MAGAZINE PROJECT GENRE RESEARCH - THE NEW YORK TIMES MAGAZINE

The New York Times Style Magazine, Women's Fashion August 19, 2018

The Cover of this fashion magazine is covered by an off centered photo of a model in bright clothing. The cover is simple and only has the name of the magazine and the name of this edition, The Face of Beauty. The cover does not include insight to whats inside or any advertisements. Overall the cover is very sleek and simple. 

The colors of the text being used are a bright Tiffany Blue and a dark gray, these colors contrast the picture behind the text and make the words pop. The name of this particular edition is in all capitals and in a bolder font versus the writing for "The New York Times Style Magazine" which is the normal writing on all the magazines for the name of the magazine. 

The first 70 pages are all full page advertisements that are all based around fashion. Once the articles start, there is a editorial letter and some smaller articles about models and different brands. Then they have a longer article about fashion iconoclasts which last for a few pages with advertisements in-between pages. After the shorter articles there are more advertisements that lead to the main articles.  Each article is categorized into a sub grouping. They have the different short articles by models and stylists in a group called "profile in style", a surfing article under "the adventurous life", and they had miscellaneous articles under a group called "things". 

The table of contents is located in the middle of the magazine after the majority of the full page advertisements. The table of contents is broken up over multiple pages and is covered in pictures of models, artwork, and more advertisements. The cover page has one picture of a model and isn't busy with advertisements. The articles have many photos, depending on the article they might have pictures of the writer of the article or the event or the product.
