Elle Décor is an interior design and lifestyle magazine under the Elle brand family, owned by Lagardère Group. While the publication itself centers on home design and décor, its licensing structure ties it financially to the broader Elle brand ecosystem. The Elle name has direct licensing partnerships with Delta Galil Industries, an Israeli textile manufacturer operating production facilities in illegal West Bank settlements. These settlements violate international law, reinforcing apartheid, forced displacement, and systemic occupation.
By sourcing from Delta Galil, Elle is financially entangled in the economics of occupation. Production capacity built on stolen Palestinian land, combined with labor under military rule, embeds human rights violations directly into the supply chain. Despite years of evidence and advocacy, neither Elle nor its parent company Lagardère have taken steps to end these ties.
Boycotting Elle and Lagardère Group has a High Impact because Delta-linked brands provide ongoing economic lifelines to illegal settlements. Cutting support disrupts one of the commercial engines of apartheid and places pressure on both Western corporations and their Israeli suppliers to withdraw from occupied territories.
