ponytail, while most recently it has been Glinda-pink or nothing. Now, she's taking another look towards the rainbow, but this time from a whole new aspect.

Returning to her role as a Swarovski ambassador for its SS25 campaign, Grande takes things in a typically sparkly direction while dressed up in a kaleidoscope of colourful crystals that dazzle in the Mert and Marcus-shot imagery.'I love the storytelling,' Grande tells ELLE UK of the portraits. 'I love the vibrant colours and the way these pieces catch the light in every shade imaginable. It's full of so much pure joy.'
Swarovski is a household name around the world and Grande understands how far and wide these photographs will be seen, as well as how fortunate she is to collaborate with such a creative enterprise. 'It's an honour to represent a house that shares my passion for creativity and continues to push the boundaries beyond the world of jewellery,' she added.
Fans of Grande will be most pleased to see that her famous ponytail returns for the campaign - though this time is comes lilac-tipped and considerably shorter. In one of the photos she takes on a monochrome guise with immaculate coordination as her hair, sunglasses, clothing and jewellery are all the same lilac. It's the same idea but different execution for Grande as she swaps blush pink for pretty purple.
No stranger to dying her hair (remember the Cat Valentine days!), there's no regrets from Grande on this hairpiece. 'Continuing this creative journey with Giovanna [Battaglia Engelbert, creative director] and Swarovski has been such a dream,' she affirmed. 'From our recent capsule collection to the stunning Swarovski campaigns, it's all about celebrating bold self-expression and I'm so grateful to continue creating magic together!'
And just like that, Grande waves her wand once again.£79.00 at swarovski.com£179.00 at swarovski.com£139.00 at swarovski.com£230.00 at swarovski.com£400.00 at swarovski.com£330.00 at swarovski.com

How ‘Ginny And Georgia' Went From A Hate Watch With A Flair For Absurdity, To Its Best Series Yet
Ginny & Georgia has come a long way. Season three of the teen drama made its return to our screens on June 3, and in just seven days since its release, it's already smashed records it could have only dreamed of in its first seasons. As well as this, it has surpassed its teen counterparts including Never Have I Ever (a show acclaimed for its consistent quality) in IMDb ratings. But how did the once painfully embarrassing show get here?From the onset of season one, the teen drama aimed high, attempting to juggle themes of romance, teenage mental health, racism, trauma, and a frustrated mother-daughter relationship. At the best of times, the series fell short of providing its characters and storylines the necessary depth that was needed to realistically convey these themes. FIND OUT MORE ON ELLE COLLECTIVE The odd intensely embarrassing and awkward scenes peppered throughout the first two seasons (Ginny saluting to Marcus, Hunter tap dancing down the school corridors) made the show fall into the category of cringeworthy teen drama. You'd be forgiven if the show made its way into your DNF pile, after coming across any of the clips that went viral on social media (for the wrong reasons). Yet, four years on from the series' debut in 2021, Ginny and Georgia has managed to turn itself around and become one Netflix's highest rated coming-of-age teen dramas. Season three marks a clear tonal shift - not just in the writing, but in how it treats its audience. Much like its characters, it has matured and finally acknowledges that while long-standing fans would keep on watching, the show deserved more than turning its supporters into reluctant fans and hate watchers - similar much like what has happened with And Just Like That and The Handmaid's Tale. Georgia, who was once the chaotic centre of every storyline is given room to be more than just her lies. As viewers, we see a more human and relatable version of her during the aftermath of arrest - she is scared and unsure of herself. It's a side we have rarely seen in her adult character. As for Ginny, she really comes into her own in the third season. No longer a teen protagonist that is overshadowed by her mum's life choices, we meet a far more likeable and grounded Ginny. As she grapples with her identity, independence and mental health, her character's growth feels aligned in a genuine sense of relatability, rather than coming across as performative. Another reason for the show's success lays in its renewed treatment of its supporting characters, namely Max and Marcus. This time around, she has been given the space to enact in emotional breakdowns - plenty of Max's scenes have been real tearjerkers due to the honesty in them. Like his sister, Marcus's struggle with depression has been heralded as an accurate depiction of how your mental health can take a turn for the worse, as by the end of the season we see him being driven off to rehab. Rather than being portrayed as a loner who struggles with internal conflicts, his depression is shown in its entirety and is handled with care and depth. And it's not just the characters that have received a much-needed refresh. Season three made its return with an entirely different pacing. While sustaining its trademark flair for drama and absurdity, it has smoothed out its once jagged time jumps and changes between genres. A far cry from season one, Ginny & Georgia can now confidently sit amongst its rivals as a show that is genuinely relatable and no longer tries to tick the box on every problematic issue that you can squeeze into a teen drama. So, if you were one of the many who gave up somewhere in the cringe depths of season one, season three might just be your reason to come back.

You've Finished 'Dept. Q' On Netflix, But Did You Know There's A 'Dept. Q' Film Series Too?
If you're finding that you have a Dept. Q-shaped whole in your life at the moment, then fear not — for there's plenty more where the Netflix adaptation came from (and no, a season two hasn't been confirmed yet). Dept. Q, which is based on the Jussi Adler-Olsen novel series, tells the story of Detective Morck in the wake of his attack being assigned to lead a newly-assembled cold case unit. With a Mötley Crüe of unlikely peers, Detective Morck is tasked with his unit's first investigation: the mysterious disappearance of prosecutor Merritt Lingard (Chloe Pirrie) several years earlier. FIND OUT MORE ON ELLE COLLECTIVE In case you've already binged the nine-episode series though, there is, in actual fact, another adaptation. A few years after the Adler-Olsen's first book was originally published in 2007, a Scandinavian film adaption was made of the novel, meaning there's another way to get your Dept. Q fix. Adler-Olsen published his first Dept. Q novel in 2007, and in the intervening years, he has published 10 more novels in the same cannon. The most recent novel in the series, Locked In, was published in 2021 and sees Detective Morck himself behind bars. Six years after the release of the first novel in the Department Q book series Mercy, a film adaptation was released in Denmark called The Keeper of Lost Causes. The film, which was released in 2013, stayed true to the plot of the book and Netflix series, starring Nikolaj Lie Kaas as Detective Morck, Fares Fares as Assad and Sonja Richter as Merritt Lingard. The following year, another film adaptation was released in Scandinavia. The Absent One, based on Adler-Olsen's novel of the same name, and followed Carl and Assad investigating the murder of a pair of twins whose death was meant to have been solved 20 years prior. Two years later, in 2016, another film adaptation was released. A Conspiracy of Faith explored the fall-out from what happens after an old message in a bottle turns up. And there was also a fourth film The Purity of Vengenace, too, which was released in 2018 and focused on what happened when the duo discovered three mummified bodies in an apartment. All of the Dept. Q film series are available to watch through ViaPlay on Prime Video. New users are eligible for a seven-day free trial of ViaPlay, which will then auto-renew for £4.99 a month if the subscription isn't cancelled. WATCH THE DEPT.
