MASTHEAD 
The masthead stands out and follows conventions as 
it is positioned in the top centre of the page. The font 
is also the same that is used on the masthead of the 
magazine which follows through the house style. The 
black on white theme also helps it to stand out and 
keeps it very simple and easy to understand/follow. 
SUBSCRIPTION 
The subscription section stands out because the bright 
colours of the magazine images contrast the black and 
white theme that goes through the webpage. The blue 
hyperlinked button also contrasts further against the pink 
house style of the magazine. It is typical of the webpage 
to promote the magazine and promote people to 
subscribe. 
SELL LINES 
The sell lines are important because they highlight 
the articles on the site and draw in the readers. This 
sell line is modern because it includes the ‘@’ sign 
which shows that It is modern and in touch with the 
21st century's trends. The story of fashion week is 
very recent as well and consumers will be intrigued. 
NAVIGATION BAR 
This is a very important to have on a site as it guides the 
consumer around the webpage. The bar is very clear 
and it is positioned underneath the masthead which 
makes it easy to find. The font also contrasts the big 
round font used on the masthead which helps it to stand 
out more. There is also fewer options to make it similar. 
NEWS UPDATES 
This is an interactive 
section which keeps users 
up to date with the recent 
stories of the celebrity and 
fashion worlds. It also 
allows more info into 
celebrities minds by 
showing their opinions. 
Keeping users up to date 
highlights that they are 
dedicated to updating the 
site to prevent them from 
possibly falling behind on 
stories and trends.
IMAGES OF CLOTHING 
The images are up to date pictures of trends from the latest 
seasons of high street stores such as top shop and river 
island. The images are very clear and stand out because of 
the simple lay out as there is no background images to take 
away from the product and this allows all of your attention to 
be focused on the clothing. 
ADVERTISMENT 
The advertisement is linked to the theme of the 
website which is fashion. New look is a popular high 
street store so the advertisement fits well onto the 
‘fashion’ segment of the site. This is important 
because an advertisement from Nissan would not be 
fitting on the page or be suitable. 
ARTICLE’S 
These are important on the page because they show that it 
is the website for a magazine and provide the consumers 
with something to read and enjoy on the page. The stories 
are fitting for a fashion magazine, ‘best dressed’ and 
‘fashion week’ both imply clothing is involved. The stories 
are also up to date with modern trends. 
IMAGES 
The images both show celebrity fashion icons which 
draws in the readers interest. They both also have 
elements of red in them from the red background to 
the red carpet which keeps a colour theme going 
and links the pictures together. It makes them easier 
on the eye than two clashing colours would. 
COLOUR SCHEME 
The black and white theme 
is continued onto this page 
which helps to keep it 
simple and light. The 
lightness creates a brighter 
tenor on the magazine 
which is important because 
it appears friendlier than it 
would if the background 
was black or grey. It also 
appears very sleek and 
modern.
