In March 2026, Law Roach styled a series of global covers for Elle Magazine featuring the women of The Odyssey: Charlize Theron, Lupita Nyong'o, Zendaya and Anne Hathaway. Shot by photographer Norman Jean Roy, the images served as the Summer 2026 covers for both Elle US and Elle UK. Each cover was themed around a different element (fire, wind, air, earth) and the shoot took place over the span of two days, in two different cities.
