Vogue Runway Scraping
by Tony Assi
Vogue Runway is the most comprehenisve archive of high quality fashion runway images. It's the Library of Alexandria of fashion photography. After spending some time with trying to understand their backend json structure I figured out how to scrape it. There's 1900+ designers and 25,000+ collections in total. In this article I'll show you how to use the tools I made to scrape images from Vogue Runway.

You can also get your hands dirty and use the GitHub repo. It's pretty straight forward but you'll need to know a little about Python to use it.
Installation
