Womens magazine treatment

Name of publication: Formo

Formo is the Latin word for fashion

It’s a women’s fashion magazine which covers looks for all aspect of the week and occasions, work, home, lunch dates, evening wear, wedding clothes and so on.

The target audience is around 18 – mid 30’s and will appeal to the not so mainstream type. It keeps you up to date with latest trends or just classic looks, which never go out of date.

The magazine wont feature overly priced clothes and un realistic trends from catwalks but will keep up to date in some elements. 

Appeals to all sizes shapes heights, looks etc. so no type of woman is left out. And aren’t constantly looking at photoshopped models which no one can relate to.

There will be regular monthly pages such as celeb to High Street, so the celebrity looks and prices and where you can buy them. Which will be shown as cover lines on the front page.

New boutique shops.

Months worst and best trends etc.

Cleb to high street

The magazine will have a simple look about it, bright colours, minimalistic.

The cover will feature some celebrities as cover woman but also a range of natural sized models wearing clothes featured in the magazine.

Clear layout, not to cluttered.

The masthead will be a plain sans serif font. Won’t be to fancy because It shouldn’t take your eye away from cover lines and cover girl. It will need to be something that will stick in people’s minds so they begin to recognize the logo.
