Entertainment, Fashion, Film → The September Issue
I finally had a chance to see The September Issue and I have to say, whether you are a die hard Fashionista or if you are just intrigued by the fashion industry, the documentary is definitely a must see! While the camera spends much of its attention on Anna Wintour, the Editor-in-Chief of Vogue magazine. It also features other decision makers in Vogue, designers, photographers and the many outfits of Andre Leon Talley.
R.J. Cutler does a wonderful job giving a closer look at the woman behind the shades and the things she oversees at Vogue, but it was more interesting to see just how much influence Anna Wintour and Vogue have on so many different aspects of the industry!!! Very very eye-opening.
One of my favourite things about The September Issue was the focus put on Grace Coddington. I have always enjoyed her work and she is truly a masterful stylist. Many argue that she is the true hero of The September Issue. She is amazing and there is no doubt about that. But for the most part, creativity can’t be appreciated unless it’s put in front of your face…in other words, it has to be marketed well. Vogue does just that, it takes the ingenuity that designers put forth and offers to the public in just the right way, in just the right doses.
