Hype is always a terrible word unless it's used in a rap song, said Lena Dunham, creator and star of the anticipated new HBO series Girls, which takes a comic look at the underwhelming lives of twenty-somethings in New York. We sat with Dunham and her costars, Allison Williams, Zosia Mamet, and Jemima Kirke, on the set of their Vogue shoot and talked about the similarities between their own lives and those of their characters—and why people are still surprised when women are funny.

Vogue places fashion in the context of culture and the world we live in—how we dress, live and socialize; what we eat, listen to and watch; who leads and inspires us. Vogue immerses itself in fashion, always leading readers to what will happen next. Thought-provoking, relevant, and always influential, Vogue defines the culture of fashion.
