V Magazine was launched in September 1999 as the younger sibling publication to the limited-edition quarterly Visionaire. If Visionaire is a couture book, V is ready-to-wear. V is large-format and visually-driven, international in scope and collaborative in spirit.

It is edited by Stephen Gan with a focus on art, film, music, and fashion. V is noted for its extreme and artful fashion spreads by the world's greatest photographers, as well as its reportage of cultural figures and global youth culture. Contributors include Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, Hedi Slimane, Mario Testino, Mario Sorrenti, and Karl Lagerfeld. Interview subjects have included Joan Didion, Salman Rushdie, Robert Altman, Brooke Shields, and Norman Mailer.

V recently launched an offshoot called VMAN.

In 2005, 7L and Steidl published V Best: Five Years of V Magazine, chronicling the seminal first five years of the publication.

Sportswear International stands apart from other fashion magazines as the only global industry publication that focuses on — and truly understands — smart, young, sophisticated, casual, contemporary style. Providing inside information, stunning fashion shoots and invaluable insight into the workings and offerings of an ever-changing industry, Sportswear International is THE must-read style bible of anyone, anywhere who works in the casual fashion sector.

From our permanent offices in Milan, Frankfurt New York and Moscow, and with a team of global correspondents that spans from Shanghai and Sao Paulo to Tokyo, London, Paris and Berlin, we bring international fashion and style news from the world's streets, catwalks, fairs and showrooms directly to our readers — giving them the knowledge to make informed, business-boosting decisions and truly inspired creative ones.

Bursting with trend reports, stories about the industry's top shops and most influential players and labels, inspirational photo shoots, and in-depth examinations of specific sectors, markets and territories, Sportswear International's six annual issues — each one is presented in an oversized, eye-catching glossy format — and yearly specialty supplements serve as must-have tools for thousands of fashion insiders worldwide. Why? Because no other magazine brings global fashion to them as well as we do.

Founded in 1975 as a European trade publication for the emerging casual fashion market, Sportswear International launched a separate North American edition five years later. In 2002, the two titles merged into today's single global edition to better reflect fashion's growing internationalism. Now distributed on all six developed continents, Sportswear International remains the premier publication about young, casual, contemporary fashion. With more than 30 years of reporting experience, it's the only magazine of its kind.

Inspired by the priestesses of Vesta, Vestal is an online magazine that focuses on women's fashion and beauty.

At Vestal Magazine we are devoted to the cultivation of creativity by providing a platform for talents in photography, modeling, styling, and arts. It is our aim to provide a fresh alternative to traditional fashion publications and represent the changing face of fashion and photography.

Icon Magazine is a bi-monthly magazine set up in 2005 by ex-professional footballers Tim Sherwood and Jamie Redknapp along with Redknapp's wife Louise. The magazine is the first venture of Redknapp Publications and its readership is exclusive as it is not sold in shops and it is aimed at a celebrity readership. Originally intended to be just for professional footballers, it has now branched out to many other international sports people as well as television personalities, actors and selected first class airport lounges. Official readership currently stands at around 25,000.

The magazine has four section StyleIcon, FashionIcon, LifestyleIcon and TravelIcon. Jamie himself has conducted interviews of A list sports stars for the cover articles. The magazine has a cover price of £6 but celebrity subscribers do not officially have to pay for it. Past individual issues can be brought for £15 on the official website.

In March 2008 it was revealed in The Sun newspaper that the magazine had hit financial difficulties and was losing £85,000 a year. A former worker for the magazine said “They are so busy with their celebrity lives and their children, they haven’t got time to do everything they want to do at Icon.”

In August 2008, two pioneers of men's magazines in the UK and USA, Andy Clerkson and Ed Needham took on the editorial direction of the magazine. Andy Clerkson was General Manager of Maxim Magazine USA (2001-2004) and editorial director of Dennis Publishing Inc (2004-2006). Between 1996 and 2006, Ed Needham was the editor of FHM magazine in the UK and USA, Managing editor of Rolling Stone and Editor in Chief of Maxim USA. Clerkson and Needham's publishing company, Grand Parade produces ICON under contract.
