Net-a-Porter will have a printed fashion magazine in 2013

Most magazines are going from the printed version to the online version to keep up with the technology. But Net-a-Porter might is thinking different. 



The world's first online luxury fashion boutique will launch a print magazine within the next twelve months, according to the company’s CEO Mark Sebba.
One of the premier online fashion destinations, Net-a-Porter has announced that it will be jumping over from digital to produce a print fashion magazine.
Speaking at the Business Leaders Network’s ‘Making it Mobile’ event, Net-a-Porter’s CEO Mark Sebba announced that the online luxury retail portal would be launching a new standalone print magazine in 2013.
“Traditional publishers always say that we are lucky for being born in a digital age and don’t have a legacy of print. But we still see it as important. It isn’t a secret that Net-a-Porter will be publishing a major fashion magazine within the next 12 months or so.” said Sebba, reported Wired magazine.
Like younger brother Mr Porter, Net-a-Porter currently has a strong editorial content offer, including a dedicated weekly magazine which is accessed via the Net-a-Porter site. 
According to Sebba, the site “started its life as a magazine that sold clothes.” The company hopes to capitalise on its six million monthly visitors by enticing them with a physical print magazine sold at newsstands.
Back in 2011 Net-a-Porter featured a print magazine, which could be ordered online (sadly no longer available), and which was also distributed in luxury locations like hotels and with a small number of corporate customers. 
Mr Porter has previously launched Suit Yourself (June 2012) and The Tux (released November 2012) apps, for iPad/iPhone, but it was not clear if the menswear wing of the company would also be offering a print version of its online content.

A Londoner's Beauty Summer Kit

Image
The Post Festival Recovery Kit by Hayley Cheval Gloucester Park has a Boots nearby. We wait all year for the summer to enjoy the best of the open air. But staying more outside means more time standing up, less sleep, more time in the sun and a lot more walking. And that can make us look tired... which is not at all the face of summer. London beauty queen +Hayley Carr  set up what she calls a "post festival recovery kit", as in London summer = music festivals everywhere (and we love it).  But we thought this selection is also good for every summer event, perfect to make you look fresh all season long.
