Vogue: The Editor's Eye: A History of Fashion Photography Hardcover – Illustrated, September 25, 2012

My best friend is a fashionista...250 pairs of shoes; glorious outfits to match each pair. Re: gift-giving; my options seemed limited, UNTIL...I stumbled over "Vogue: The Editor's Eye." Haute couture worn by some of the world's top models and captured by the len's of fashion's most celebrated photographers.It is not solely about the models or the mythical froth of extraordinary design; this gorgeous book offers a marvelous amalgamation of the two...a distillation of photographic art at its finest.She opened the book...and I became invisible...what a gift!

Loved the book. I am a photographer and have always been an admirer of the Vogue covers. Some of my favorite photographers contributed many images for the coved. The book is very comprehensive and visually striking. I bought it to use as a source of inspiration when I feel a bit uninspired. Recommend highly if your a visual artist, in fashion, model, etc.

When I first saw this book I was a little scared because it didn't have a look inside feautre (as other books do) but I went ahead with my instinct and bought it. The book is really large and heavy about 40-45 cm in length, and is a hardcover book.Expectations I bought this book for my photgrapher girlfriend when she saw it her jaw dropped and every thing page she saw she said "awesome" thats how good it is. The book is filled with high quality, huge fashion photographs, it includes modern and classic pictures even famous ones, as a whole it is a very beautiful book totally recommended as a gift for a photographer, or anyone who appreciates this form of art. Besides this is one book you could keep in your living room and draw a lot of attention!! Five stars for me!!

I wasn't interested in this book for the fashion but for the photography side. Vogue photographers are some of the best in the world, so I picked it up from the library with that reference in mind. I found that I couldn't get enough of the book in two weeks, so I had to buy it, and I'm glad I did. I love the photos. They're very inspiring photographically. But I also found myself fascinated by the profiles of the fashion editors (which is what the book is about). Even as a male not involved in the fashion industry in any way, I found reading their stories, about their personalities, and the perspectives from where they fashioned their photoshoots from completely interesting.Whether you're a fashionista or a photographer with an interest in fashion photography or even just in inspiration to give your clients a little extra edge in their shoots, you need to pick up this book. It's definitely worth the investment.

This will not be a book you will use to try and soothe yourself to sleep, but it is a wonderful addition to your coffee table or bookshelf to provide a wonderful book as an interesting decoration. it's quite a massive book, and has stunning photographs from the pages of vogue. Very happy with this fun purchase.

I think that this book is the top of the iceberg of the huge Vogue's world, however is full of magnificent images, and tells a few nice stories. You will see just greats photographers page after page, iconic models and well know people. All the book is interesting and you will love it and keep it like a treasure.

Content is wonderful! It is on the coffee table. I looked through it very slowly and got great pleasure from that. To be really honest about the purchase. If Rooney Mara was not on the cover, I doubt I would have bought this, although it's content is wonderful entertainment for us who love visual smorgasbord such as this. Rooney is such a chameleon. Look for her to soar.

Very good but could have been awesome. I wish there were better photos or maybe more photos or just maybe a book of photos!
