VogueÂ’s September 2004 issue will be its largest issue ever in the history of the magazine.

According to sources on the publishing side of Vogue, the annual fall fashion issue—one of the most highly anticipated issues of the year—will contain over 620 pages of advertisements (the previous record for ad pages was 619) and combined with the estimated 200-plus pages of editorial, the final page count could teeter well into the 850-plus page range, as ad pages continue to come in.

“This issue will set a record as the largest monthly magazine ever published,” said a well-placed executive inside Condé Nast. The issue, which as of now has a ship date of August 19, will be bound as three separate issues in one. The issue is so thick that Vogue had to take over an entire printing plant and push all other magazines that currently share the plant out.
