But maybe we can prioritize.

And you should, you know,

if you hate something,

just say I never want to see that

in the magazine.

There's two coats here.

I'm sort of undecided about them.

It is similar to

the one we did in July.

It's not because you're thinking

of the one we shot and didn't run.

I've shot them twice,

but we have not had them

in the magazine.

The coat didn't run.

Anyway, there's

all these little dresses.

And then this little coat.

I love

all these little evening things.

Let's remove the coat.

I have to have

a little freedom to play around.

Grace, I mean, there's

a lot of wearable things in this,

and I want this

to be more wearable than not.

I started working

for American Vogue...

...the same day as Anna did.

I think we understand each other,

pretty much.

Just through

living together for twenty years.

She knows I'm stubborn.

I know she's stubborn,

and I know

when to stop pushing her.

She doesn't know

when to stop pushing me.

Is it odd just having one fur?

Should we have one other thing

that has a fur?

I just think it's odd to have one.

I mean, maybe you're

going to do a fur hat or--

I think it's sort of strange

to have a whole shoot--

I'm trying to make

as many different looks as possible.

Yeah, but I think

you need one more.

Otherwise,

you're gonna get bored.

Well, I would take that out.

And then these are all out,

is that right?

No.

These are beautiful.

Don't throw those out.

They're beautiful.

And I don't think

we should do this.

This one from Resort, right?

Yeah, it's so perfect.

I know, Grace. It's going

in the stores in November.

You can do it

in the November issue.

How can she think

of leaving these out?

I know. I love those.

- That was unbelievable.

But I'm not leaving them out.

They're so cute.

Yeah, they are. And perfect.

And what is this thing about we need

a fur coat to match that one?

Or a fur hat.

Oh, please. I mean, now, look.

What's this?

And she's thrown it out.

This is fur.

This is fur. This is fur.

That's the craziest thing

I've heard.

These are

all the September issues...

Those are all

the September issues...

...that your mother...

- has done.

She had a lot of her old issues.

And then one time,

I came in here and looked...

...and saw that she didn't have

everything that she'd ever done.

And I just thought

it would be nice for her.

So now she's got everything.

I remember that.

That was controversial.

That was controversial.

Putting a black girl

on the September cover was...

...for my first one,

that was considered questionable.

This got us a lot of attention,

fur on the cover.

This is

the death-warmed-up cover.

This one's really cute,

because they're puppies.

They look so pale.

I certainly read British Vogue

when I was fourteen, fifteen.

This is the one you hated.

- Yes.

My American grandmother

used to send me Seventeen.

That was a very high point

of my childhood every month.

Oh, right, Gwyneth.

This was when we

moved in celebrities.

So we've gotta decide

between these two.

Which one?

I like the color on that.

- You do?

But I like the dress

on the other one.

And then the other thing

I wanted to show you, darling, was--

What do you think?

That's got your look.

Her hair is in her face in that one.

You like that one?

One of these.

- Okay, good.

Do you think you'd ever work

at the magazine with your mom?

No.

I think I'm gonna go

to law school.

So probably not.

But I don't know.

I'm gonna get through college first.

Sorry, Mommy.

Well, early days. We'll see.

I really don't

want to work in fashion.

It's just not for me.

I really respect her, obviously.

But it's a really weird industry

to me,

and it's just not for me.

She wants me to be an editor.

I don't wanna put it down,

but it's...

I would never want

to take it too seriously.

Some of the people in there

act like fashion is life.

And it's just...

It's really amusing,

and you can make fun of them.

But for that to be your career,

it's just like...

There are other things

out there, I think.

Isabel.

Let's take a look

at your Resort collection.

They're very clean and crisp.

Almost--this is a compliment--

institutional, clinical.

You got it.

- Clinical.

Andre...

Andre's having a great time

with lsabel today.

Fabulous time.

Has all these ideas of still lifes

and things that we can do,

so we're doing all that.

You make sunglasses, too?

- Yeah.

Upside down.

Look at my tape. Exactly.

Upside down.

You have such an eye.

Make sure you feature the bag.

I like that a lot.

- Yeah, I really do.

Nice block.

Beautiful.

This is it?

Are they sending more to us,

or is this kind of it?

These are all they gave me.

Somehow, you know,

little dark wigs we've seen quite often,

so you have to find another way

to do a twenties.

Go like that.

The girls

were wonderful, and...

...they all seemed

to work perfectly.

I hope it looks

as good as I think it does.

We've done them

in a very soft color.

It's almost

like old film that's faded.

I love when it goes soft and

even sometimes if there's movement,

there's a little blur on things.

But I don't know.

Everybody seems

to like things pin-sharp these days.

I think it's a shame.

I hope it's okay.

- I think this looks great.

Is that this week?

This was this morning.

This morning?

I mean, I knew

that they were doing that,

but I didn't know...

That that would be on the cover.

Right. It's kind of exciting.

I guess I would just

start at the beginning...

...with when The Gap

came to you.

It was Vogue that called

and said that, you know,

we are working with The Gap

this coming-up year,

and we want to launch

the partnership...

...with this concept

of reworking the white shirt idea.

Congrats.

Thank you.

- Your face is everywhere.

How are you?

It's good to see you.

It's amazing.

Amazing. So proud of you.

It's so nice.

Hi, Anna, how are you?

So, I told you

I'd get you The Gap.

I know, I know.

You got me a huge thing,

which is great.

Thank you so much.

It's so funny.

I was thinking...

...about our conversation

all those months ago.

I know. I didn't realize it was gonna

turn into such a big deal.

Have you had a good response?

Yes. I think

they were sold out online.

Really?

- Yeah.

Great. Sorry.

So...

...this is what we shot

the other day.

It was really divine.

This is all Galliano,

who was the inspiration...

...and the start of the whole story.

But I completely fell in love

with these.

This is Coco.

She was doing the Charleston

here on the bar,

nearly fell off,

but I think that's kinda great.

Excuse me.

- Oh, sure.

We're gonna try to print these out

again brighter.

Okay.

This one is a little unnecessary.

- I know. It's another story.

Don't you think?

Too much.

It is. It 's all that posing,

in different kind of a set almost.

Yeah. But the others look fine.

But do you agree?

- Yeah.
