as Vogue document the hottest look from the world 's best designer , the entire fashion industry hold its breath in anticipation - then scramble to interpret what Vogue dictate : the magazine be that influential . if you be look for good , practical advice on cosmetic or pick the right style swimsuit for you body type , you be better off with glamour or Marie Claire . what you 'll find in Vogue be not really `` practical '' but rather high falutin ' , haute couture kind of stuff . compare to other popular woman 's magazine , what distinguish Vogue from the rest be how it successfully situate the fashion\/beauty business as a vital , viable and artistic component of culture and society . so you be not just get fashion layout to look at , but also great article on writer , architect , actor , art exhibit , and so on . most everything picture in Vogue be of course , out of the average person 's price range , and the overall magazine 's tone make no apology for this snobbery . but I still think it be a beautiful magazine to look at for its artistic vision , and for well-written article on culture .
