The World in Vogue

I absolutely love this book! Great photos, lots of good information, not too 'wordy' and just a nice tribute to the pages of Vogue. Perfect for the 'coffee table' because it's just as lovely sitting there as it is interesting to thumb through the beautiful pages.Very heavy book-so if you're planning to gift this to someone far away, I would recommend having this sent directly from Amazon as opposed to the gifter.

Love this book. A lovely copy that arrived in great time. So many interesting pages of extraordinary photography of fashionable celebrities and socialites to enjoy!

PURCHASED FOR A PRESENT. Well received.

アニーリーボヴィッをはじめ著名な女性写真家および、外、男性のフアションカメラマンの作品が各パートに収録されてvogueの往時を偲ぶことが楽しい。

INTERESTING BOOK or MAGAZINE if you care to explore another angle of this crazy 20, 21 CENTURY ... How the very wealthy passed the time, from party to party, in the company of "ninfettes" some with money,some without... The penniless "gigolos" -- always -- arm in arm with rich "doyennes" wrinkled to death, enjoying the last murmurs of their empty hearts. These people never knew another life. They were and are involved in their circles for ever. Revolving around them, we find the parasites: modistes, (HAUTE COUTURE), hairdressers (COIFFEURS), JEWELERS and their last creations, DERNIER CRI, AHHH! LA NOUVELLE VAGUE !!!! Always girating -- LIKE FLIES -- around the man and women of Society. I have to admit that they amuse me, that's the reason why I recommend this book. Important dresses, marvelous creations from the hands of poor modistes, perhaps working for pennies ... jewels, fancy cars, furs, parties, (how many parties?) NOUVELLE CUISINE...DIETICIANS, MASSEURS ... PETS WITH STRANGE NAMES ...DO I ENVY, THEM? YES, OF COURSE I DO, A LITTLE BIT (BUT NOT FOR LONG), then reality sinks in, and one more time, I return to my books and my writings. Margarita Sep 23, 2014.
