Vogue World 2024 took place in Paris, France at Place Vendôme in June of 2024. The event was conceptualized by Vogue's then editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour. Each decade from the 1920s to the 2010s was paired with a sport, such as fencing, aquatics, or cycling, to highlight the relationship between fashion and athleticism ahead of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.[1][2]
