Thursday night is movie night in Paris for me and Caroline! We've gone to a movie each thursday night since we've been here, so the tradition continued this week with "The September Issue"
If you don't know - this is a documentary about the making of the September Issue of Vogue Magzine. September is like January in the fashion world, the new beginning, the start of the year. The September Issue of Vogue is nearly 1000 pages of the most important looks, designers, and trends of the year. Vogue is run by the amazing, "ice queen" Anna Wintour - and the doctumentary offers an inside look into her life - much more real than the depiction in "The Devil Wears Prada." Now, I knew going into it that it was going to be good, but it was amazing. I was completely fascinated from start to fin. Her power and influence over every aspect of the fashion world is remarkable.
I read a biography (unauthorized) about her life in high school, and her rise to power as editor-in-chief of the Bible of fashion. The September Issue shows you first hand her expertise and personality - showing that all the rumors are true - and fabulous. She is fabulous. There's no other word. Not only did the doctumentary leave you thirsting for fashion and dying to shop, but it was truly an indepth look about how the magazine comes together, and it is fascinating. It reminded me how much I love fashion, and how badly I want to work in it. Yes - I actually want to work someday.
Aside from the indepth look into the workings of Vogue, there are magnifique shots of Paris and New York! What could be better! New York, Paris, Vogue, and couture! It may well be the best doctumentary ever made!
