The Vogue contents page spans two pages, separated with adverts, and each page is split into three sections: “cover stories”; “fashion” and “special features” on the first page and “vogue stars” or features; “beauty”; and “regulars” on the second. On the first contents page there is one image- that of supermodel Karlie Kloss. People reading this magazine would have interest in fashion on modelling, so might buy this magazine simply because there is an image of Karlie Kloss in it. There are two images on the second page – one to advertise an article in the magazine, one of the cover image without the text to show what the model is wearing because this is a fashion magazine so knows its audience will be interested in the styling.
The headings for each of the sections are in red, which is the most eye catching colour, so if someone was to flick through the magazine they would get a clear, quick overview of the magazine and its content. The images chosen also show this as they display the artistic, high fashion aspect to the magazine. The only other text in red is the date of the magazine.
The rest of the text is in black to stand out from the white page. The largest text is the title of the magazine, and it is written in the same font as the title on the front cover. The rest of the large text on the page is also in the same fronts used on the front cover. This establishes a house style layout that dominates the magazine. The page numbers are written before the article titles, and the article titles are italicised to stand out from the description of the article. The regular articles contain no brief overview of the article because it is assumed if you buy the magazine because of the regular features then you know the kind of things they contain.
