The cover of the magazine has a colour theme of bright pinks, the colour of a tiffany box and black. The background is white this makes the text stand out because it is quite fluorescent and there for grabs the audience’s attention.
The font is easy to read and the more important something Is such as the title the bigger the font is. Other things like ‘MEN MEN MEN!’ and ‘720 HOT LOOKS. COATS! SHOES! BAGS!’ this is all done to grab the attention of a female reader as its all the things a female talks about.
The magazine stands out because it says “ONLY £2” and “AND MORE!” This makes readers feel like they are getting a good deal because its ‘only’ £2 and there is so much more to read.
The woman on the front cover of the magazine is standing in quite a seductive position. Her eye make-up has made her eyes stand out, this makes the reader feel as if they have direct contact with her, she also looks like she is trying to be ‘sexy’ she has Smokey eye make-up , a pout and a short, tight and girly dress. The content of the magazine is attracted to woman about 16-25years old as it talk about men, bags, fashion, shoes and makeup however the front girl would attract the attention of men.
The adverts are very upper class, for example Louis Vuitton is a main feature in the magazine, its very high class fashion with not all of the prices features in the magazine but instead says ‘price on request’ this could make you think that everything is very expensive to the point where they do not want to feature the price in fear that it could put you off. There is a very high value of adverts as this is one of the main ways in which the magazines make their money. All of the adverts are targeted towards females featuring; perfumes, lipsticks, make up and clothing lines. All of the adverts take up at least one page; this tends to catch the attention of the target audience. It is obvious the magazine is for more upper/working class people also because they brand the expensive adverts as ‘affordable’ for example a coat in the magazine, looking like a normal winter coat was £565 and some plain black pumps were £170, these are clearly unaffordable for most people.
It is clearly directed at women as well because there is a 12 page spread only on the 50 sexiest men in the world; straight men are likely to have no interest in looking at this.
The first advert page of the magazine is of a perfume advert (women’s) then the last is an advert for hair product, and make up.
