I think Paris Vogue is compelling because it's the only edition of Vogue that presents expensive fashion as something that could easily belong to your life - most magazines present expensive fashion as something that's 'look but don't touch' and certainly don't wear. But in Paris Vogue, you're presented with the idea that you could wear a £10,000 dress to put out your rubbish and in the process, artfully seduce your younger neighbour with your enigmatic stare and smoking technique, and it would all be part of living the life of a real woman.

The Paris Vogue woman doesn't wear high fashion in order to pose like a museum statue, she wears it to engage in activities that could leave wet patches on her couture, and she doesn't care about getting it to the dry cleaners the next day, because she's got better things to do.

Raquel looks great! thanks Diorette! but how ignorant is this editorial? basicly spitting in the face of animal rights activists who fight their hardest for the freedom and welfare of animals!

i love the idea of the b&w 'backstage' shots by the way. it made the 'reality show' thing more obvious yet much nicer. great ed.
