Anna Comes Out From Behind Her Sunglasses

There is a new documentary coming out this Friday about Anna Wintour and the making of Vogue's September issue. While to many the world of fashion is superficial and a symbol of all that is unduly self-important (and maybe it is) I love fashion and the culture of Style.

The visual recontextualization of our world they create in Vogue Magazine is full of a fantasy and glamour that is always transporting and sometimes quite provocative. I could spend all day just going through my old issues of Vogue and be completely happy...and maybe, it's true, feeling a little unglamorous. But who cares?!! It IS only fashion after-all and can only add or take away from us what we let it.

Anna, the reining queen of the fashion world, who once again is someone we rarely get access to, has finally decided to let us into her world. I'm very excited to see how the bitches of fashion claw over each other to make one of my favorite magazines.
