Anna Wintours first Vogue


In 1988 Anna Wintours first volume of Vogue edited by her was released. The front cover included an image of an Isreali model, Michaela Bercu, wearing a Christian Lacroix jacket with a giant bejeweled cross embellished upon it. Anna Wintour declared this as the end of Vogue's old hieratic formalism.

This is a major moment in the history of fashion and in the use of religious symbolism in fashion.
