British Vogue's imagery, arranged month by month for the year 1979. Made to be used and discarded, it survives as a record of how the magazine's archive reached the home.
The In Vogue Calendar for 1979 was published in the United Kingdom by Penguin Books, ISBN 0-14-088997-3, presenting British Vogue imagery as a wall calendar.
The magazine's archive, hung on the wall.
British Vogue was launched in 1916. Beatrix Miller edited it from 1964 to 1986, years in which it published much of the period's most influential fashion photography and illustration.
The calendar shares its title with In Vogue, Georgina Howell's survey of sixty years of British Vogue, first published in 1975 and issued as a Penguin paperback in 1978.
A calendar turns magazine imagery into an object lived with for twelve months, placed in kitchens, offices and studios rather than read and shelved.
Made for one year, kept for decades.
Calendars were usually discarded at the end of their year, so complete examples are fewer than the magazines they drew on.
Printed matter connected to Vogue, beyond the magazine itself, draws steady interest from collectors.
Calendars were thrown away at the end of their year, so complete copies are fewer.
Fashion imagery as a domestic object remains a theme in collecting and interiors.
