New title all the way from the USA: World in Vogue


Now, we all know that Vogue books are great, but this new one (especially over from the USA, so you won't find it everywhere) is really gorgeous!
This one-of-a-kind book of 300 photographs has literally everyone you would probably invite to the perfect party, from the most celebrated actors, artists and models to First Ladies, and social figures, drawing on stories that have appeared in the pages of Vogue over the past four decades, as well as photographs from those stories that have never been published.
These trendsetters and newsmakers are captured by our favourite photographers(again, all the best names!) Cecil Beaton, Jonathan Becker, Eric Boman, Horst P. Horst, Edward Steichen, Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, François Halard, Helmut Newton, Stephen Meisel, Snowdon, Toni Frissell, Bruce Weber, Herb Ritts, and Annie Leibovitz. Not only did these photographers take dazzling portraits—in studios or on location—that caught these iconic figures in classic, playful, or dramatic moments but they also documented their parties, such as Capote's Black and White Ball at the Plaza, the glamorous wedding of Plum Sykes in Yorkshire and the gardens of Valentino’s seventeenth-century Château de Wideville, outside Paris.
