Fashion Magazine website investigation
USING WIX
I choose to go to the Fashion and beauty templates.
Most of the templates were aimed at beauty-makeup and fashion blogs or online fashion stores.
I choose the template: Small Brand.
The tools available to change and personalize the site were very accessible.
I have looked into the tools available and I tried to give my site a personal touch.
I looked at all the tools and used most of them just to get used to WIX, for when I will do my actual site for my fashion magazine.
It took me 15-20 min to create the home page as you can see above.
I had to change the title and add social media links as well as change the content.
The gallery at the top was a nice option, I saw many websites of fashion magazines having a slider gallery so I added one myself. I used the photographs available from WIX for this.
I went into a simpler version of my initial idea, I wanted to create a flexible slider to show the main picture of the articles that are part of the (TOP STORIES) but WIX did not have that option so I kept thing simple.
Furthermore, the post in the middle is part of the top stories which was inspired from the Vogue website. I had to delete the video that came with the template and replace it with a Versace Fashion show on YouTube.
It was harder than I expected but it was a nice challenge.
***However, this is the first time I am trying Wix since updated, and this is just an investigation. I will not use this as my final website.***
