Project #2: Magazine Spreads. post-2

For my magazine I will be drawing influences from the United State's GQ magazine, a hybrid of the Supreme book #4, which is an American clothing company which published a book in a Japanese setting, and finally Japanese "look book" magazines. All three of these magazines draws on the concept of fashion or the way in which men dress. All of the magazines showcase an array of different outfits and how they work or don't work. They are also drenched with influences from pop culture, which shape a lot of the clothing being used and showcased in the magazines. 

One thing I admire about these magazines, is the amount of images dedicated to showing different styles of clothing and how to wear them. Something I am not very fond of is the organization. I believe there could be a more concise way of displaying images and information. With my magazine I want to have a better breakdown of sections and what they are, so the audience of 18-30 are not enveloped with a massive amount of information that it reads to quickly and not remembered. When the audience reads, I want them to be inspired and think out loud. To look at the entire magazine and think of it as a work of art that helps them enable their lives. But, is it possible to make something so visually appealing, concise and informative? Will the style and visuals of the magazine be too distracting?

Ultimately I want my magazine to focus on individual style. I know I will need to make this magazine very concise and specific in order for the content to make sense and interesting. Let's hope for the best.
