Vogue magazine analysis
Gender-Female
Social economic groupings-ABC1
This is one of many
editions of vogue sporting the famous face of Beyonce. The magazine itself
is very popular with women. With this magazine you can see that the magazine is
being aimed at women as the image of Beyonce appears which instantly persuades
women knowing her superiority, to buy this magazine. Also with the cover lines
one in-particular says 'strong and sexy suits' this instantly allows women to
be intrigued to this magazine as to what exactly makes a amen strong and sexy
and how to become this certain female type. This issue is also clearly seen as
an empowerment to women which of cause would aim many women as well as Beyonce
fans, with the cover lines such as 'QUEEN B! BEYONCE RULES THE WORLD' would
obviously attract strong independent women which are also part of the audience
VOGUE would want to appease as majority of independent women are self finical,
therefore would be good economically.
Looking at the age aimed at
you can see that it is obviously aimed at those who are driver by career as you
would expect those with money to purchase it just by looking at the masthead
which is VOGUE. You can clearly see who the age for VOGUE is used to appeal to
a wide variety of people so as well as the age, it would also appeal to a
audience of Beyonce which can range from 16+ or maybe even younger. Looking
into the cover lines what would appeal to women of that age would be fashion etc;
and also the majority of the cover lines are related to fashion. Looking at one
of the certain cover lines it says 'Simple, Sleek Elegance' this would relate
to those of that particular age as they would be wanted to look their best and
elegant.
Then you have the social
economic grouping, which obviously would be quite high up as VOGUE is known to
promote expensive attire such as Chanel, Marc Jacobs, Dior etc. So this would
apply to the group ABC1 all who are about or would want to purchase out of this
book. Also as I said before this particular magazine is linked to more
independent women, which represents those you are finically able to purchase
what they would like. The way Beyonce is dressed it comes across very elegant
to represent the magazine; this also shows how the magazine would be linked to
those who are much higher up economically.
