As Fashion Week continues to transform Bryant Park in NYC into the center of the fashion world it's time to think about just how all the clothes that are displayed throughout the week are actually marketed.
From one runway to another hundreds of the world's top models will be wearing the newest fashions representing the best of what will be appearing in Spring 2009. These are the clothes that will eventually be available for sale in all the top clothing stores across America and the world including stores such as Neiman Marcus, Saks, Nordstron, Bergdorf and a host of other specialty botique locations, most owned by the designers themselves. So, other than seeing them on the runway, how does the fashion conscious consumer see these trend setting creations? In the fashion magazines, of course.
If you are at all slightly interested in the fashion industry you MUST subscribe to one of the top tier fashion magazines. These include, at a very minimum, VOGUE, HARPERS, ELLE, W, and VANITY FAIR. By the way, the best thing about subscribing to these magazines, along with the fashions is the price, most are only $12.00 a year which is especially attractive since the cover price of most of them happens to be at least $5.99. VOGUE, the industry leader, has so many pages that may cause back problems due to its weight. So if you love fashion, want to keep up with the industry and get mail on a regular basis do yourself a favor and become a subscriber. It will be the best $12.00 you ever spent.
