Lavishly illustrated in full color, a book of thirty-six spectacular houses and gardens–whose owners come from the worlds of fashion, music, art, and society–drawing on stories from the pages of Vogue and Vogue Living as well as never-before-published images by iconic photographers. Vogue Living: Houses, Gardens, People takes you to the private realms of style-makers around the world, captured by such celebrated photographers as Miles Aldridge, Cecil Beaton, Jonathan Becker, Eric Boman, Oberto Gili, François Halard, Horst P. Horst, Annie Leibovitz, Sheila Metzner, Mario Testino, Tim Walker, and Bruce Weber, among many others. Their dazzling photographs bring to life interiors and exteriors, modern and classical, that are both inspiring and transporting. Writers like Hamish Bowles, Joan Juliet Buck, Dodie Kazanjian, Eve MacSweeney, Julia Reed, Marina Rust, and Vicki Woods take us behind the scenes to give us an intimate view of the owners and how they live. Here are Madonnas romantic rural retreat in the depths of the English countryside and the Oscar de la Rentas coral-stone Palladian mansion on the coast of the Dominican Republic; Michael and Eva Chows epic Los Angeles manse and shoe maestro Christian Louboutins magical houseboat on the Nile; Donna Karans Zenlike Manhattan aerie and legendary tastemaker Marella Agnellis enchanted villa and gardens in the Palmeraie of Marrakesh; Julian and Olatz Schnabels operatic downtown loft and childrenswear designer Rachel Rileys miniature château on the Loire; celebrated landscape gardener Fernando Carunchos innovative Spanish gardens and Houghton, David Cholmondeleys magnificent English stately home; Janet de Bottons idyllic Provençal estate; and four decades of Karl Lagerfelds endlessly surprising houses, both innovative and palatial.
