Fashion is a religion. This is the bible.

The September issue of US Vogue is famously chunky & highly anticipated. If often weighs in at over 700 pages.

The September Issue is also a documentary film by R.J. Cutler. He follows Anna around during the making of the September 2007 issue of US Vogue. I find that date interesting - in late 2007 the world economy was a lot happier than it currently is.

The September Issue [the movie] is released in Australian cinemas on August 20 [despite having already premiered into Sydney fashionistas during RAFW a few months back]. The trailer is available here.

"While Anna Wintour remain stoically controlled throughout (even her brief flashes of candour seem calculated), the real star is style director Grace Coddington, whose charming honesty is the antithesis to many of her colleagues' slavish devotion to (and visible fear of) all things Anna." [Australian Vogue, September 2009]
