From Vogue's Archives

A few days ago I was browsing Vogue's web page and came across their cover archive section where I found some beautiful cover art. And because I couldn't keep these amazing covers to myself, I made this post consisting of my favourite ones. It will come as no surprise that the covers I like the most are the earliest ones since you all know I have a thing for old looking things. For everything that screams history actually.

Anyway, without further introduction, here are my favourite Vogue covers of all time:

November 1919. I particularly like the early covers for their beautiful and elegant illustrations.

November 1920

March 1929

April 1930

June 1934. One of the very first photographs used for a magazine cover. The first ever photographic Vogue cover appeared in 1932.

August 1938. This is the most beautiful Vogue cover ever in my opinion. The model, the clothes, her pose, the covers's glamorous and sophisticated touches...it's really amazing.

August 1942

November 1949

March 1962

June 1962.  Jean Shrimpton (a famous English model of the time with numerous Vogue covers) appears on the cover for the first time.

March 1964

October 1969

May 1975

April 1983

November 1991

June 1998. No Vogue cover archive could be complete without Kate Moss. I think she looks so fresh and beautiful in this photo.

June 2006. Kate did so many Vogue covers that it was impossible for me not to choose another photo of her. This is my favourite cover from Vogue's more recent cover archive.


Do you have any favourite covers from the above ones? If you liked this post and you are interested in discovering even more covers, enter Vogue's web page and browse all you like through their archive.

Vogue stikes again

A  few days ago I came across this dreamy Vogue editorial which featured the wonderful Kate Moss and I  was instantly mesmerised. The glamorous photo shoot took place at The Ritz in Paris, where Kate modelled some haute couture pieces by Alexander McQueen, Dior, Valentino and Giambattista Valli. The result is absolutely breathtaking, with Kate Moss looking like a modern Marie Antoinette. I've told you before I'm obsessed with Marie Antoinette and 18th century France and this fact probably made me love the photos even more. Not to mention the gorgeous rooms from The Ritz which look exactly like the royal apartments from Versailles or from any other equally wonderful chateau.

I know that these pictures are all over the Internet and everybody is talking about them, but I liked them so much that it was impossible for me not to dedicate them a post. Feast your eyes, ladies!









What do your think about this editorial? Which are your favourite photos? Mine are the first two...the bed from the first photo and the dining room from the second one are absolutely fabulous, aren't they? (I never thought that a hotel could be this amazing)

Take care x
