I researched into 'Fashion' magazine. The front cover gave me a lot of inspiration for my own work. I like the white background with the bright font colours. Its very eyecatching as its simple and sophisticated. The articles are appropiate for a fashion magazine and young girls my age would find them interesting to read. I like how they have the seasons must haves as thats what a lot of people buy fashion magazines for, to look at the latest fashion and where to buy the clothes. Lots of magazines feature upcoming stars on the front cover, however 'Fashion' magazine always has a well known star who is in a lot of the spotlight and is a fashion icon which I thought was quite interesting. People will more likely buy a magazine that has someone they know on the cover whereas if it were a new upcoming celeb. The articles featured on the cover are what 'Fashion' magazines target audience will want to read, a giveaway is also mentioned in big, bright text. These things are selling the magazine just from the cover as people will skim read over the cover and will be interested in the articles and therefore will buy the magazine. They have a website and the articles are somewhat young. Meaning that a lot of older women wouldn't be interested in them. I think I could draw a lot from 'Fashion' magazine as it has really good articles that girls my age would like to read and they will most likely be my target audience.
My research on 'Vogue' magazine really inspired my ideas for my own work. I like how the colour palette goes together well and even the models dress matches the colours of some of the text including the masthead. This magazine has a wide range target audience. Vogue is probably the most popular fashion magazine in the world and people of all ages buy it. Most of the magazine is just pictures of models wearing designer clothes but people like that because they can see what is new every season and they can go out and look for clothes that are similar. I think I could use this magazine as inspiration for my own work. It has a very simple and sophisticated look to it and the colour palette is clean and fresh which is what I want my work to look like.
I researched into 'Seventeen' magazine and it really inspired me. I like how bright the colour palette is, it is very eyecatching. This magazine would only be interesting to young girls my age. I like how one of the articles is "250+ Swimsuits Inside Find The Best One For Your Body", it is involving girls of all shapes and its not just fashion for slim people as some girls don't feel comfortable in certain clothing. Its also interesing because they have reseached into the different swimsuit styles and are paying attention to what their target audience likes. The articles featured on the cover are drawing the target audience in, ones such as "The #1 Secret To Perfect Skin" and theres a win article. This magazine also uses well known celebrities on the front cover, however not all of them are super famous. This shows that the magazine is so good that they don't have to have a really famous celebrity on the cover so the readers will buy it. I think I could get a lot from 'Seventeen' magazine because they have lots of reader friendly articles which makes it obvious that they pay attention to their target audience.
