Condé Nast Italia To Discontinue Four Publications
Christian Combs For L’Uomo Vogue July 2017.
It’s the end of an era for four Italian publications.
Condé Nast Italia will discontinue Vogue Italia’s sister publications L’Uomo Vogue, Vogue Bambini, Vogue Sposa and Vogue Gioiello, according to national media reports.
The company will continue to publish the Vogue Italia main title, which was re-launched this month under the direction of editor-in-chief Emanuele Farneti, who, in January, succeeded the late Franca Sozzani.
According to WWD, “The magazines’ closure will result in cuts in staff, the number of which could not immediately be learned. Staff being laid off are said to be offered a severance package of 40 months’ pay.”
“In addition, market sources contend that in the next few months Condé Nast will start cutting an employee each month.”
