The in -house style on both the front cover and the contents page are very closely the same. the colours used are red. pinks and a light grey. However, this magazine had contents pages rather than just one. The typography and the anchorage of the"contents"serif font as the masthead. The pull quote next to the photo is connoting that people that have a colour have been established throughout society as well as history.  This representation is shown though the different types of clothing shown on each model as well as the colours being efficiently represented. The contents page is set out in three separate columns. This is an organised and efficient way to construct the layout of the contents page. The contents page uses three secondary images that are spread out on the page with the main image on the top right hand side of the contents page. There is a use of a turn and a plug at the bottom of the page.
