Political Fashion Icons

Sarah Palin in Vogue

Two years ago, Sarah Palin was relatively unknown when she posed for a high end fashion magazine.

Today, the photos of Sarah Palin from an old Vogue magazine shoot are back in circulation and fashion bloggers are hungry to post them on their websites. The photos show Palin in snow and heavy winter apparel.

Before she was Alaska’s Governor, she was a beauty pageant contestant and much admired sports reporter. Fashion has always been an important part of her image, but now that the media is crazy for more Sarah Palin images, the chances are good other fashion magazines will request photoshoots with her as well. It would be particularly timely now that winter fashion is hitting stores and magazine spreads.
