Hearst Reduces Harper's Bazaar Publishing Frequency to 10 Issues Per Year
Posted on September 21, 2011
Heart is going to reduce the number of issues of Harper's Bazaar it published in 2012 to just 10 issues. The frequency change follows Hearst's acquisition of Elle from Lagardere SCA earlier this year.
Harper's Bazaar will skip issue in the summer and at year's end. It will publish a June-July summer issue and a December-January issue in 2012. WWD reports that Harper's Bazaar will also trim size.
Media Post notes that Harper's Bazaar shrank from 12 issues to 11 issues this year, so next year will be the second consecutive reduction in frequency for the fashion magazine.
