 W Mag: Worth the cost ? May 30, 2003
24 out of 31 found this review helpful
I personally had never read this maginze until a friend sent a subscription to me. I don't understand why she bought it for me. This magnize features three things: clothes, accesories, and stories of the rich and famous. The clothing and accesories are all designer, which is great if you are into super-expensive clothing. Also the outfits shown are ridicius. They look the outfits out of some cheesy B- movie, or possibly a bunch of mops sewn together. I doubt anyone can really tell what they are. The only other thing in this magazines are stories of the super elite celebrities and royalty, which are incredibly boring. Please don't waste your money on this magazine, it's not worth it.

I absolutely love W magazine which is filled with clothing to dream about, accessories to die for and fabulous photography all printed in oversized format. I'm a t-shirt and jeans guy that loves great photography. The fashion layouts are frequently so stunning that they could be framed for fashion art! From hip trendy to haute couture, affordable to "if-you-have-to-ask-you-can't afford-it"...it's all contained within the pages of W.
 Fashion Advertisements December 5, 2002

This magazine has excellent fashion photography. Mostly this is in the form of advertisements, which take up the first 175 pages and many more throughout. The pages are almost twice the size of a standard magazine, which leaves room for more artistic ads. The articles, I find hard to relate to or take seriously. To me, they seem more like tabloid tales of sordid love affairs and over-hyped parties than any kind of actual informative articles. For a magazine that is touted as a fashion industry standard, I expected to see many more articles about fashion, styles, and designers rather than Hollywood gossip. The photographs and fashion advertisements really are great, and I believe they would be the most useful aspect of this magazine for people interested in fashion.
It's Quite Possibly the World's Fashion Bible. September 2, 2002

"W" magazine is such an important staple in the world of fashion, that even guys like me can't help but read it. To call this a women's magazine would really be unfair, for it offers in-depth articles on the fashion industry, profiles on celebrities, and an excellent supplement for men published on a quarterly basis. This men's supplement offers fashion info that's hip and contemporary, but not trendy enough to spook the average American male. As with all fashion magazines, "W" could feature more models of color on their cover, but that's a relatively small gripe compared to the wealth of good stuff this magazine offers. Overall, bravo the folks at "W" a job well done!
FOR THE HIGH END OF LIFE March 28, 2002

One of my former friends got me hooked on this magazine and I do enjoy it. I enjoy reading about the designers and their lifestyles. What I like the most is the page after page of interesting and beautiful people in their clothes. The articles are in depth and not usually everyone's cup of tea. There is one section called SUZY which is okay at best. That section is geared towards the "upper crust" (in my opinion).
I like reading the articles about the "empire" of fashion such as Yves Saint Laurent, Ralph Lauren, Tom Ford, Gucci, Versace, etc. I love how these people have set the world of fashion on fire and people like me enjoy what is out on the market.
I enjoy fashion and the fashion trends. I tend to shop at Versace, Hermes, Ralph Lauren and Neiman Marcus. I like to keep on top of the world of fashion. I consider myself a slightly above average fashion expert. I know what looks good and how it should be worn. Granted I am not that good at telling the difference between designer fashions, but I try.
I recommend this magazine for those who yern to be part of the "fashion conscience" elite. This magazine is not just for women. Even men, like myself, can appreciate beauty in all of its forms: including haute couture and the runway.
