Its cover, The Look from Head to Foot, shows winter fashion with Missoni in blue fur, photographed by Norman Parkinson. Inside are features on New York, Paris people, parties and Vogue Living. Parkinson, who had worked for Vogue from the 1940s to 1960, continued to shape fashion imagery through the 1970s.
A winter look, photographed by a master of movement.
By the early 1970s Missoni had become one of the most celebrated names in Italian fashion, known for its colourful knitwear and patterns. Its appearance on a Vogue cover reflects the growing prestige of Italian ready-to-wear in the international press.
Features on New York, Paris and parties show Vogue's focus on international social life in the early 1970s. Fashion was presented alongside the people and places that set the tone of the moment.
The cover theme suggests a complete look, from hat to shoes, a reminder that 1970s fashion valued coordinated outfits and strong silhouettes. Parkinson's photography gave such images life and energy.
