Guest Salons #17: Vogue’s Potential Guide to Life: And Did You Know That Models Have Feelings?
Tuesday, February 10, 2026 – 17:00–Tuesday, February 10, 2026 – 19:00
We're excited to welcome architect and supermodel Iselin Steiro and multidisciplinary artist João Doria de Souza for their Guest Salon “Vogue’s Potential Guide to Life: And Did You Know That Models Have Feelings?” Join us on Tuesday 10th of February from 18.00-20.00. Free notebooks and coffee. Welcome!
Iselin & João will talk about “Vogue’s Potential Guide to Life”, their visual-basic-meets-archive publication, which originated from looking into the history of “How To” articles in the Vogue USA’s digital archive. Through computation and literature, 65 thousand fictional article titles are presented and indexed over 156 pages.
For the third reprint of VPGL, João commissioned Iselin Steiro to write a reaction piece. Steiro’s response was a summary of her many experiences from working for Vogue — a conceptual memoir?
This is the 17th edition of Guest Salons; an active meeting point for free conversations around and beyond fashion, once a month at International Library of Fashion Research. This series is generously supported by Sparebankstiftelsen DNB.
