“Teen Vogue is the young person’s guide to saving the world. We aim to educate, enlighten, and empower our audience to create a more inclusive environment (both on- and offline) by amplifying the voices of the unheard, telling stories that normally go untold, and providing resources for teens looking to make a tangible impact in their communities.”
Representation
They challenge traditional stereotypes, Teen Vogue highlights the difference in beauty rather the idea of fitting in and making yourself looking perfect. However, it can be seen as reinforcing traditional stereotypes as the models wear makeup and are photo shopped. Left wing view. Feministic views.

Identity
Gauntlett had already developed his fluidity of identity concept by the time Teen Vogue was first published, but the magazine was still positioning the audience to accept a conventional view of femininity and beauty by focusing on physical appearance rather than emphasising a message of empowerment.
It is a worry that this is harming teens mental health.
