Seth Rotherham
  • 17 YEAR OLD ANNA WINTOUR REVIEWS 1960’S LONDON NIGHTCLUBS

    11 Sep 2009 by Seth Rotherham in Celebrities, Fashion, Media, Very Cool

    That’s right, my little fashionistas – daddy has found something quite delicious for you to chew on! A few scans have been made of the 1966 North London Collegiate School Magazine, which includes an essay by current US Vogue editor, Anna Wintour – 17 at the time.

    If I could turn back time..
    Anna Wintour : Age 21

     

    Couldn’t get a pic of her when she was 17, but I trust the above pic will be impressive enough? Back to the essay. What was the topic, you ask? Swinging 60’s London “discotheques,” no less! And you’re never going to believe the two words that she kicks off with in her first article..

    “In vogue!!” – can you stand it!?

    It’s like that old school essay I once wrote which someone unearthed the other day. The first words were, “seriously awesome.”

    And now look – I AM!!

    That’s weird, right?

    But seriously, that was pretty insightful stuff. I enjoyed how she referred to the trust fund kids set to inherit “several thousand Pounds.” Even 10,000 quid wouldn’t be deemed a lottery sized inheritance these days. Goodness, I’ve got that kind of tom in my cubby hole.

    I also smiled at the mention of the Maserati and a “souped-up Mini” standing outside the club. So Austin Powers! I wonder if he was there?

    Probably.

    Probably nailed her, too.

    I see Jerry Oppenheimer has written an Anna Wintour biography, entitled Front Row Anna Wintour: Anna Wintour: What Lies Beneath the Chic Exterior of Vogue’s Editor in Chief.

    The book details everything from her early experiences working, clubbing, dating, and being obsessed with fashion. Highlights include fashion school, Annabel’s night club, the Playboy Club, Harrod’s, having a crush on Laurence Olivier (and stalking him) and so much more.
