Fashion And Lifestyle Magazines Cover Design – 45 Examples

You probably thought that designing a magazine cover is simple. Guess what. It’s not. The easiest task is to have the required elements.

Magazines Cover elements

Designing the cover in order to have a certain look and style is the tricky thing. In this article you’ll see different styles from different magazines. The magazines tend to keep the same style of covers for a long time. The easiest way to observe the difference in style between two different magazines is by analyzing the way a person looks in each of them (Amanda Seyfried, for example).

Another interesting thing about magazine covers is the typography. If you’re the typophile kind of person, you’ll surely love the chance to work your magic. Be careful, though. Simple and intelligent typography is preferred instead of the rich and cocky one found in posters or infographics.
