Fashionable History: The Illustrated Story of Vogue
In Vogue: A Captivating Journey Through the History of the World's Most Influential Magazine
In Vogue is a captivating exploration of the history of the world's most influential fashion magazine. The comprehensive volume is illustrated with hundreds of covers and archival interiors from past Vogue editions, showcasing the work of some of the most respected artists, cover illustrators, and photographers of the twentieth century, including Edward Steichen, Toni Frissell, Erwin Blumenfeld, Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, David Bailey, Helmut Newton, Annie Leibovitz, Mario Testino, Steven Klein, Bruce Webber, and Herb Ritts.
The story of Vogue's transformation from a struggling social gazette in the late nineteenth century to the most glamorous fashion magazine of the twentieth century is meticulously chronicled. In 1909, an entrepreneurial New Yorker named Condé Nast took charge of the publication and set it on a trajectory that would see it become a media colossus, pioneering the exploration of modern fashion photography and introducing new visual aesthetics in the mid-twentieth century, ultimately securing its status as the top style magazine of today.
The thoroughly researched narrative incorporates first-hand accounts, interviews with editors and photographers, and excerpts from stories written for the magazine by renowned writers such as Truman Capote, Aldous Huxley, Richard Burton, Federico Fellini, and Marcello Mastroianni. The book delves into the behind-the-scenes workings of the magazine, from the runways to the editorial meetings, to the iconic pages of Vogue itself.
Unparalleled in its scope and exceptionally illustrated, In Vogue is poised to become one of the most significant publications on the subjects of culture, art, fashion, photography, and media. The book offers readers a captivating, in-depth exploration of the evolution and influence of this iconic publication, providing a unique glimpse into the world of high fashion and the remarkable individuals who have shaped it over the decades.
