Vogue is a prominent fashion and lifestyle magazine, founded in 1892 and known for its influence on trends, style photography, and celebrity culture.

The magazine's name has become shorthand for high fashion authority: She looks like she stepped out of Vogue. (Lowercase vogue means prevailing fashion or a style of dance.)
