Answer
British Vogue
Answer
British Vogue
Vogue’s first British edition, published in 1916, was titled British Vogue.
British Vogue was launched during the First World War as the first overseas edition of the American fashion magazine. Its creation allowed Vogue to develop an editorial identity suited to British readers while remaining connected to the wider Vogue publishing network.
The edition became one of the most influential fashion magazines in the United Kingdom. It has covered British designers, models, photographers, artists, actors, and public figures, and its pages have often reflected changes in British society as well as clothing.
British Vogue is sometimes confused with Vogue Paris, Vogue Italia, or later international editions. Those publications belong to different national editions and began at different times. British Vogue’s 1916 launch is also distinct from the later appointments of its editors-in-chief, including Audrey Withers and Alexandra Shulman.
