ELLE MAN: new for men

ELLE MAN: new for men

ELLE, THE LEADING WOMENS UP-MARKET MEDIA BRAND, CONTINUES ITS EXPANSION.

After the recent launch of ELLE in Australia, bringing the number of global editions up to 44, and building on the success of the 11 already existing editions of ELLE MEN, particularly in Asia, the ELLE brand is now launching a new spinoff in France: ELLE MAN, a magazine for men featuring the latest trends in style, culture and society.

ELLE MAN REFLECTS THE IMAGE OF TODAYS HASSLE-FREE MAN who has a style of his own, likes fashion without getting carried away, has a sense of taste, and likes to keep informed and enjoy himself. The tone is original, off-beat and quintessentially male.

ELLE MAN IS BROKEN DOWN INTO FIVE MAIN CATEGORIES:

Choices: a collection of articles combining culture, lifestyle, politics and society - a mix of stimulating information reflecting the spirit of the times.

Style: trend analysis, product presentations, and tips and recommendations.

Journalism: special reports produced by original contributors (Anna Cabana, Marc Dugain, Mark Alizart, Laurent Goumarre, Mehdi and Badrou, Augustin Trapenard and Joann Sfar), portraits and analysis of fiction.

Fashion: three series signed by prestigious photographers presenting a diversity of styles.

Lifestyle: practical tips on where to go, where to dine, what to do with the kids and how to go "geek chic".

ELLE MAN WILL BE HOSTED ON THE ELLE.FR WEBSITE in a section devoted entirely to men. This space, enriched with new content daily, will disseminate the ELLE MAN spirit on the Internet.

According to Valerie Toranian, editorial director: "Men are changing; they consume differently and are increasingly affirming their tastes and identity. Designing a new magazine to accompany these changes is an exciting challenge. ELLE MAN is a stylish magazine for all styles of men, a magazine without hang-ups, in tune with the times, that transcends divisions, stereotypes and typologies."

According to Edouard Dutour, editor-in-chief: "The best revenge would be to see a woman leaning over the shoulder of her companion reading ELLE MAN. ELLE has a magical dimension that ELLE MAN would do well to appropriate: it aims to be a unique but universal magazine, like nothing else, but intended for everyone."
