Do you still read Vogue?

By Andrea Kiliany Thatcher on January 1st, 2009

The New York Times has an interesting critique of Vogue magazine today which got us thinking, how relevant is Vogue today? Is it still the most relevant fashion magazine in print? And if so, does that mean much?

Cathy Horyn writes about the fact that Anna Wintour chose to print a letter to the editor in this month’s issue which accurately describes Vogue’s main problem – that it’s in a rut. The same cover girls and “muses” are recycled over and over, albeit with often fantastic writing, editing and photography.

So we’re wondering, internet and fashion-savvy blog readers that you are, do you still read Vogue magazine?
