Deconstruction of a Front Cover


This cover page is taken from Vogue magazine. I like the colour scheme that has been used on this cover. The pink and grey really work well together. Pink connotes feminism and innocents. The grey connotes calm and is a neutral colour, which makes the pink really pop. The mast head is the colour black. I don't think that there is any particular reason behind this, it has just been used to make the title stand out. And finally there is the white text 'Summer Essential', this text is in white to make it stand out from the rest of the sell lines, which makes you believe that the main article will be focused around the summer.

The editor been very clever with the layout. I personally would like the set my magazine out like this. The mast head has been placed at the top of the page, with the sell lines below, this allows the audience to really focus on the model. The barcode is in the bottom right hand corner. 

The main image really appeals to me and I personally really like the clothing that the model is wearing, the stylist has incorporated modern style with a classic twist. The clothing obviously matches the colour scheme and really pulls the cover page together.

  1. Take care with grammar, spelling and punctuation - I know your blog is more "informal" than other types of academic work but you still must ensure that your spelling is accurate and that you are utilising the correct words. Proof reading your posts yourself would be good for you I think.
