Vogue and GQ publisher Conde Nast has today launched a new London-based B2B title for the fashion, beauty and luxury industries.
Vogue Business will publish as a newsletter aimed at fashion industry professionals. It will have an editorial focus on the analysis of fashion industry trends, how global politics impacts on the sector and technology that could change how fashion operates.

“No one else in the world employs more fashion journalists in more places than we do.
“Our global network of journalists, digital editors and researchers are immersed in the relevant trends on all inhabited continents, giving the team of Vogue Business access to an unparalleled depth of knowledge, from local design trends to changes in manufacturing, training, technology and distribution.”
Conde Nast said the fashion B2B was “prioritising high engagement with a select audience” in its decision to begin as a newsletter, rather than a website seeking maximum reach.
The Vogue Business team is headquartered in London and being treated as a “wholly separate entity” with an editorial team independent of other Conde Nast brands.
The B2B newsletter will feature contributions from Conde Nast journalists across 29 territories, according to its website.
