Another September, another glossy tome of inspiration sent from the gods of fashion. The September issue is seen by fashion lovers around the world as the pinnacle of what is haute, giving us trends, looks and show-stopping editorials since the beginning of time (because nothing really existed before the September issue, right?). And this year is no different. Cover girl Kendall Jenner serves us fierceness in the likes of Proenza Schouler, John Galliano and Givenchy.

Let’s take a look back at some of our favorite fashion photography moments from September issues past, and think long and hard about how we can up our own fashion game (and take better photos to flaunt it).

So happy September everybody! And thank you Vogue for pushing boundaries and showing us how it’s done. Let’s all get out there and get our headscarves tied, our face-nets placed, and our body paint on. Seize the day, and look damn good doing it!
