Blahhh!!
vanityfair: The Vanities opener page in the magazine—conceived as our so-called “second cover”—turns 20 this year. And so, for its birthday, we look at back at the making of the page throughout its history—including its aesthetic inspiration (hattip, Elvgren!) and the ingenues-turned-A-listers who made the cut. Before they won an Oscar, they were a Vanity. (Click below to see how we were influenced for an ’09 shoot.) Top, “Out of This World,” by pinup maestro Gil Elvgren, from 1959; below, , March 2009. One day when I have lots of money and lots of stuff lol
