1. Codes & Conventions of Fashion
Accessories Magazine
“Shoes & Bags”

2. After the research of the Fashion Accessories Magazine. I’ve figured out that most of the shoes
and bags magazine front covers are of two types. All the codes and conventions of these
magazines are discussed below :•
Most of the shoes and bags magazines have a single colored background. Whether it’s a
model featuring or just the accessories are displayed.

3. •
Fashion accessories magazines usually have a lot of cover lines on the front cover that are
telling not just about the shoes and bags but also about other accessories.

4. •
Along with cover lines, the magazines where the model is being featured, the shoes and bags
and other accessories are being highlighted.

5. •
Front magazine covers that are related to shoes and bags are of two types. First, there are
covers that have the accessories scattered all over the place.

6. Secondly there are covers where the featured model is wearing the accessories.

7. •
The masthead of most of the accessory magazines are placed at the top of the page and is
mostly in a bright color that goes well with the color of the accessories and the cover lines.
•
In some front covers the color of the masthead is that of the theme of the cover.

8. •
As for the lighting, the magazines that have the accessories displayed on the front cover
usually are low key images so that the accessories stand out.
•
The magazines where the models are carrying the accessories are usually high key images.

9. •
The angles and shots taken for these magazines are mid-shots, full shots and even mid-shots
that are focusing on the lower side.
