Vogue Magazine


Vogue is a USA magazine covering Fashion.

Vogue is a fashion and lifestyle magazine published in the United States and twenty other countries, including Britain, China, France, India and Japan. The magazine was founded as a weekly publication by Arthur Baldwin Turnure in 1892. After Condé Nast acquired the magazine in 1909, Vogue switched from weekly to biweekly publication. He then began international publication of the magazine, first in Britian.

With Diana Vreeland as editor-in-chief in the 1960's, Vogue turned its focus to youth and the sexual revolution, focusing on contemporary fashion and sexuality. Vogue became a monthly publication in 1973. Anna Wintour became editor-in-chief of American Vogue in 1988, and is regarded as a force in the fashion business. She was portrayed by Meryl Streep in the movie "The Devil Wears Prada."

This magazine is owned by Conde Nast Publications.

The web site is presented in the English language.

60 Minutes will offer a look inside the world of Anna Wintour, Vogue's top editor, the New York Daily News reported on May 14, 2009:

"Welcome to Anna Wintour's world.

In a rare sitdown interview with "60 Minutes" correspondent Morley Safer, the Vogue editor and queen of haute couture dishes on everything from why she wears her signature dark sunglasses to Vogue's editorial adjustments during the recession.

Wintour – who has been at Vogue's helm for more than 20 years – told Safer the oversized shades have become her "armor" and are much more than a fashion accessory.

"They're seriously useful. I can sit at a show and if I'm bored out of my mind, nobody will notice and if I'm enjoying it nobody will notice," she says in a video clip posted on the CBSNews.com.

"I think at this point they've become really armor." Safer's team trailed Wintour, 59, for months through fashions shows in New York, Paris and Milan and sat in on editorial meetings at the magazine.

She's decisive, sometimes curt, and appears to have a hand in every part of the magazine’s production – just like the lead character she inspired for the popular novel "The Devil Wears Prada," brought to life on the big screen by actress Meryl Streep."

The airs on CBS on Sunday, May 17.

Alexandra Kotur is the viscountess of Vogue, Irina Aleksander of the New York Observer wrote on April 28, 2009:

"If Vogue is the high temple of fashion—its foundation somewhat cracked by its cheesy portrayal in The Devil Wears Prada and a nasty takedown by The Times’ Cathy Horyn—Ms. Kotur, 39, is its chief abbess. At a moment of confusion for fashion, when the landscape is littered with cheap reality shows and stylists run amok, she offers a refreshing constancy; a sense of standards upheld. Every day she boards the elevator at 4 Times Square, in an impeccably ironed white blouse, dark slacks, flats and no makeup, a thoughtful little smile on her pale face, her coif parted precisely down the middle and neatly pulled back. She glides rather than walks (according to colleagues, she has a medical condition that affects her gait, though she declined to discuss this with The Observer), and she speaks in quiet yet declarative sentences.

Ms. Kotur has been at Vogue for 13 years, rising from assistant to associate editor to senior editor–special projects—“which basically just meant that I do a lot of things,” she said—to her present appointment, in 2006. In addition to editing the magazine’s front-of-the-book section—including the columns of editor at large André Leon Talley and society writer William Norwich as well as pages like It Girl and Overheard—she is responsible for overseeing much of the magazine’s portrait photography: conceptualizing how first ladies and socialites should look in the magazine."
