When British Vogue was launched, it was the first overseas edition of an existing magazine. Under the magazine's first editor, Elspeth Champcommunal, the magazine was essentially the same as the American edition, but for its anglicized spellings. Under its second editor, Dorothy Todd, the magazine shifted its focus from fashion to literature and lost much of its audience. It was under Alison Settle, the magazine's third editor, that the magazine took off. British Vogue's current editor-in-chief is Alexandra Shulman. British Vogue is more commercial in approach than other editions of Vogue. [ [http://english.people.com.cn/200507/21/eng20050721_197537.html China's in vogue so Vogue's in China] ]

British Vogue is the most profitable British magazine as well as the most profitable "Vogue" besides the US edition. In 2007, it ran 2,020 pages of advertising at an average of £16,000 a page.
