Earlier than it’s in style, it’s in Vogue—this we all know. However lesser celebrated is the truth that whereas it’s in bloom, it’s in Vogue, too. All through our 130-plus years, we’ve traversed the prettiest corners of the earth and photographed spectacular gardens for our readers, from the formal boxwood hedge bordered by towering palms within the Punta Cana, Dominican Republic backyard of the late Oscar de la Renta to the much-celebrated nation residence of Dries Van Noten in Belgium—which, since being photographed for Vogue’s 2014 concern by François Halard, has launched a thousand pins onto temper boards.
With Miranda Brooks, famend panorama architect, serving as contributing editor for many years now, it’s no marvel we have been invited into a number of the most esteemed gardens. A number of of her works (together with her personal property within the Cotswolds) have graced our pages.
Gardens are on the forefront of our minds forward of the Metropolitan Museum of Artwork’s forthcoming exhibition: “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Style.” Company attending the opening evening gala are being requested to comply with a costume code of “The Backyard of Time.”
There are few issues our editors love greater than backyard—see the easiest, under.
