Teen Vogue

What Teen Vogue does

Teen Vogue is a U.S.-based digital media publication focused on teenagers and young adults, owned outright by Condé Nast and operating from New York. Founded in 2003 as a spin-off of Vogue and transitioned to a fully digital model in 2020, the publication delivers free editorial content spanning fashion, beauty, culture, entertainment, politics, and identity/wellness across teenvogue.com, a daily email newsletter, social channels (Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, Pinterest), and the recurring Teen Vogue Fest live-event series. Following a November 2025 Condé Nast restructuring, Teen Vogue was absorbed into Vogue.com's editorial structure under Chloe Malle, with the brand retaining a distinct identity while losing approximately 70% of its staff and its editor-in-chief.

Emerging players

• Paper Magazine: Independent digital culture and fashion publication known for youth-driven, culturally provocative editorial. Comparable to Teen Vogue in tone and demographic, though smaller in scale.
• Galore: Digital media brand targeted at Gen Z women covering fashion, beauty, celebrities, and culture. Niche competitor in the same teen/young-woman editorial space, though with a smaller footprint.

Direct peers

• i-D Magazine: Vice Media-owned digital fashion and culture publication with strong youth appeal and editorial influence in the Gen Z/streetwear space — directly comparable in editorial voice and audience.
• Dazed: Digital fashion and culture magazine with youth-focused, culturally progressive editorial voice, often covering identity and politics alongside style — closely aligned with Teen Vogue's editorial positioning.
• Refinery29: Digital media brand targeting millennial and Gen Z women with content spanning fashion, beauty, culture, and politics — overlapping Teen Vogue's editorial mix and demographic.
• Nylon: Digital-first fashion, beauty, and culture magazine targeting a young, style-conscious audience. Closely overlaps Teen Vogue's editorial mix and audience demographic.
• Seventeen: Hearst-owned teen/young adult digital and former print magazine covering fashion, beauty, celebrities, and lifestyle. The most direct competitor to Teen Vogue in the teen-girl media category.

Broad incumbents

• Vogue: Condé Nast's flagship and Teen Vogue's parent brand. Now houses Teen Vogue content following the November 2025 integration; comparable as the broader luxury fashion/culture platform absorbing Teen Vogue's audience.
• BuzzFeed: Large digital media publisher targeting Gen Z and millennials with news, entertainment, and lifestyle content. Competes for the same audience attention and ad dollars, though with a broader, less fashion-focused offering.
• Cosmopolitan: Hearst's flagship women's lifestyle magazine with a broad multi-generational audience and significant digital reach. Overlaps with Teen Vogue on younger-skewing fashion, beauty, and celebrity coverage but targets a wider age range.
