"The legendary Vogue editor Diana Vreeland was famous for her pronouncements on all things chic\u2014so it&amp;#039;s not surprising that her in-house memos to fellow staffers are filled with her irresistibly readable opinions, directives, and ecstatic tidings of new trends: &amp;quot;This is the year of the ribbon.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Let&amp;#039;s start now using big hats.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Please be sure and note that every shoe has a strap around the ankle.&amp;quot; The best of these warm (but nonetheless strict) missives are collected in Diana Vreeland Memos: The Vogue Years (Rizzoli), with crisp reproductions of the original typewritten notes, often addressed to such fashion-world luminaries as Crist\u00F3bal Balenciaga, Diane von Furstenberg, and Horst P. Horst, as well as fellow magazine talents like Consuelo Crespi, editor of Vogue Italia, left. These candid memos give us a rare glimpse into the working life, and capricious mind, of an editorial genius, and a fascinating look behind the scenes at an iconic magazine.
