in Super Bowl VII, capping a 17-0 season.

On December 17, 1892, Arthur Baldwin Turnure first published
a new magazine, dedicated to “the ceremonial side of life”
and targeted at “the sage as well as the debutante, men of
affairs as well as the belle.”
As a product of the Gilded Age, Vogue has chronicled and
influenced high society, fashion and culture ever since.
Publisher Condé Nast purchased Vogue in 1905, changing it
to focus almost entirely on women and fashion and creating
the first of its international editions (there are now over 20).
The magazine has remained popular and relevant ever since,
regularly featuring the work of world-famous models, writers
and photographers.
