Pamela Rosalind Grace Coddington (born 20 April 1941) is a Welsh former model and former creative director at-large of American Vogue magazine.

Her interest in fashion began in her teens, when she would anxiously await the arrival of a current issue of Vogue magazine, which was at least three months outdated because she needed to order it on "rush-copy".

She says that she loves "the whole sort of chic thing ("Italianate culture") [about Vogue] that was so entirely out of context compared to the lifestyle that [she] led."

She ended up winning the Young Model section and was featured in the October issue in a photograph by Norman Parkinson.

[5] In 1967 at the age of 26, she was in a car accident that left her with head injuries and a removed eyelid, which was later reconstructed through plastic surgery.

After 19 years as Photo Editor with British Vogue,[8] in 1988, she moved to New York City to work for Calvin Klein.

[9] In July 1988 at the age of 47, she joined Anna Wintour at American Vogue, where she worked as the magazine's creative director.

In January 2016 at the age of 75, Coddington announced that she would be exiting her role as creative director at Vogue to pursue other projects.
