MARCH MADNESS: Fashion repository publishers have been unfortunate for some good news, following a quite formidable finish to final year. A tiny whine of service can be found in a Mar issues, that are posting plain ad-page gains roughly opposite a board.

Vogue is forward of a container again, stating 442 ad pages in a Mar issue, adult 16 pages, or 3.7 percent, contra Mar 2011. This follows a estimable boost in paging for a Mar 2011 issue, adult 50 pages, or 13 percent, over a Mar 2010 issue.

Publisher Susan Plagemann pronounced a Jan and Feb issues also posted tiny increases in paging, and Apr is looking “solid….We’ve had expansion in all fashion, and sell is really strong,” pronounced Plagemann. “We didn’t have any dips, and prisoner a infancy of pages in a market.”

InStyle is stating 347 pages for a Mar issue, adult 39 pages and 13 percent over final year. Publisher Connie Anne Phillips called it a “record breaker,” observant it was InStyle’s largest Mar emanate in a 18-year history, and builds on a plain boost in Mar of final year, that reported a 20 percent boost in ad pages, to 308.

Elle will have 319 ad pages for March, adult 2 percent from final year. “We’re up, we’re pleased, though it’s never good adequate for me,” pronounced publisher Kevin O’Malley. “The pivotal drivers are oppulance and prestige. As I’m looking deeper into this year, we see expansion in American conform and some-more on a European side. And we see expansion in automotive — Buick, Infiniti and Acura.”

Harper’s Bazaar wasn’t distant behind, shutting a Mar emanate adult 15.5 percent, with 271 ad pages. “We are embarking on a code transformation,” pronounced publisher Carol Smith.” The pretension is also introducing a redesign with a Mar issue. “We are rethinking this product from repository to mobile to shopping. The new demeanour really many calls on a past as we demeanour toward a future.”

W gifted a top quarterly expansion rate in a magazine’s history, adult 17 percent for a initial quarter. The Mar emanate had 204 ad pages, adult 25 percent. “We’ll be adult again in April, in May,” pronounced publisher Nina Lawrence. “Eighteen months ago, it was only a pleasing magazine. Now, it’s a entirely grown brand. Our amicable media platforms and Web site uniques are now, alone, bigger than a imitation rate base. As they should be.”

Marie Claire and Glamour tied in a ad-page race, any posting 181 pages for their Mar issues. For Marie Claire, this will be a largest Mar emanate in a history, adult 31 percent contra final year, driven by a 25 percent arise in conform pages and a 30 percent boost in a beauty category. New advertisers embody Louis Vuitton, Bulgari, AG Adriano Goldschmied Jeans, MAC Cosmetics, Smashbox and Botox. Glamour reported a 9 percent increase, creation Mar a second-largest book in 20 years.

There were dual conform titles that didn’t transport so well: People StyleWatch and Lucky magazine. StyleWatch fell 7 percent in paging, to 135 pages. Lucky posted a 21 percent diminution in paging for March, to 106 pages. It’s misleading because a pretension posted such a thespian decrease, nonetheless this emanate was competing with editor in arch Brandon Holley’s initial emanate in Mar 2011. As with many magazines, beauty pages were adult though sell was down, with Target not promotion during a initial entertain and a Sears-Kmart business also down.

Justin Dean Thomas, Musician, Poet, Actor, D.J., Model



So you’re a musician.

I’m a musician and a poet.
I got a couple more titles, but, at the risk of sounding like a douchebag …

No judgment, I promise.
I’m an actor, a D.J.,
and a model as well. Those
are the douchebag ones.

What kind of music do you play?
My favorite is early rhythm and blues, and country. I think everything is predicated on that.

And the clothes?
As a kid,
I was really into Bo Diddley—the suits, the bow ties. I like a lot of fifties and sixties culture.
I remember watching old footage of Jackie Wilson.
I always thought he was real slick the way he moved.

Do you get a lot of comments on your look?
Yeah, but I was thinking about it the other day: It’s not a novelty to me or
an aesthetic that I want to create. It’s like, these
are the only colors I see.

Marissa Arterberry, Artist and Sales Clerk



What kind of art do you do?
I paint really brightly colored pictures of black women.

Where do you find your subjects?
They’re pretty much made up out of my head. I think of them as superhero goddesses.

Do they all look like you?
People always say they do, but sometimes they’re naked, so it’s kind of embarrassing.

Where do you do your painting?
My room. I don’t buy posters or anything; I just cram in as much of my
art as I can.

So you’re constantly surrounded
by superhero goddesses?

Yeah. They’re all very friendly-looking ladies, though, so it’s nice to have them all watching me.
