A Customer from Bristol, 1st October, 2009

Loved this film. A real life 'The Devil Wears Prada'. Anna (Nuclear) Wintour is fabulous. Ascerbic and dominant. Suppose you have to be that way to get where she has got to and stayed there for so long. Loved Ggrace Coddington. She was the real star of the film. Her comments and her demeanour were spot on. She has an eye for the quirky angle and makes each new feature superb. This insight into the hallowed offices and life of Vogue was a joy to watch. Now I know how and by whom the excellent issues I salivate over each month are produced.

Interesting insight into Vogue

Cathy from Uckfield, 14th November, 2009

Anna Wintour is a woman who has always fascinated me. I love that photo of her at London Fashion Week 2009 - 'her face says it all as she shares front row with upstarts Pixie Geldof and Alexa Chung'. She is the woman behind Johnny Depp's character in Willy Wonka etc etc. This was a real treat for me as one of my passions is reading Vogue when I have a free 5 minutes. Anna is the pope to Vogue's Catholic Church. However the real star for me was Grace Coddington who steals the show. She is the only one brave enough to 'poke the pope'. A very interesting and elegant documentary. I did enjoy the shoot with Sienna Miller whose hair was just awful and caused real concerns for the stylists.

This film was excellent. Very interesting - so like Devil Wears Prada, nothing like Ugly Betty! I thought it showed how hard and bitchy the fashion industry can be. Grace Coddington is a legend, very clever and has a real 'eye' for what looks good. Its quite long but I didn't get bored at all.
