It's 2007 New York. The people at Vogue magazine are putting together the next September issue which is considered the yearly fashion bible. Anna Wintour is the legendary chief editor who commands the magazine and by extension the fashion world. The other main character is former model Grace Coddington who is now creative director. She is the only one who challenges Anna on her decisions. André Leon Talley is portrayed more as a sycophant. While it dives into the making of the issue, the business side of the magazine does not get as much time. There are small moments of personal reveals that cracks ever so slightly her steely facade. She talks about her family in a couple of scenes and her daughter has an appearance. It's a very small peak behind the curtains. This is a slice of an elite business. It's fascinating for some people and mildly interesting for everybody else.
