No picture unfortunately but I bought it this morning! It's a STONKINGLY good issue....and I haven't said that about UK Vogue for a while. Quite rightly so since it's celebrating 90 yrs of British Vogue. The cover is basically 100's of all the past UK Vogue covers tiled into one image. Not particularly imaginative but I'm glad Alexandra Shulman didn't pick one girl to be on the cover for this issue as that would have been impossible.
 
I saw this cover at the vogue.co.uk site earlier this morning... I'm presuming this isn't the real thing, that it's some 'draft' version of the final product. Well, I'm hoping it isn't!

Nice Kate editorial, obe question this 2 are by Mario Testino??
 
The cover doesn't look very great but OK, it's 90th anniversary and the cover is suitable for it. What a memorable issue!
BTW, is there no Karen? :(
 
^I look forward to buying this landmark issue! Thanks so much for this info!:flower:
 
Jodie Kidd twice...it was a long time since I hadn't seen her.
looks very intresting. def. a must buy!
a 10p. of all time best dressed
@Ieva kate is not on the cover, but inside

Kate is the only one who has two reprints of cov' collection! but Linda appears twice, too (but one on a trio cover)
 
After all the bad issues Vogue UK has had for some time now, I am looking forward to this. Not saying anything yet, but let's just say I am very, very curious.

Thanks for bringing this in, Susie :flower:
 
Look forward to picking this up tomorrow morning, and seeing yet another Nick Knight Editorial, he seems to have been doing quite a lot for uk vogue over the last few months
