Fashion Drawing in Vogue
The celebration of the art of looking good has always demanded talent, vision, and style, and the artists recruited to fill the pages of Vogue since 1909—when it was taken over by Condе Nast— have possessed these qualities in abundance. Their brilliant drawings chronicle not only fashion but also, with wit and delicacy, the whole comedy of manners that is the international social round.
