After what seemed like an eternity of anticipation, I finally watched The September Issue.
I loved it even more than I thought I would.
My favourite player?
Grace Coddington.
She’s American Vogue editor Anna Wintour’s right hand woman. She is easily the world’s most influential fashion editor, famous for transforming photographic spreads into narratives, a signature she pioneered in the 1970s at British Vogue. Although other magazines have since adopted this style, Grace pulls it off with a witty, modern romanticism that makes readers feel they are flipping through a picture book instead of just looking at shots of models in pretty clothing.
I found myself absolutely in awe of the divine Ms. Coddington as I watched the film. Her passion and artistic integrity are truly an inspiration. Brilliant much?
Grace is absolutely fabulous.

Comment by Kristel January 18, 2010 @ 2:41 pmI watched The September Issue (finally) about a month ago and I agree! Grace was wonderful in it… I also felt really bad for her at points… I think I liked her artistic direction better than Wintour’s…
