We couldn't be prouder of the response we received to our December 2014 Feminism Issue - and now we've received a nod of approval from the industry, too.

Our cover, starring the 'fresh face of feminism' Emma Watson, has been nominated for a prestigious PPA Award.

Emma wears leading designer Stella McCartney in the cover image, taken at a shoot produced by an entirely female team: photographer Kerry Hallihan, ELLE fashion director Anne-Marie Curtis, make-up artist Dotti, hair stylist Vi Sapyyapy and nail artist Emma Welsh.

We're confident she can scoop it for us, but here's the kicker - we need your help to make it happen.

The cover that will emerge triumphant is decided by public vote.

So if you loved the issue, or are simply looking at this story thinking 'wow', head over to the PPA website and cast a vote for ELLE - and Emma - now. And set an alert for tomorrow, too. You get a fresh vote to use every day.

Thank you in advance - from all of us...
