My hubby came in last night from the mailbox and laid it on the kitchen counter(*_*)...The mother of all September issues; the "Queen-Vee" of all fashion mags; The September Issue>>of Vogue Magazine.! I've been waiting for this issue all year! I tweeted a few weeks ago of my excitement for the uber-beautiful Halle Berry making the cover. Alas, it's here! All 726 pages of fashion elation!!!! For those that don't know the significance of the September issue, let alone the historic meaning of THIS issue, let me break it down...
You may, or may not have noticed the most important fashion mags> ELLE, Cosmo, InStyle, etc., are all extra thick this time of year. However, none are as respected as the one that started it all>Vogue! Heck they made a movie documenting the drama behind this proverbial issue titled The September Issue. September marks the start of fall fashion and the showcasing of the upcoming spring collections. It's the time for new. It's like the New Years for the fashion industry. The September issue introduces Fashion Week and forecasts all that's to come for fall; PERIOD!
This issue of Vogue, featuring Ms. Berry, is only the second time a Black woman made cover at this time of year(the first was Naomi Campbell). And it's also special to note that Halle is not in the fashion industry; she may be a fashion-icon(on the red-carpet), but totally out of the box for Vogue's September Issue!!! I love it and I love her as well!!! If you are not a subscriber to Vogue, (and you call yourself a fashionista *_*smh) you must run out and pick up this issue!
