ABOUT V MAGAZINE
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. V is a magazine about fashion with a capital F and all the things that go with it: art, music, film, architecture…you name it. Before V was put into print, we thought of it this way: Imagine a wall of forty-four televisions, each tuned to a different station. Today you would need a wall of 250 televisions, but it's still a good way to think of the insane and unpredictable mix of people, places, and things that V celebrates on its pages. V is a place where uptown meets downtown, celebrities mingle with total unknowns, and high art converses with underground culture. Chic, wacky, fun, fabulous…in a letter: V!
ABOUT VMAN
VMAN is the ultimate destination for men’s fashion. Reflecting the global VMAN reader, V’s glossy masculine counterpart delivers an unparalleled mix of trend reports, service-based coverage, and celebrity profiles. Since launching in 2003, this long-running men’s resource has continued to showcase the best of menswear and offer a curated display of art, film, design, travel, music, grooming, and sports.
ABOUT GEN V
Small magazine, BIG personality. As the younger sibling of V and VMAN, GEN V shares the same DNA as its older siblings-having both been regarded as vanguards for photography, fashion, music, and culture-coming in with a more youthful lens. This editorial offshoot strives for individuality via an unbounded exploration of self-expression that Gen-Z + Gen-Alpha has become known for. As a nonstop festival of artistry, beauty, and inclusivity, GEN V's issues are fueled by a new era of imagination and are action-packed with the new and the now, ready to take on the world.
