Vogue: The September Issue - Telegraph
Fashion is a kind of loveliness, let us wish that
Vogue: The September Issue
Alexander Chancellor gets his hands on the most important journal of the year - the September issue of Vogue.
I enjoyed David Jenkins' function on James Brett,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the eccentric founder of the Museum of Everything. I thought I might take some tips from Frances Bentley, Vogue's administrate editor, on how to feel better by meditating in a down-to-earth path. I was even very interested in a long silhouette of Giorgio Armanui,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the 76-year-old billionaire Italian fashion designer and businessman, who says he doesn't feel "remotely antique". That's for he's trendy and has to be. Trendiness is his commerce. But I feel a little bit extra in tune with variant 76-year-old, Jonathan Miller, who mentioned yesterday in one interview that he had stopped going to the theatre and now only wanted to stay at home and shop at Marks and Spencer.
The maximum quickly bold object about it is its opulence, sheet upon glossy sheet of advertisements for each priceless fashion house or jeweller you have ever heard of - so numerous that at fewest 100 pages work by ahead you arrive at the premier morsel of editorial duplicate.
Here we come to the crux of my problem. I do no ascertain mainstream and retail "hugely enjoyable". In truth, I many grudge shopping for clothes. I have no interest in trends or vibes, so always Vogue's advice aboard such matters is consumed above me. But I do confess that I rather like seeing at well-taken vogue photographs,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and I find the pictures of Kate Moss by Patrick Demarchelier in the September publish particularly mesmerising. Kate Moss is too the cover girl, wearing a short, blue, brass-buttoned Burberry coat and nothing else, since mainstream is immediately "all about the coat". This is Kate Moss's 30th Vogue cover, and her sixth for a September issue. I don't understand what it is approximately her that makes her so irreplaceable, but she certainly has some unique manner.

Then afresh, as a 70-year-old man with no interest in fashion who never buys a garment anywhere other than at Marks and Spencer, I am not exactly Vogue's target reader. But I checked out the UK's September issue to see what plea it might have for me. I fancied it might mow a dash in my learn, if nothing else, make a appropriate modern man of me.
But then, in her "Editor's Letter" promoting a Vogue-sponsored "celebration of fashion and shopping" in London afterward month, Alexandra Shulman writes: "The point of the event is not to encourage human to cost money [I will try to believe her] but to paint attention to the fact that fashion and retail are a hugely major and - let's not forget - enjoyable chapter of the country's economy".
Luxury can be particularly seductive in times like these, but Vogue, charmingly, has tried to show sensitivity to the country's penitential mood. The trend this annual is to be "minimal chic" - nothing idea, equitable plain, clean-cut raiment full of understated refinement. (Make a beeline because the A-line,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it advises, whatever that may mean.) There is a current savor for old-fashioned cosiness - sheepskin, log baskets,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], wooden basins,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and everything furry or quilted. I cast around my own family and feel suddenly, and pleasingly, in the swim.
Tumbling yesterday out of the dark clouds of recession, unemployment and austerity came that gleaming calendar of glamour and self-indulgence, the September Issue of Vogue. I got my hands on the most important issue of the year - the fattest, the most profitable, the most influential - two days before it arrived in newsagents. I do not know if I deserve the priviliege: to my shame, I had never heard of "The September Issue" until I saw last year's grasping membrane documentary of that appoint starring Anna Wintour for the despotic, blood-chilling redactor of American Vogue. Only then did I realise that the September issue - if in America, in Britain, or in any of the other privileged countries that have Vogues of their own - is the single most important reference book for anybody seeking to be in the swim. I find myself wondering how I have administered to exist without it.
