Beginning with the cover, the April 2014 edition of Woman This Month is an issue of many firsts. Our first illustrated cover, designed by our creative director Maryam Toorani, reflects the bride of today and introduces you to one of our biggest annual features — weddings!
In conjunction with the bridal special, we test the waters with our first lingerie feature. From what to wear to look flawless on your wedding day to best buys this season, Fernanda Langhammer
has put together a number of interesting articles for you in this issue.
The third ‘first’ is the introduction of Blips in Woman This Month. The three-step graphic below explains what you need to do to add a digital element to your reading experience. Flip over to our community page to view how this print-to-digital technology works and to watch our first video, which discusses migrant workers’ issues.
In this issue, Simi Kamboj speaks to Anna Thackray, who authored Bahrain’s first graphic novel — the first of a trilogy. Also, our fashion correspondents in New York and Milan take Woman This Month to respective Fashion Weeks for the very first time.
Happy reading!
