- Iconic fashion editor and stylist Grace Coddington chats with Christopher Michael in the latest installment “Unscripted”, a Models.com interview series co-produced in collaboration with The Society Management. Filmed in her New York apartment before the city went into COVID-19 lockdown, Coddington discusses her trajectory from a childhood on the remote coast of Northern England to the circumstances which led to her legendary status as a fashion stylist. With self-effacing yet straightforward candor, she delves into her longtime collaboration with Anna Wintour at American Vogue, how she was eventually won over by the crew of documentary The September Issue, and how, now aged in her 70s, she is more open than ever to new career directions.

I saw Grace for the first time at the Rochas show in 2004, I knew who she was of course, and saw her, and she SAW ME, everyone else was jostling and bitching to get in the show, she was calm and looked over at me, I was wearing a white Calvin Klein suit (she used to work at Calvin) and she looked right at me and smiled, a long smile, I smile that showed she was considering me, appreciating what I was and what I was wearing. It's a great feeling when an icon makes you feel worth notice. I wanted to speak with her, but Colin McDowell and Stella Tennant came up, and by the time we were finished talking, the moment had passed, but I'll always remember how she made me feel with that smile, that passing connection, a little bit of validation.
That's an extraordinary moment and memory.
Grace Coddington is a name that will always be part of the language of fashion. She's truly a icon and a wealth of knowledge.
And one of the few people Anna Wintour hired that was truly talented. None of that Andre Leon Talley fashion victim/clown shit.
I just finished her Autobiography. She is such an icon and a wonderful model back in the day.
Grace is now 80 yrs old. (April 20,1941) I can't imagine what the pages of Vogue would have been had Grace been absent as Creative Director. What a remarkable artist!
Ms. Coddington embodies the awareness that elegance doesn't necessarily have anything to do with appearance.
There's such an honesty and realness to her that I think makes her stand out. Very refreshing and increasingly rare in a more contrived, PR-obsessed world these days. Really enjoyed it, thank you!
Pretty profound comment about the switch to freelance work instead of working with a team. Almost eery in the current times of Covid19, "I enjoyed being part of a group of people. I work better with a group of people than on my own. One person inspires something. You know conversations…I miss having all those conversations with my colleagues."
There’s something very captivating about her. She speaks, I listen. Love her works, love her personality more.
That young man was a very good interviewer.
No he wasn’t. It was okay, at best. And the hat put an explanation point on that.
She is an indeed deep, profound woman. An expert. A genius. A muse. A sweet friend and companion. I feel that although I certainly don ' t know her .. ☆ .. Happy holidays to Ms. GRACE CODDINGTON .. ! 🤶🎅
read her memoir and love her! an icon.❤️
I think Grace is amazing!! Thank you for this interview..
I absolutely love Grace - and Christopher Michael is a very insightful questions, very good interviewer.
Agreed. Great to listen to, but visually that hat to the side seemed so contrived and "borrowed" that I had to listen rather than watch. Great interview nonetheless.
I really like her. She hit the nail on the head on the over commercialisation of the fashion industry.
To a foreigner like me it would be much easier to read the subtitles, if they had applied at least some punctuation. Not every viewer is a native speaker. I read "A Memoir" by Grace Coddington and I highly admire her personality and her work. She is a very likeable woman.
Besides, some words had been transcripted incorrectly.
STUNNING Irving Penn on the wall...😍😍😍
Talent with Grace, in both meanings....Like her directnes and the way she describe her in a quite innocent and real way to where she is today. Love her work
Grace is such a special lady. There s just something incredible about how she see s Beauty. I love her
I just love Grace!😊
This video was so groovy I subscribed. Thank you. I'm gonna love your channel.
Great interview and honesty as Grace has always been....She is a very talented person and she looks great whatever age she is. She is so down to earth and honest....and I love her hair color...something I have wanted but my skin color won't handle it..
What was great about the interview? If she wasn’t the guest, it would be a quiet, dull interview. Very hohum.
Lovely interview! Insightful lady and I´m glad we did not get any fast cuts. What I take from this is that it takes at least two Brits to make an American Vouge and good to see Grace keeps her books like me ;)
Grace Coddington and Diana Vreeland two of the most creative geniuses in Fashion hands down!!!!
Omg! Legend. Best eye ever. I can always spot a GC photo. Is she releasing any books? We need her knowledge.
I live in Anglesey where she was born and she inspires me soo much.
She really can make a photo something so special. Had I been in that industry, it would have been an absolute highlight to work with her. Magazines have changed so much since I was a kid in the 90's. I'd always look for American Vogue and pay a fortune for it in Australia! The images didn't compare.
That’s an understatement. It used to be about the fantasy of fashion. Now that idea is ancillary to their main focus: dressing bold faced names for puff pieces and press calls. American Vogue has become a celebrity gossip magazine.
Love it!
So true! ❤️
I can’t believe she hasn’t sent him out for that hat!
Grace!!! I love u forever❤❤❤
I THINK YOU GUYS SHOULD DO CAMILLA NICKERSON. Everyone wants to know her story @models
RESPECT.
Grace ❤❤❤
As real as they come!

That god awful hat..
Argument is the American way.
What will happen to you after thousand of years how do you look like if it’s nit fixed and thinking touching that building will gonna help you all to recover the mystery of great aunts and uncles um a psychic holding a card I swear to god. Lololololololx2million
Jerusalem and uae 🇦🇪 just something for you to look ok. Lololololololx2million and remember the frame 🖼 I know it’s weird you got surgery Lololololololx2million
Let me ask a question mommy ok. Lololololololx2million you look like a doll how do you feel renovating that building Condé Nast in a society after three thousand years Lololololololx2million are we gonna end up in a wall paper and being tortured to what happen to us considering we have the same bad car crash accident and being paranoid about Lololololololx2million someones hitting us and forgetting in a mirror of that hole your finger looking like a flower and not a job but a statute to raise? 🎤
She is the youngest person that I have ever seen .
Is that Trixie Mattel?
I loved her in “Carrie.” Shame she’s balding now.
red hair with red sweater/ ? NO
You understand she's the former Creative Director of American Vogue?
Absolutely...the red hair and red clothes are top level. She looks awesome ...😊
