Absolutely wonderful editorial in the September US Harper’s Bazaar, shot by Peter Lindbergh in Harlem, New York. The models are Chanel Iman and Arlenis Sosa, and you can see them in front of Harlem landmarks like the new Cotton Club, Sylvia’s Soul Food Diner and the Lenox Lounge. Bi-line reads “The fabulous 40s live on in gorgeous details, wonderful prints and all out glamour.” Need we say more?

Grace Coddington is in fact Vogue’s Creative Director, and is in charge of most of the fashion shoots. If you’re interested in her (and the almighty Anna Wintour) and Vogue in general, then you might want to check out the new documentary, The September Issue:

I haven’t seen it yet, but reviews are good, and it sounds like Grace Coddington is as much the star as Anna Wintour herself. In the New York Times, the director R.J. Cutler said, “[Anna] is cool, [Grace] is warm and languid,” he said. “Anna is all about ‘next,’ and Grace is most interested in a historical perspective on art and fashion.” Sounds like our kind of lady!
