As New York Fashion Week kicks off today, I’m celebrating the spirit of American fashion by revisiting one of Vogue’s most iconic editorials — “Gangs of New York” by Mario Testino, published in the February 2011 issue.
This striking story showcases 7 American designers marking their territory for Spring, from romantic Victorian to 1970's gloss, classic sportwear to clean minimalist. Styled by Grace Coddington and featuring a lineup of top models like Karlie Kloss and Joan Smalls — the editorial is a true tribute to New York and America's diverse style codes.
