The September Issue

As Candy Pratts Price so succinctly said it in The September Issue, "September is the January in fashion." September is the when all the magic happens and the guidebook for the entire season is the September issue of Vogue. Halle Berry is the lucky cover girl and she and the interiors of her shoot by Mario Testino look amazing.  I can't wait to get a copy in my hot little hands!

The September Issue Part Deux

If you saw The September Issue then you will remember this photo shoot that Grace Coddington worked on with Patrick Demarchelier for Vogue. You might also remember Anna Wintour's comment about the photo above. Grace's reaction was what made me, and I bet many others, fall in love with her. I hope there are more great Grace moments on the DVD when it's released this Tuesday, February 23rd. It will include 90 minutes of unseen footage that I hear does include some classic Andre Leon Talley moments and if you order the DVD from Barnes & Noble, it also includes a third disk with exclusive coverage of the planning of The Met Costume Institute gala.

I have to admit that I didn't love The September Issue as much as other fashion documentaries such as Valentino: The Last Emperor, Lagerfeld Confidential and anything by Loïc Prigent, but it's still fun to peek into the fashion world's inner sanctum. Just remember to never look Anna directly in the eye!

The September Issue

I'm going to blog about Vogue all week! Just kidding! But I was talking to a friend earlier about the release of the documentary, The September Issue and came home to read on Fashion Week Daily that editor in chief Anna Wintour will host the premier on August 19th! I hope someone invites me...hint hint! If not, I will be first in line at the theatre on August 28th when it's released in Manhattan. Then I'm going to come home and do arm exercises with the actual September issue which should weigh about 5 pounds. It's the perfect complement to shopping which is my cardio!
