Fashion magazines are an essential component of the fashion industry. They are the medium that conveys and promotes the design’s vision to the eventual purchaser. Balancing the priorities has led to the diversity of the modern period market. The word vogue was originally a verb and came from Indo-European roots, meaning “to go”. Today vogue means “prevailing fashion” or “fashionable things”. Vogue magazine was founded by Arthur Baldwin Turnure and Harry McVickar in 1892. High fashion was reinterpreted for the American market when Vogue was taken over by Conde Nast Publications in 1909. Vogue coverage is global in the early 2000s, and foreign editions make their own assessments of the fashionable and the salable. Until his death in 1942, Conde Nast maintained meticulous control of the quality and service he believed he owed to his readers. Vogue archives provide insight into the management of quality fashion publication in a twentieth-century world. The contributors, editors, designers, photographers, and artists who have enriched the Vogue pages over the years add another essential layer of information. Anna Wintour became Editor in Chief of Vogue in 1988. She encouraged reporting on cultural and political issues to reflect the concerns of a modern working woman. Wintour also began Teen Vogue in 2001 and Men’s Vogue in 2005. |
