The poster is a vintage 1970 Vogue magazine cover featuring a close-up of model Maudie James. SShe is wearing a sheer, light-colored veil or netting over her face, which has small polka dots. Her blonde hair is styled in soft curls. Around her neck, she has a multi-strand necklace made of large, rounded, opaque beads, She is also wearing a top or dress that matches the sheer fabric of the veil, visible around her shoulders.
These are likely from the time of the issue launch and are likely used as a rough cut proof for the presentation of the issue itself in the offices of British Vogue. A piece of history.
The cover text highlights fashion and beauty themes of the time, including "THE PEACHES AND CREAM LOOK THAT MAKES YOU A BEAUTY NOW" and "WHAT TO WEAR WITH WHAT.

British Vogue is a British fashion magazine published based in London since autumn 1916. It is the British edition of the American magazine Vogue and is owned and distributed by Condé Nast. British Vogue's editor in 2012 claimed that, "Vogue's power is universally acknowledged. It's the place everybody wants to be if they want to be in the world of fashion" and 85% of the magazine's readers agree that "Vogue is the Fashion Bible". The magazine is considered to be one that links fashion to high society and class, teaching its readers how to 'assume a distinctively chic and modern appearance'.

Because of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm.

These posters will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.
