Do you know how old British Vogue is? Just make a guess! 50 years old? 70? Looks like it's been around even longer than that!!! And in 2016 it celebrated its 100 anniversary!!!
Can you imagine, this fabulous fashion magazine has been printed since 1916!!! And boy, haven't the fashions changed over the years... I had no idea they started to use models for the covers only around 50-s and before that there were just pictures of women...
Amazing, huh? Wait till you see all Vogue ****cover girls from the 60-s and 70-s and the first covers of Twiggi, Linda Evangelista, Kate Moss, Gisele and many many other super models!

I was so amazed at how these covers in just a couple of photos can
represent the whole era! The clothes, the makeup, the faces! I remember the Linda Evangelista and Christy Turlington craze back from when I was a kid, I so wanted to have Linda's cat-like eyes and Christy's big lips, I would take my Mom's lipstick and put as much as possible around my mouth to see if I could look like her...
And what cover girls you wanted to be like? Please, tell...
