120 Years Of ‘Vogue,’ Online For $1,575

paid content reporting:
In fashion, they say, what goes around comes around. Now designers, fashionistas and historians—as well as advertisers and the simply curious—can browse Vogue’s new digital archive for inspiration. It contains every page of every U.S. issue of Vogue published since the magazine launched in 1892, indexed and searchable. A yearly individual subscription is $1,575.
The archive, which is entirely web-based, contains over 425,000 images, 300,000 ads and 100,000 articles, according to the WSJ.
Subscribers can clip, print and share content, but “anyone who sees a link on social media would encounter a paywall if not a member,” Matt Dellinger, director of the Vogue Archive, told Folio. Members can “create folders for collaborative projects, which are accessible by other Vogue Archive members.”
WGSN, an online trend-analysis and research firm based in London, is managing subscriptions. The archive is also hosted on ProQuest for library and academic use. Business can sign up for multi-user Vogue Archive subscriptions. Subscribers to the print edition of the magazine will receive access to some of Vogue Archive’s content next year.
