ELLE is a hugely popular magazine with numerous global editions. This product has an older look and style compared to Teen Vogue, and carries a chic and professional vision. The target audience can vary for this magazine, but would essentially go from 16-50 years. Along with beauty and fashion articles, like many other prints, it includes articles about celebrities, which may be a vital factor when creating my four pages for my regional magazine. In this particular product, there seems to be a strong dominant presence of women, as there are no issues with men on the front cover, meaning that this magazine only associates with the female community. There is a clear house layout represented in the articles shown, which resembles and highlights the magazines maturity and professionalism. The main images are bold, effective, and carry a strong attitude, to possibly represent girl power. The sell lines relate to the content inside the magazine, and also relate to topics that would be relatable or associated to women and fashion culture.
The masthead is bold, and carries a chic, professional and mature look, which goes nicely against the content, layout and mood of the magazine. Along with this, main and normal sell lines seem to warp and fit perfectly around dominant and sub images, which allows the print to look aesthetically pleasing to the consumer, which again can represent the idea and beauty of fashion and its industry. To side with this, the chosen colour schemes also allow the reader to appreciate the content, as each cover or article has its own mood and ideas, while still keeping glossy and nicely set out, and also keeping up to the readers standards with every piece. Overall, ELLE definitely proves itself with its own design and content, and proves itself purely from its status that it is definitely a worthy fashion magazine of our time.
