VOGUE Magazine September 15, 1944
The cover of Vogue Magazine on September 15, 1944, featured model Megan Mudd and was photographed by Irving Penn.
Lee Miller's article in the issue is significant for several reasons, particularly for its context, content, and Miller's unique dual perspective as a model and war correspondent.
As one of the few female war correspondents during World War II, Miller offered a rare female viewpoint on war's harsh realities through her firsthand accounts of the liberation of Paris, giving Vogue's audience insight into the devastating effects of conflict.
Her work challenged traditional gender roles. While Vogue primarily focused on fashion, Miller's contributions highlighted that women could be both consumers and active participants in historical events.
