Kim Kardashian & Samantha Cameron make unlikely pair in BBC’s Vogue exposé
ABSOLUTELY FASHION has explored the underworld of British Vogue as it celebrates a centenary.
Kim Kardashian was chosen to speak at a Vogue 100 years dinner
The BBC program, directed by Richard Macer, reveals a fascinating insight into the highly secretive fashion magazine.
Tonight’s episode followed British editor-in-chief Alexandra Schulman as she collated 100 years of history for the much-anticipated special edition.
Kim Kardashian was one of the celebrities involved in the celebrations.
Richard explained that when he started filming the documentary, Alexandra’s opinion of Kim was: “She said she didn’t think she was particularly interesting.”

Fast forward a few months and Alexandra had invited Kim to speak at a Conde Nast 100 years dinner.
The editor-in-chief was tasked with the complex puzzle of seating arrangements.
Alexandra chose to sit Kim at the same table as former Prime Minister David Cameron’s wife, Samantha.
She conceded to doing it for entertainment’s sake, among other reasons.

Alexandra explained: “It would be interesting. More to the point that Samantha would be with the person that’s the head of the whole thing which would be appropriate for the wife of the Prime Minister.”
The documentary delved rather deeply into Alexandra’s personal life as it revealed the underlying passion behind her life’s work for Vogue.
She said: “"It must be so brutal for people who rely on their looks, they fade. I’ve never defined myself by how I look.”
Her comments baffled viewers who shared their confusion online.

Of the remark, Georgia Threadgold tweeted: “Incredible coming from Editor in Chief of Vogue UK”.
Laura Kemp shared the sentiment, tweeting: “Editor in Chief of @BritishVogue pitying people that rely on their looks to get them through life... Eh?”
The programme also went behind-the-scenes of the decision to make the Duchess of Cambridge the covergirl for the 100th anniversary edition.
It also documented an Ab Fab-inspired shoot where Patsy and Edina styled model Georgia May Jagger.
