Mining industry
At Vogue there was a mine called Wheal an Vogue alias Wheal an Byan, operational from the 17th century to the 19th century, and there were several stamping mills there, called Vogue Stamps, Tollan Vogue Stamps and the Lower Stamps, built circa 1700. The name Vogue itself is the Cornish word for a medieval smelting furnace or blowing house.{{cite web |title=Catalogue |url=https://kresenkernow.org/ |website=Kresen Kernow |publisher=Cornwall Council |access-date=13 May 2022}}Gover, J.

In March 2022, a public house in the village, called "The Star Inn at Vogue", received a cease and desist letter from Condé Nast, owners of the magazine Vogue, asking them to change the pub's name because "as far as the general public is concerned a connection between your business and ours is likely to be inferred".{{cite news |last1=Abdul |first1=Geneva |title=‘Hilarious’: Cornish pub will not change name despite letter from Vogue owner |url=https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2022/may/13/star-inn-vogue-cornish-pub-will-not-change-name-despite-letter-from-conde-nast |access-date=13 May 2022 |work=the Guardian |date=13 May 2022 }} The pub's owners declined to do so. Condé Nast later apologised, saying that "further research by our team would have identified that we did not need to send such a letter on this occasion."{{Cite news |date=2022-05-19 |title=Cornwall pub receives framed apology from Vogue magazine |language=en-GB |work=BBC News |url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-cornwall-61506944 |access-date=2022-05-19}}
