Rita Ora Unveils New Era for Cosmopolitan Espana

Rita Ora unveils her new creative era on the cover of Cosmopolitan Espana, September 2025—a bold and confident exploration of style and self.

A magazine cover is no longer just a portrait. It is a manifesto. And when Rita Ora graces the cover of Cosmopolitan España this September, she is not just presenting a new look, but an entire new era. An era, she tells the magazine, that is “very well organized,” because for a woman who has worn so many stylistic hats, a little structure is in order, non?

Her main feature outfits are a study in contrasts, a sartorial reflection of her own eclectic sensibility. On the cover, a beautifully crafted crocheted halter top, its intricate, hand-woven lace a nod to the artisanal. Paired with a skirt that reveals with a playful, yet sophisticated, transparency, it’s a look that feels both bohemian and deeply modern. It speaks to her comfort in her own skin, a theme she echoes in the interview, admitting she simply adores the interaction between body, music, and the freedom of life.

Inside, she debuts a fringed dress from Antik Batik, cinched at the waist with a suede belt. The dress is a cascade of motion, feathers, and textures—a look that feels like it’s shimmering with the memory of a summer festival. This is the woman who loves a good blazer, who adores a white shirt and jeans, who says her style is “very eclectic” and never static. She pulls it all together with bold, statement earrings and makeup by Dior, her Christian Louboutin footwear adding a final, high-octane flourish.

But the real story here is not just in the fabric and the fringe, but in the woman behind them. She’s an artist who, as she puts it, “never stops dreaming,” and a woman deeply involved in her work as a UNICEF ambassador. She speaks of her new album Heat, collaborating with her partner Taika Waititi on the music video, and her deeply personal journey from being a refugee. This editorial offers a powerful glimpse into her world, and a perfect example of how celebrity fashion has evolved from simple clothing to a tool for storytelling.

So, is she simply a musician who loves fashion, or is she using her style to tell the world, and all its complexities, exactly who she is?
