Fashion magazine Vogue hit the newsstands in Greece on Sunday, relaunched after a seven-yr absence as publishers bet that the United States’ economic recovery after a debt crisis will revive an urge for food for smooth fashion and lifestyle prints.
Ogue Greece will be the posh magazine’s 26th worldwide version, run using a 29-year-old editor-in-leader, Thaleia Karafyllidou.
The style bible’s writer Conde Nast International has teamed up with Katherine Ekdoseis, and the monthly version could be dispensed with Sunday’s Kathimerini newspaper, which is celebrating 100 years in print in 2019.
It will even hit newsstands in Greece and Cyprus.
“Dear Vogue Greece, welcome returned,” Anna Wintour, Vogue editor-in-chief 1988, wrote the Greek comeback version titled “Eyes on the Future” starred Bella Hadid on its cover.
“Your return after years of absence fills us with joy. Greece confronted troubles and lived dramatic moments; I can simplest consider how tough it was. However, the signs of restoration are seen, even here in America.”
Vogue Hellas first came out in Greece in March 2000, posted by way of Lyberis Publications, one of the kings of glossy magazines in the 1990s that still produced popular, fashion-placing titles, including Status, Life & Style, and Glamour.
Lyberis went bankrupt in 2012 when marketing dried up at some point during the financial disaster that brought the world’s unemployment to nearly 28 percent, dampening appetites for high fashion and away-of-lifeblood.
The relaunch will even have a virtual edition as it bets on it going back into a magazine market harm by way of declining readership and advertisers.
Greece’s healing after a lengthy recession that shrank its financial system using 1 / 4 remains heading in the right direction. In the last 12 months, the economy increased by 1.9 percent while unemployment has come right down to 18 rate.
