Starting my annual live-tweeting of my reading of @condenast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue. Predictions: even MORE #CarefullyCalibratedDiversity; ageist fetishization of youth; huge amount of adspend wasted looking like everyone else; nothing's changing in fashion's old world 
We LOVE @serenawilliams on the cover of @condenast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue with @OlympiaOhanian. We don't love that the photographer wasn't a Black woman. Anna Wintour is the queen-maker - uplift a Black female photographer to be the next @annieleibovitz & pay her the $$$
.@LancomeUSA forked out the $$$ to be the @condenast @voguemagazine inside cover foldout, running the same old Julia Roberts La Vie Est Belle ad they've run for years. What a waste of a huge-impact triple-spread that @LancomeFR could've done something really creative with
Starting my annual ritual of live-tweeting my reading of the @CondeNast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue Predictions: even MORE Carefully Calibrated Diversity; ageist fetishization of youth; huge amount of adspend wasted looking like everyone else; the theme #newbeginnings won't be
Separate to the fact the cover is extraordinarily visually non-compelling, why models YET AGAIN, @condenast @voguemagazine? I want to see real world women on your cover, with real world bodies, real world age, real world achievements. Especially Black women #SeptemberIssue
The big @condenast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue inside cover gatefold spot is taken by @RalphLauren. No, Ralph, featuring Black models doesn't make you anti-racist. Changing the fact you don't have any Black talent on your leadership team does: corporate.ralphlauren.com/leadership
OK folks, here we go. Today, off and on (because work and chores) I'll be conducting my annual ritual of live-tweeting my reading of the @condenast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue. And I'll be bringing to it the same lens I have in previous years + a 2020 one. Follow this thread:
Anyone following this thread might also like to watch my @BoF conversation with @imranamed from June featuring my four must-dos for the fashion industry to have a future post-pandemic: I'll be echoing those themes @condenast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue
The first thing to note about this year's @condenast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue, beyond its theme #VogueHope, is that for the first year in a VERY LONG TIME, it is not a gigantic doorstopper of an issue. Pandemic = less advertising and editorial.
"I want to share 4 innovation imperatives for the fashion industry. Fashion must innovate a) through technology, b) through value creation, c) through leadership, and d) through communication." I talk to @imranamed @BoF about the #FutureOfFashion youtube.com/watch?v=HROGVG… #BoFLive
"I'm a hard-headed, pragmatic businesswoman. Everything I talk about in this conversation has only one objective: to enable the fashion industry to sell and to make more money, which it very badly needs to do." I talk to @imranamed @BoF youtube.com/watch?v=HROGVG… #FutureofFashion
"Every year I live-tweet my reading of @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue. I tagged every brand I referenced in my 2019 thread, incl Vogue, & not a single one responded. That says something about fashion's failure to use technology to interact with consumers.' youtube.com/watch?v=HROGVG…
OK folks, hold onto your hats. Here we go. Starting my annual ritual of live-tweeting my reading of the @voguemagazine #septemberissue. Fyi: this will be happening on and off through today, because a) there's a LOT of the September issue, and b) I also have Saturday chores 🙂
@voguemagazine So...the cover. @taylorswift13. Very much admire her as a young woman conquering the sexist patriarchal music business, but - I would've loved to have seen someone not a 'standard celeb' on the cover, ideally someone older, and most ideally someone black. #liveolder #diversity
@voguemagazine The marquee inside front cover/7 pages/scent strip spot is taken by @YSL for Libre feat @DUALIPA. I can't even begin to think what that ad placement cost. A good less-obvious celeb choice, but again, as a dedicated daily wearer of YSL scent Nu, would like to see an older woman
