For those of you who grew up devouring your mother's Vogue Magazine, this is a must see. Perhaps you have spent countless hours, as I have, going page by page through The Bible with your sister, friends, daughters, imagining that some day you would be able to actually be able to afford that fantastic Valentino suit, or Lacroix dress. Forget it - it isn't going to happen in this lifetime. All the thrift store rummaging and making over your grandmother's suits just isn't going to cut it in this rarified world. My friend, who is an architect, saw the docu-drama with me. She said that putting the Sept. issue together was not unlike building a house, where there are disagreements, clients and prima donnas to placate.
There was a time when stars were stars, based on their beauty and acting ability. Take this legend of the silver screen, Julie Christie. A very classy act. 68 years old!!!! Tell us Julie, what is your secret you look mahvelous!


Now who do we have to look up to as our fashion icons. Madonna, looking like she just left a garage sale on the West Side? Little Kim, complete with holster and Cranshaw melons in her bra? There's got to be a happy medium somewhere. "The September Issue" won't give you all of the answers, but at least it will give you a hint at how our small minds are manipulated into thinking that pink goes with red.
