Vogue magazine is, for me, a crowning glory of British fashion and a celebration of all the hard work and creativity that goes into producing and promoting the hottest and latest new looks, as well as championing British fashion players, honouring timeless style and where politics, current events, economic and social issues all come together in contribution as to how we choose to present ourselves and the clothes we covet and admire.
With the steadily growing rise of street style, bloggers and vloggers, instagram stars, indie underground everyday people leading the trends, main stream media such as Vogue magazine look beyond the elite for creative inspiration. Also in a time of political uncertainty many outside elements effect this fast paced industry and we begin to see the tides of tradition turning, finally, as a more diverse and beautiful range of faces, body types and characters grace the pages of this treasured fashion archive. Which brings me perfectly to this exciting new chapter at the heart of the magazine.
"#NewVogue celebrates Great Britain above all else; the talented, diverse creatives who brilliantly represent it, both at home and on the world stage."
Friday 10th November sees the most anticipated issue of British Vogue hit the stands- the first edition with new editor-in-chief Edward Enninful behind the wheel. What better way to begin his reign that to invite the stunning Adwoa Aboah as December cover girl, photographed by Steven Meisel and styled by the boss himself.
This is an exciting time for the magazine and can only lead to further exploration of diverse beauty and to move forward in our search and enjoyment of boundary pushing fashion. In honour of applauding outstanding style I've dipped into the Vogue archives and selected some of my favourite and most legendary covers ranging from 2017 right back to 1917. Please take a moment to enjoy!
