內容簡介
內容簡介 英國Vogue總編紀念雜誌100周年所寫下的日記,以及BBC電視台《絕對時尚》紀錄片的幕後真實故事。對Vogue來說,這真是好樣的一年!在這本日記裡,英國Vogue總編Alexandra Shulman告訴世人,為了Vogue 100周年所做的各種工作:以劍橋公爵夫人凱特王妃為封面的紀念期刊,準備眾星雲集的百周年晚宴,以及與各大設計師,如:維多利亞貝克漢、Karl Lagerfeld,還有Vogue攝影師David Bailey以及時尚名媛兼設計師Alexa Chung等人共事的經歷。所有這些百周年活動,都在BBC電視台紀錄片團隊如影隨形的檢視下完成。除了公事,家事的麻煩也不少。米蘭時尚周的時候,遠在倫敦的家,竟也出了一堆亂七八糟的事:廚房自己燒了起來、陰晴不定的鍋爐、還有得在千里之外,提醒家人什麼時候該倒垃圾。想知道時尚編輯或熱愛工作的婦女過得是什麼樣的日子嗎?這是一本對英國時尚圈豐富、誠實且敏銳觀察的一年。Editor in chief Alexandra Shulman kept a diary of Vogue's centenary year. And what an emotional and logistical minefield of a year: producing the 100th anniversary issue (that Duchess of Cambridge cover surprise), organizing the star-studded Vogue 100 Gala, working with designers such as Victoria Beckham and Karl Lagerfeld and contributors such as David Bailey and Alexa Chung while under the constant scrutiny of a TV documentary crew.But narrowly contained domestic chaos hovers - spontaneous combustion in the kitchen, and who will remember to put the bins out during Milan fashion week? A rich, personal, honest and sharply observed account of life lived at the centre of British fashion and cultural life.
