As international editor for Vogue, Menkes has a wide reach, not only through her involvement with all the Vogue titles online, but also thanks to a long and varied career. Having spent years writing about the intricacies of the fashion industry, she has won the trust and respect of most of its leading figures. As far as I can gather from her team, so widely adored is Menkes, that when she asks designers to be involved with her conference, they move mountains to make it happen. This year, for example, Menkes has secured more than 44 participants, including some of the biggest and most groundbreaking labels.
