British Vogue Turns 90

Happy Birthday Vogue UK. The magazine turns 90 this month and to celebrate the editor-in-chief Alexandra Shulman decided to put together a cover retrospective for their anniversary issue. Vogue.co.uk describes it as "90 covers reproduced on a four-page, gatefold cutout-and-keep cover that itself is an illustration of the history of the world's most fashionable magazine." I am thinking this is a definite collector's item.

Anyone interested in the publishing side of the magazine should take a look at this video clip , where Robin Derrick, creative director of British Vogue, explains the process behind the anniversary issue's cover and talks about his favorite Vogue covers.
