Men's Vogue was a monthly men's magazine that covered fashion, design, art, culture, sports and technology. The premier issue was August 2005. On 30 October 2008Condé Nast announced that they intended to fold the magazine intoVogue proper as a bi-annual subscriber's supplement. However, the magazine has ceased to be published since its original folding date.
The magazine featured a profile ofGeorge Clooney[1] in its inaugural issue. Since then, other stars includingRoger Federer,[2]Tiger Woods,[3]Michael Phelps,Denzel Washington,[4]Kiefer Sutherland,Viggo Mortensen,[5]Tony Blair[6] andBarack Obama[7] have been featured on the cover. The magazine received praise[8] for its December 2007 issue, withWill Smith[9] on the cover, for celebrating African-American men.
The magazine featured celebrities, athletes, powerbrokers, and lesser known men of style. Areas covered included art and architecture, travel and food, politics and finance, books and sports, custom tailoring and fine watches, and other topics. The magazine added a tag line below its logo in November 2008 (its final issue), "Style is how you live."
The magazine presented a yearly list of its chosen American visionaries.[10] Recipients of the 2007 recognition includedRalph Lauren,[11] actorOwen Wilson and directorWes Anderson.[12] It also featured profiles in each issue of everyday stylish and successful men in its Life Studies section.[13]
