Living in Vogue is a compilation of interior profiles that originally appeared in British Vogue. When it was published in the United States, the name had to be changed to English Elegance to avoid confusion with American Vogue. Both are now out of print, and what a difference a name makes. An attractive copy of Living in Vogue sells for double or triple the price of English Elegance, even though it is the same book. The American edition is currently available via Nick Harvill Libraries here.
Verdict.
The American. But for title and saturation of the jacket photograph, the books are essentially the same. We are going with the thrifty choice, the American edition that sells for less on the resale market.
