British Vogue's Alexandra Shulman to release diary documenting the magazine's centenary year

British Vogue has reported that editor-in-chief Alexandra Shulman is to release her personal memoir of the magazine's centenary year.

Entitled, "Inside Vogue: A Diary Of My 100th Year," the memoir will document the behind-the-scenes story of Shulman's life during the magazine's landmark anniversary.

Commenting on what fans can expect from book Shulman said, "It's written completely contemporaneously. Most people write about the job they do after they stop doing it, but I wanted to write about how these days are live rather than in retrospect. The temptation, of course, is to correct yourself when you have seen that you were wrong about something, but I am resisting it which I hope will make the book interesting and truthful."

As well as including details on the preparations behind the magazine's 100th issue Shulman will also record important moments from the year surrounding the centennial issue including the opening of the National Portrait's landmark "Vogue 100, A Century of Style" exhibition and the filming of a BBC documentary on the magazine which is due to air in the fall.

"Inside Vogue: My 100th Year" will be published by Penguin/Fig Tree on October 27, 2016.
