Numéro

Numéro is an international fashion magazine published by Paul-Emmanuel Reiffers. It has a circulation of 80,000, and the French edition reached its 100th issue in February 2009. The magazine covers international fashion, beauty, design, health, architecture and decor, as well as spreads on trendsetting celebrities.

==History== Numéro was founded in 1998 by Elisabeth Djian, the previous fashion director of the obscure Jill magazine, who is now ''Numéro's editor-in-chief. Djian developed the magazine as a result of her disappointment of magazines that did not cater to her interests or women like her. When asked why she created Numéro, Djian commented, "I was bored with magazines that told me how to seduce a man. I wanted to create this magazine for an intelligent, smart woman who wants to read about art, design, music: not about stupidity – creams that take away wrinkles, you know, which is stupid." Since the magazine launched, Djian has also created a menswear title of the magazine called Numéro Homme, and one for contemporary art called Numéro Art.
