Fashion’s Fat Fall Issues

29 Aug

In the world of fashion magazines, the September issue is the most anticipated copy of the year. Crammed with glossy editorials, beautiful images and Fall ad campaigns, these issues are the ‘bible’ of fashion for months to come and are often the biggest issues of the year.  U.S. Vogue produced it’s biggest issue ever this year with 916 pages, weighing in at nearly five pounds!!!!! Here is a roundup of this years major covers from around the globe.

On a budget?  Your local library carries many fashion magazines that are free to read.

Starting with my favorite triple cover….

Vogue Paris Cover(s) which feature Kate Moss, Lara stone and Daria Werbowy in the same black Dolce & Gabbana dress.

Where will You Be On Fashion’s Night out?

23 Aug

Fashion’s Night Out celebrates 4 years!!!!  This September 6th join editors, bloggers, stars, models and fashionistas at the worldwide fashion party known as fashion’s night out.  FNO is an unprecedented global initiative that was created in 2009 to celebrate fashion, restore consumer confidence, boost the industry’s economy during the recession, and put the fun back in shopping!  In the United States, the program is a collaboration between American Vogue, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, NYC & Company, and the City of New York.  With special limited-edition products, Sales, celebrity appearances, and unforgettable performances this FNO is going to be the best one yet!  Last years bash featured events in 18 countries with more than 4,500 events in the U.S. alone.  Some of the largest events will be taking place in NYC and LA.  NYC will be also kicking off New York Fashion Week on the 6th as well…..so if you’re in the New york area, take full advantage.  I will be celebrating in the Los Angeles/ Beverly Hills area  for my 4th year now. Last year I stopped by Marc Jacobs, Vera Wang and Alexander McQueen on Melrose in LA, then was off to Beverly Hills where the streets were literally shut down( complete with food trucks and a ferris wheel) and stopped by Saks, Valentino, Louis Vuitton and Chanel. I had the best time and am very excited to do it all over again!   Where will you be on September 6th?
