Vogue Covers and Interns

Look at the three people in the middle right -- don't they evoke the three Goldilocks bears walking in synchronized steps?

So I realized I was talking more about food than fashion, and this is Fashionably Yours, not foodily. So, Vogue has a huge presence in France, more so than in the States. Walking along the Champs Elysees, I came across an outdoor exhibit of classic Vogue Paris covers. They were definitely more creative with the covers back then than they are today. Still, at least French Vogue uses models on their covers. The American edition's use of celebrities is getting old and boring. Who needs to see Sienna Miller featured three times? Not me.

There are always Vogue interns or editors walking (teetering) around, running errands. The other day I was buying bread at Eric Kayser, and there was an intern there complaining on her phone, "I can't believe she wants us to check all these stores and run all these pages by tomorrow!" I wonder which of the mean editors she is referring to... In my experience, these interns can usually be identified by a)nice shoes, usually Louboutin, b)well-coiffed hair, and c)a Vogue tote, probably carrying portfolios, photos and copies. I sneakily snapped a photo of an intern along Rue de Rivoli below; note all three qualities have been met.
