I saw Grace for the first time at the Rochas show in 2004, I knew who she was of course, and saw her, and she SAW ME, everyone else was jostling and bitching to get in the show, she was calm and looked over at me, I was wearing a white Calvin Klein suit (she used to work at Calvin) and she looked right at me and smiled, a long smile, I smile that showed she was considering me, appreciating what I was and what I was wearing. It's a great feeling when an icon makes you feel worth notice. I wanted to speak with her, but Colin McDowell and Stella Tennant came up, and by the time we were finished talking, the moment had passed, but I'll always remember how she made me feel with that smile, that passing connection, a little bit of validation.

Grace Coddington is a name that will always be part of the language of fashion. She's truly a icon and a wealth of knowledge.

Grace is now 80 yrs old. (April 20,1941) I can't imagine what the pages of Vogue would have been had Grace been absent as Creative Director. What a remarkable artist!

Ms. Coddington embodies the awareness that elegance doesn't necessarily have anything to do with appearance.

There's such an honesty and realness to her that I think makes her stand out. Very refreshing and increasingly rare in a more contrived, PR-obsessed world these days. Really enjoyed it, thank you!

No he wasn’t. It was okay, at best. And the hat put an explanation point on that.

Pretty profound comment about the switch to freelance work instead of working with a team. Almost eery in the current times of Covid19, "I enjoyed being part of a group of people. I work better with a group of people than on my own. One person inspires something. You know conversations…I miss having all those conversations with my colleagues."

To a foreigner like me it would be much easier to read the subtitles, if they had applied at least some punctuation. Not every viewer is a native speaker. I read "A Memoir" by Grace Coddington and I highly admire her personality and her work. She is a very likeable woman.

Agreed. Great to listen to, but visually that hat to the side seemed so contrived and "borrowed" that I had to listen rather than watch. Great interview nonetheless.

She really can make a photo something so special. Had I been in that industry, it would have been an absolute highlight to work with her. Magazines have changed so much since I was a kid in the 90's. I'd always look for American Vogue and pay a fortune for it in Australia! The images didn't compare.
@periscope77319 ай бұрын
That’s an understatement. It used to be about the fantasy of fashion. Now that idea is ancillary to their main focus: dressing bold faced names for puff pieces and press calls. American Vogue has become a celebrity gossip magazine.
