The September Issue Page #5

So, that was it.

It was decided.

We have known

about this piece for a long time.

So I don't wanna hear it, okay?

I mean, she should

just get on the phone.

This is not clear.

Somebody needs to check these.

She looks pregnant.

We need to--...

Fix her.

- Yeah.

The first time that you're asked

to go see Anna...

...and show her your collection,

it's like...

...insane.

- lntimidating. Right.

And I remember there was me

and Meredith in Anna's office.

It was the first time I met her.

I was, like, oh, my God,

it's Anna.

It's like Madonna is Anna,

you know?

And I was just--

She's like, 'Okay, go on.'

So I'm talking

about the inspiration.

I'm moving my hands,

and I'm showing her the pieces.

And I can see my hand shaking.

It was shaking.

Because she just sat there

the whole time,

Iike, 'Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.'

So then we, we get out of there,

and Meredith's like, 'Oh, my God,

you were so well-spoken,'

but that hand kept shaking.

Anna Wintour's office.

Hi, Thakoon. How are you?

- Hi, are you?

I have eight sketches.

I don't know how you want me

to lay them out for you.

Right here.

You know Thakoon, right?

- Yes.

So these are his sketches

for the Gap project, the shirts.

And it's three that would--

We're meant to narrow it down

to three?

I think we ought to do one

with a little sleeve.

I love the little sleeve.

And then maybe one

that's a dress.

It's very hard to be a designer

in this country.

So we created a fashion fund

to draw attention to new talent,

to fund it,

and to get mentoring for it.

The winners get to design

something for a mega-brand.

You like this one?

I wouldn't discount that.

It's got a simplicity

that the Gap customer...

...is going to

immediately acknowledge.

Thakoon was one

of the winners of the award.

He has all the components to have

a serious high-end designer line.

I'm happy with those three.

Perfect. All right.

Well, thank you.

Thank you.

You never know, though.

I mean, remember lsaac Mizrahi

went out of business.

The fashion business isn't fair.

They do everything right,

and they still crash.

Those colors are good.

I'm one of the last remaining

fashion editors...

...who dress the girls myself.

I'm told the very modern thing is

to don't touch the girls.

Is that right? Yeah.

Who does it? An assistant?

- Yeah.

I don't know.

I'm a bit old-fashioned.

I love this.

See? I love this.

Good, Coco. Watch the light, guys.

Come on.

She just looks like

she's got a plastic bag on.

But it looks good.

Garbage bag or something.

Good night.

- Good night, everyone.

Well, I started reading Vogue

when I was a teenager,

and I grew up in north Wales.

And it was kind of difficult to get.
