More copies of this ISBN:In Vogue: The Illustrated History of the World's Most Famous Fashion Magazineby Norberto Angeletti
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The history of Vogue - from its inception in America more than 100 years ago to its iconic status today - recounted by its world-famous fashion editors and renowned art directors. IN VOGUE is illustrated with hundreds of covers and archived fashion illustrations of past editions - the work of artists, cover illustrators, and photographers including Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, David Bailey, Helmut Newton, Annie Leibovitz, Mario Testino, and Herb Ritts. 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. Review:"From the illustrated covers of Vogue's founding in 1892 to the advent of color photography in the 1930s and today's postmodern world, this thick volume is as elegant and engrossing as the magazine. An essay by Susan Sontag on the social implications of fashion photography enhances profiles of Irving Penn, Helmut Newton, Annie Leibowitz and other image-makers, along with the models, athletes and powerful women who have graced the magazine's pages. Behind-the- scenes anecdotes and proofs that did — and didn't — make the cut offer an intimate look at how the magazine assembles its public face. (Sept. 22)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.) Book News Annotation:All the fun, romance, celebrity, and outrageousness of Vogue can be
