Amidst all the vast changes in the magazine industry, some things never change -- such as Vogue topping the September ad page count with what Charlotte Cowles terms "one of
those phone-book-size issues that your poor postman has to abandon on your doorstep after futile attempts to stuff it into your mailbox."
Well, we're not sure what decade
she's living in when it comes to phone books, but we know our postman won't be able to stuff Vogue's latest issue, with 665 ad pages and untold editorial ones, into our mail slot.
Sporting Jennifer Lawrence on the cover, its ad page total is up just 1% from last year -- but still tops InStyle's 445 page total by almost 50%. InStyle just edges out
Elle's 442 pages for second place among the fashion mags. Overall, all 11 major fashion pubs were up in ad pages for this September, led by Glamour's 18%
increase, W’s 17% and Cosmo’s 16%.
