GRACE CODDINGTON

I decided to find out
who she was.Because woman in her 60ies with Long red hair was really non-typical. So I find out that
She's US VOGUE's creative director and she's working there since 1988.
She has the feeling of trend and style on top,said Anna Wintour about Grace in September Issue.
I want to tell you some interesting biographic moments about Grace Coddington.

She was born in Wales at 1941. She had interest in fashion since childhood, when she was teenager she was waiting for VOGUE issue every month, she lived far away from designer shops and VOGUE was her only connection with fashion world.When she turned 17, somebody sent her photos for VOGUE's young model competition, and she won. She became the model working for her favorite magazine.

She became a model and huge celebrity very soon. Because she was first woman who had haircut Bob from Vidal Sasoon. Over more she was first model, who started modeling for Mary Quant. Yes, she was first model to wear mini-skirts invernted by Mary Quant. So she became world wide celebrity and scandalous person, I think it was easier do become scandalous in 60ies. So I want to show you some her photos from her modeling career.

In the golden period of her modeling career, something terrible happened, she got into car accident, and injured eye. She had plastic surgery, but she decided to give up modeling.

She still loved fashion, but she didn't wanted to be model and she opened herself as a stylist. She became awesome stylist. She has really became good stylist, because she had inborn sense of style and endless imagination. So now she is one who leads Vogue with Anna. I like her, because she seems to be modest person. She has lavish ideas for VOGUE photo shots, but it always works. She gives a little push to photographers with her ideas, and then asks them to go outside of frames and open imagination.
