Vogue is the most expensive magazine in history.

Vogue is arguably the most famous published magazine still in circulation today. It has always evolved with the times to reflect the modern woman. While started in America, Vogue is now represented in 11 other countries. Does this Spark an idea?

  1. History

    • Vogue began as a high society paper in New York by Arthur Baldwin Turnure in 1892. Rather than a fashion magazine, Vogue printed articles detailing high society life: reviews of popular plays, music and instructions on social etiquette.

    Changes

    • Vogue was forever changed when it was bought by advertising genius Conde Nast in 1909. He began selling ad space to high-end retailers and designers of the time and removed the men sections, making vogue a completely women's magazine. In 1916 he expanded Vogue's empire to include Britain and France.

    Vogue Today

    • Vogue has more than 1 million readers in the United States today. Spearheaded by Anna Wintour, who became editor-in-chief in 1988. Vogue is the icon of modern high fashion and style in America and throughout the world.
