Book Reviews of Vogue Women
Book Review: okay
Summary: 3 Stars
although this book was at times, nice to look at and read, they have appeared to leave out a lot of people. some of the pictures are good, good enough to be called photographs, they seemed to gloss over each and it left out some sort of magic. i guess by normal standards the book is okay, but you may be looking into the beauty and not the presense. i suggest you check out scavullo photographs 50 years.
Summary of Vogue Women
Since 1916, Vogue has defined the essence of glamour and style. Distinguished, notorious, beautiful, sexy or striking, the singular women featured throughout the twentieth century in Vogue's glossy pages set exceptional standards of taste and fashion. In ten inspiring essays on themes such as Royals, Muses, Models, Stars, and Society Girls, the significant influences of many remarkable women are charted, and pertinent questions regarding beauty and the female form are considered. With expert analysis the author explores the contrasting representations of women from the exotic black dancer Josephine Baker in the 1920s to the quintessential English rose epitomized by Diana Cooper in wartime Britain, and from the curvaceous Marilyn Monroe in Hollywood to contemporary but controversial waifs like Kate Moss. The changing trends, from self made notoriety in the days before 'media' through to the impact of the supermodels Cindy, Linda, and Naomi - with their own retinue of brat-pack image makers - are each explored. With a selection of over 120 of the finest photographic images taken from the unique archives at Vogue, Vogue Women is a dazzling tour through the history of Vogue magazine and the history of fashion and beauty culture.Fashion Books
