Magazine Ads

The ads that I selected are perfume ads that were featured in Glamour Magazine. The audience of Glamour is strictly women, and in my opinion ages ranging from 18 to 25. I would say the target market is trendy women who enjoy nice things. The majority of ads in Glamour are very well known designers.

The Michael Kors Ad-
-Woman wearing very revealing sweater
-Wispy, wind blown dirty blonde hair
-Perfume bottle in the bottom right hand corner
-Woman wearing gold watch on the left wrist
-Bold white traditional “Michael Kors” logo in the bottom center
Juicy Couture Ad-
-White furniture in the background
-Blonde haired girl, green eyes, messy hair pulled back
-Black puffy, shear dress
-Holding large signature Juicy perfume bottle with large pink bow
-Scent sticker on the bottle, shiny top coat
-Large hot pink “Viva La Juicy” on the bottom center
-Traditional Juicy Couture logo small underneath Viva La Juicy in white
I chose these two ads because they are both two of my favorite designers and I have both of the items that they are advertising. They both appeal to women who want to seem sexy. I think the Michael Kors ad is more directed towards a softer side of the market, while the Juicy ad is has a harder look. The stereotypes are very obvious, women who like nice things and want to seem sexier than they are.
