Grace Coddington at Versailles

This clip is from The September Issue, the documentary about the house of Vogue.  I watched this documentary about three years ago and loved it.  The hero of the film, for me, was not the famed Anna Wintour, but rather the fashion editor Grace Coddington.  It is with her passion and her vision that brings the pages of Vogue to life.  This clip shows Grace at Versailles in Paris where she shoots an editorial.

Its amazing what goes into the editorial pages of Vogue or Dazed and Confused or any of the beautiful fashion magazines out there.  I always wonder how Tim Walker finds a house-size shoe or a car size real wool knitted jumper for his sets, or who even thinks of these wonderful creations.  Yes it is usually from the artist themselves but sometimes it is the set designers.  Seconds ago while browsing on tumblr, I found a piece of art by the London set designer Cordelia Weston.  Beautiful, bold, different and inspiring....

Are those light-sabers hanging from the ceiling  -yes!  and candy coloured pom poms just chilling on the floor? -yes. Weird and wonderful is always a great combination...
