Vogue is one of the most famous and known magazines in the entire world. Its current editor-in-chief is Anna Wintour, a British-American journalist. Vogue is a fashion and lifestyle magazine covering many topics including fashion, beauty, culture, living, and runway. Vogue began as a weekly newspaper in 1892 in the United States, before becoming a monthly publication years later.
“The foundation of Vogue’s leadership and authority is the brand’s unique role as a cultural barometer for a global audience. Vogue places fashion in the context of culture and the world we live in—how we dress, live and socialize; what we eat, listen to and watch; who leads and inspires us. Vogue immerses itself in fashion, always leading readers to what will happen next. Thought-provoking, relevant and always influential, VOGUE DEFINES THE CULTURE OF FASHION.”
The British Vogue was the first international edition launched in 1916, while the Italian version Vogue Italia has been called the top fashion magazine in the world. As of today, there are 23 international editions.

“Create your own style… let it be unique for yourself and yet identifiable for others.” ― Anna Wintour
Vogue has been around for 130 years as of December 2013, with no sign of slowing down. What began as an upscale weekly journal that aimed to appeal to only high society women and gentlemen, has become an exclusive women’s fashion magazine that is published in over 23 countries and serves as a “cornerstone of fashion and culture for its millions of devoted readers.” Since taking over in 1988, editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour has worked hard in protecting the magazine’s status and reputation among fashion publications. To do this, she has focused on new and more accessible ideas of fashion that apply to a wider audi- ence. This has allowed Wintour to keep circulation high while discovering new trends that anyone could conceivably afford. (“Fashion model directory”, 2013). Vogue has became the champion of women’s fashion publications because of its effective printed covers and dedication to its audience. By using consistency, it appeals to a wide demographic that spreads to all the corners of the world.
