Vogue, Lacroix

Fabulous flashback.

VOGUE cover November 1988.

When Carlene Cerf de Dudzeele, one of the greatest fashion editors ever, ( formerly of French ELLE) styled this first cover for Anna Wintour when she became Editor of VOGUE. The jacket made world news for Christian Lacroix modelled by Michaela Bercu with a pair of Guess Jeans. I was in Paris in the spring and I saw the Lacroix fashions and accessories and bought the neck - cross. Still have it. In 2018 at MET Heavenly Bodies Exhibition I stood for a long time gazing at this magnificent piece shown in thjs prestigious exhibition. Almost as spectacular as the stained glass window back drop at the MET New York.

*This was the first ever pair of jeans to be photographed for the cover of vogue. 1988.
