Does this woman have the credentials to still be Editor of UK Vogue?

What was Anna Wintour really thinking about the way Alexandra is dressed here? It looks like she just finished cleaning her house.

Alexandra looks like Anna's little sister who was always left to her shadow in that picture.

I don't want to be harsh, but if I need to cheer myself up thinking that I have nothing to wear/I can't dress, I will just have to look at this picture and ta-da, I'm happy again.

Does anyone have any other pictures of Alexandra? I've always wondered if she was as chic as Anna Wintour, Carine Roitfeld etc. Apparently not, judging by the pic above but surely she must have better moments.

^They do have great issues every once in a while, though sometimes they are too 'trendy'.

She's definately not the best dresser in the world, I mean look at the 2nd pic, that denim jacket is awful. The last dress is OK I suppose, but not very flattering up top. She needs a good hairdresser to do something with her hair too.




If you compare her to Anna Wintour, there's really no competition, apart from in this pic (Anna's hair - no!)

Alexandra Shulman, editor, British Vogue


Londoner Alexandra Shulman has been at the helm of British Vogue since 1992, and in her 14 years as the grand-dame of the British fashion scene has brought out some highly memorable Vogue covers. Remember the gold December 2000 cover with the Kate Moss silhouette, now a collector's item? Or the nude Robbie Williams/Gisele cover?

Shulman, the daughter of theatre critic Milton Shulman and writer Drusilla Beyfus, went to the University of Sussex before starting her career at Tatler in 1982. Five years later she moved to the Sunday Telegraph and then onto Vogue as features editor in 1988. She became a woman in a man's world as editor GQ in 1990 before slipping behind the editor's desk at Vogue. Since taking the helm, Schulman has shown that she's in touch with the times. Schulman's determination to include high-street fashion in the magazine (after all, Kate Moss, Victoria Beckham and Kylie were all rummaging around in TopShop) created waves amongst Vogue stalwarts, who thought the magazine was dumbing down. But it's been a shrewd move – Vogue now sells over 200,000 copies per month, with a readership at well over 1 million.

Schulman, a determined but unshowy editor, doesn't have the love her/hate her presence of Anna Wintour. But she has the respect of her colleagues, who in 2004 voted her Editor's Editor of the Year. This year she was awarded an OBE for services to the magazine industry.

I'm now convinced she should be fired ASAP. She's just licking Wintour's a**. British Vogue should be ashamed of itself.

Alexandra Shulman - Editor of British Vogue

It will be repeated tis evening 7:30pm, 11:30pm, 2:30am all Eastern Time

CLICK ON THE LINK FOR LOCAL PROGRAM TIME
http://www.bbcworld.com/Pages/Schedules.aspx


Tuesday 22nd May:

The global fashion industry is enormous and growing. It’s worth hundreds of billions of dollars a year and employs millions of people… but the industry is also highly controversial.


The aggressive competitiveness and disposable nature of fashion has put ethical issues such as the health of models and the use of child labour under scrutiny as well as the environmental issue of sustainability.


Stephen Sackur asks Alexandra Shulman whether the fashion industry needs a make-over.

you can also watch the interview online at bbc.co.uk

i think that Alexandra is infact doing a good job at British Vogue, sales are constant, the content is of a high quality and they like to put models on the cover and need not to put celebrities each month to sell copies.
i admit that she doesnt dress as fierce as anna wintour but u know what, its not the end of the world, its not in her job description per-se

the interview was interesting, i think that the interviewer made some good and very bad points and it showed him in a very ignorant way but i think alexandra could have stood her ground and explained herself a bit better

i wonder if she was given the questions in advance
