Rating: - Good most of the time
This magazine is good about 75% of the time. There are one or two issues packed with great articles, and then one or two I just throw away because they are crap. Most of the time, the crap ones are based on European tycoons or murder of heiresses that don't hold any real value. The photos are always breathtaking. Take out the ads (about 2/3rds of the mag- some aren't bad), and this is the best of the best.
Rating: - substance as well as style
I think V.F. has sometimes been unfairly dismissed as a lightweight Hollywood or "chick" magazine. Well OK, the cover story (and photo) is usually in the entertainment field, and the publisher's media kit states that the readership is 79 percent female. What's gender got to do with it?

Rating:  - Life reflected in pulp. Dreams written on paper. Imagination come to life.
Vanity Fair embodies the very essence of what it means to be an informed, modern American. It provides insights from every aspect of life from around the world. Interesting and articulate, entertaining and informative. In a single issue you are guaranteed something to make you think, smile, reflect, and feel alive.
When you enjoy an issue of Vanity Fair, it is one of the most relaxing ways you can spend your time without feeling you've wasted a moment.
Rating:  - Vanity Fair
Don't know the history of this magazine. Thought we would try it for a year. Have been getting "The New Yorker".....so this is quite different. We think it's too heavily based on appealing to those who might want to aspire to the pictures. But it's name is true....vanity. Writing is ok....more self perpetuating....nothing that lifts beyond the realm of materialism.
Rating: - Informative Reading
One of the best for topical information. Great articles on people and news of the day.
