When I was in high school, I made wallpaper from the fashion pages of Vogue for the Schiap-pink room I kept in my grandmother's house. In the early sixties, Vogue came out twice a month. I was so naive, I didn't think I could subscribe to the magazine, but in any case, every other Sunday after church, I enjoyed walking to the newsstand on the Duke University campus with my allowance to buy it. I would come home, tear out my favorite images, and pin-tack them to the walls. This was not my bedroom but a sanctuary, with a beautiful mahogany desk and modern sofa, that my grandmother had created for me—a place where I could read, listen to records, and escape to my own world. That world was papered with images from Vogue.
One Sunday, on my way to East Campus, a group of white male students sped by, throwing rocks at me from the car. I kept walking—and it never stopped me from taking that walk to buyVogue twice a month

Vogue Takes Us Inside Rag & Bone Headquarters

Designers Marcus Wainwright and David Neville at their desks in the office that they share.


Designers Marcus Wainwright and David Neville moved into this space five years ago, bringing their matching black-lacquered desks from their first studio on West Fortieth Street with them (the two have shared an office since 2006). Memorabilia lives everywhere: a basketball signed by Carmelo Anthony during last year’s Fashion’s Night Out, a letterRalph Lauren wrote to the team when they won the CFDA Menswear Designer of the Year award in 2010, and a small canvas tote bag that Wainwright made in 2002.

Sarah Jessica Parker To Play 'Vogue' Editor on 'Glee
BY PETER FROST
Picking up where Carrie Bradshaw left off, Sarah Jessica Parker is set to play an editor of Vogue during her stint guest-starring on Glee this fall. Her character’s role, which seems to be a mentor to Chris Colfer’s character after his move to NYC, Glee showrunner Ryan Murphy revealed to Access Hollywood that SJP will be “running Vogue.com”.
However, not only will she be working at the hallowed halls of the magazine on the show, Vogue's real life EIC Anna Wintour is also set to help with the costuming of her character on the show. Murphy took to Twitter to announce the news, saying, “Guess who’s helping us with Sarah Jessica Parker’s costumes on GLEE? The amazing Anna Wintour!” Well, in that case, expect a plethora of sunglasses and a potential bob situation.
