Comments on: Meet The Gentlewoman http://magculture.com/blog/?p=4434 Magazine design, magazine news Thu, 02 Sep 2010 11:39:04 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Michael http://magculture.com/blog/?p=4434&cpage=1#comment-84135 Michael Tue, 09 Mar 2010 10:15:46 +0000 http://magculture.com/blog/?p=4434#comment-84135 There are shortcomings in your summary about fashion but that not the point here. I don't know what you meant about a conservative women's market, they could have easily forayed into something much bigger but being Dutch... To me people have become illusional. The design is just a facade for fashion styling that bares no relation the the actual reality man. It's even worse when there is a power monopoly because of the magazine's connections to whatever top editor. Honestly, I don't need to see models wearing coned tip bras. It's been done. And can't they find women who are unknown than picking women from their contact list? There is something perverse about the whole magazine to be really honest. Gentlewoman seems pretty gimmicky and Fantastic Man bordering on incredible self-vanity. There are shortcomings in your summary about fashion but that not the point here.
