Anna Wintour Doesn’t Really Care That You’re Broke

What else has greeted me this weekend but the September issue of Vogue. I had thankfully seen a preview of the awful cover, so I was not as alarmed when I saw Kiera Knightly, her matted hair and her never ending torso on the cover. But I am not here to bag on the Kiera Knightly cover, even though the cover image has nothing to do with the 1920’s glamour look she has in the editorial. No. Instead I would like to bring your attention to a quote from Anna Wintour’s letter from the editor. I will bring it to your attention because I doubt you will find it in the 658 pages of ads that are wedged in between every page of real content.
“In putting together these stories, we were always conscious that fashion may not be, in this period of economic and political uncertainty, at the forefront of our readers’ minds. We’ve tried, therefore, to edit the collection with value for money in mind-”
Yes that’s why this issue is jammed with J. Mendel $4,500 dollar dresses, Zac Posen couture gowns, and a boat painted by Jeff Koons for some crazy rich guy!
All I have to say is: Get over yourself Anna Wintour! It’s fashion. You’re not curing anything!
