Sozzani’s talk was obviously geared toward her adoring fans, and she discussed the importance of the magazine’s website, Vogue.it, as well as the difficulties of putting together a magazine today. “To make a professional magazine today is nothing, because it doesn’t mean [anything] anymore,” she said. “Because the clothes are the same, the photographers are the same, the layout is even the same.”
