Chanel Iman has her first solo cover. After all the buzzshe recieved from Vogue Italia, she lands on the cover of Vogue Korea. Seems like this issue is following in the footsteps of Franca Sozzani's July issue,"A Black Issue." Chanel looks great here and the timing is perfect for New York Fashion Week.
Franca Sozzani is like the younger, rebellious sister of her counterparts, Anna Wintour and Carine Roitfeld. She has an artistic eye with a strong sense of style that works well together. Since 1988, Franca has been the editor of Vogue Italia presenting an image that is truly innovative. Being creative and having a definite point of view is important in being an editor but another key component is vision. Franca has proven that she has vision over the years especially with her timely July issue of Vogue Italia,"A Black Issue." That issue garnered so much attention that it brought her to the forefront of her Vogue sisters. Being a creative vision is in the genes, here sister, Carla Sozzani is the owner of 10 Corso Como, a boutique in Milan that mixes fashion with art. Franca is the perfect blend of Anna and Carine and that's reason enough to be a be a fan.
Anna, Anna, Anna... the style, the grace and the know-how behind the hugely successful Vogue. Believe it or not she dropped out of school at the age of 16 to pursue a career in fashion journalism. She became Vogue's editor in 1988 at a time when the publication was failing. Since then, she has made it into the most successful fashion magazines of its time. With her signature style and success, she has proven why she is the Queen of fashion.
OK, so many people have been commenting on Keira Knightley's hair on the recent cover of American Vogue. The apparent answer to the hair mishap is everyone's friend and foe, photoshop. Here's an image from the photo shoot with Mario Testino before it landed on the cover and of course before it was photoshopped. Besides it is the actual cover and below is what their inspiration was for the photo shoot. Here's the video of Keira's experience shooting with Mario Testino for American Vogue.
France...Paris...Carine Roitfeld, the exquisite and sensual editor of French Vogue. She has her own style that always makes her stand out. And, she's not afraid to smile. She's worked with a variety of designers as their "muse" including among them, Tom Ford, when he was designing for Gucci. She has a definitive point of view that consistently comes across the pages of French Vogue. Carine Roitfeld has been at the helm for the past seven years and has made it as recognizable as its American counterpart. We are definitely a fan.
