Model Bette Franke is ready to own the festive season, and photographer Andreas Ortner captures every sparkling second. On the cover of ELLE Germany, December 2025, Bette stuns in a dreamy ruffled Dior Haute Couture gown paired with a Dior High Jewelry necklace. It’s high holiday glam with a couture twist.

Inside, things get even more festive. Stylist Pia Leonie Knoll leans into opulence with tuxedo tailoring, oversized bows, and jaw-dropping jewels. Bette wears deep violet, icy silver, and golden camel tones with confidence, flipping between power-suited siren and wrapped-in-tulle goddess.

The accessories? There are brooches, chandelier necklaces, and ruby cocktail rings. Hairstylist Oliver Lebrun gives us slick holiday sophistication with a tight, twisted bun, while makeup artist Thomas Lorenz keeps the skin fresh, flushed, and glowing. RCP Berlin pulls it all together with sleek production.
