What would you wear ... if you worked at Vogue

shannyD · 15-07-2006

If you worked at Vogue (or any other fashion magazine) what would you wear at the office?

* Also: what would be your dream job at a fashion magazine?

Diorling · 15-07-2006

ShannyD, I WAS JUST THINKING THIS. I was watching The Devil Wears Prada and figureing out little outfits in my head if I were an editor there...

So many, so many, so many...Let me gather my thoughts...

I would buy a few great designer pieces and combine them with H&M basics and vintage stuff.
I'm thinking a good versatile suit (like this Roland Mouret for spring 2006) the jacket could be worn with a other skirt/jeans/trousers) and the high waisted skirt can be worn with sweater/top and a belt around the waist.

i'd take advantage of the clothing allowance...

my dream job for a fashion magazine would be a photo editor or art director

what you would wear would necessarily depend on the position you held...

i'd love to see more of this...

Spike413 · 17-07-2006

I'd wear lots of Ozwald Boateng, McQueen and Dolce and Gabbana suits, but dressed down a bit with pieces like lightweaight cashmere sweaters, Chelsea boots, leather jackets.....Obviously I'd wear a lot of black, but I'd mix in some colors like crimson red, chocolate brown and olive green, midnight blue, greys, berries, plum....just to keep it interesting.

Something like this for more casual days (sans cravat)

This suit with a chocolate brown cashmere crewneck and beat up motorcycle jacket

Add a matching blazer and subtract the hood

I'd wear this as is

You kinda get the idea, maybe tommorow I'll make an outfit. As for what I'd do, I think I'd want to do something like styling or art direction for photoshoots. Either that or work as an editor at large, I'd love to cover the shows.

voodoo_mary · 17-07-2006

i would dress in a way which shows off my personality and always work some vintage piece into the outfit (could be an accessory or a dress). i dont necessarily have to be togged out in some obscure designer's clothes. infact, i probably wouldnt want to align myself with any one designer. there will certainly be alot of mixing.
softgrey - u are right, it depends on the role u play.
i dont see myself playing an artistic role in vogue. i'm more of a suit that dresses like an anti-suit. does that make any sense?

Diorling · 18-07-2006

Editor at large because Im so tired of Andre Leon Talley (god, his name is such a pretentious mouthful)

Definately something Id wear to work, the sheer trench over a white suit w/ brown burnished slipons

Trotting off to the tents at Bryant Park or the Paris Polo club

men.style

I could fine more but Im not in the mood...Meh...

damnalky · 18-07-2006

i'd be really honored to work as an art director for a fashion magazine.

i love great pieces i really do. but i need to be comfortable when i'm working. so i'm all about cigarette trousers, converse and a loose fitting sweatshirt.

Pastry · 18-07-2006

as i would probably be running around...i'd always wear a sheer t-shirt over something decorative over black (well-pressed) ankle-length pants that i'd alternate with leather slippers, dress shoes, or boots.

i'd also have a jacket sitting in a cupbord for sudden special occasions..

anad to make life more fun, i'd wear socks in colours like light blue, purple, ochre, etc..

calexico · 19-07-2006

great thread shannyd...
something to run around in...
always very simple, with a strong silhoutte and nice lines...

something like this?

kanita · 19-07-2006

Remember SatC, what Carrie wore on the first day she worked at Vogue, the lovely Vivienne Westwood........
