In Vogue is a fascinating look at the history of the world's most
influential magazine. The complete compendium is illustrated with
hundreds of covers and archival interiors of past Vogue editions,
featuring the work of some of the twentieth century's most
respected artists, cover illustrators, and photographers-from
Edward Steichen, Toni Frissell, and Erwin Blumenfeld to Irving
Penn, Richard Avedon, David Bailey, Helmut Newton, Annie Leibovitz,
Mario Testino, Steven Klein, Bruce Webber, and Herb Ritts. In 1909,
an entrepreneurial New Yorker named Conde Nast took charge of a
struggling society journal and transformed it into the most
glamorous fashion magazine of the twentieth century. In Vogue
traces the history, development and influence of this media
colossus-from its beginning as a social gazette in the late
nineteenth century, to the exploration of modern fashion
photography and new visuals in the mid-twentieth century, to its
status as the top style magazine today. The book explains the
makings of the magazine-from runways, to editorial meetings, to the
pages of Vogue.The thoroughly researched story incorporates
first-person accounts, interviews with editors and photographers,
and excerpts from stories written in the magazine by many
world-renowned writers, including Truman Capote, Aldous Huxley,
Richard Burton, Federico Fellini, and Marcello Mastroianni.
Unparalleled in its scope and exceptionally illustrated, In Vogue
is sure to be among the most important publications on the subjects
of culture, art, fashion, photography, and media.
