Happy Birthday, ELLE DECOR!

35 YEARS OF ELLE DECOR • It all started here. Our debut cover (right) in 1989 featured Poltrona Frau’s Vanity Fair chair in red leather, setting the tone for bold, playful stories about decorating’s present and future. This year, we teamed up with the Italian brand to give its iconic chair an anniversary update. Join us as we look at our 10 biggest takeaways from 35 years of loving design.
