Vogue (U.S.) magazine, published by global powerhouse Conde-Nast Publishing, celebrated its 120th anniversary in 2012. From a publication aimed at instructing the New York or Bostonian socialite how to dress for a jolly game of tennis and iced tea, to the one-and-only Fashion Bible featuring groundbreaking spreads, turning models into supermodels a-la-carte, making or breaking any given designer: This is the stuff fashion tales are made of. Vogue China, of which 51% is owned by China International Publishing Group’s China Pictorial magazine, took the opportunity to come out with an honorary tribute to its mothership, in the form of a special edition that runs through the magazine’s 120-year-long history: From 1920s flapper dress to a Von Fuerstenberg wrap dress. But the Chinese publication had another reason for celebration: Its very own seven-year anniversary. With an ever-increasing fashion curious and conscious audience across Chinese mainland, the magazine has surely only just begun.
