The September Issue

The September issue of any fashion magazine is one we always buy. It comes out in August, is generally the biggest issue of the year (ad and content wise) and details all the trends for the coming season.

There are very few trends that should be worn head to toe (too fashion victim) so consider this post as a warm up for what’s new for Autumn/Winter 2011.

If you’re still not sure regarding the merits of the September issue of a fashion mag, watch the excellent documentary on the making of the September issue of Vogue 2009 featuring Her Majesty Anna Wintour and scene stealer Creative Director Grace Coddington.
