Vogue Germany relaunched as a modern national edition in 1979.
The German title had an earlier history: a German-language Vogue had been published before the Second World War. The 1979 relaunch restored Vogue’s presence in the German market and connected it to the magazine’s postwar international expansion.
Vogue Germany is published in German and is headquartered in Munich. It covers fashion, design, beauty, culture, and influential figures in Germany and the wider German-speaking market.
This date is sometimes confused with the launch years of other European editions. Vogue Spain began in 1988, while Vogue Italia dates from 1964, making Germany’s modern relaunch earlier than both Spain’s edition and several later European titles.
