It was released in select theaters in the United States on August 28, 2009, by Roadside Attractions.

In the end, Wintour approves most of Coddington's ideas and they appear in the final version of the September issue.
The site's critics consensus reads: "This documentary about the making of Vogue's biggest issue and its frosty editor-in-chief is fascinating eye candy and light-on-its-feet fun.
