Seventeen (American magazine)

Seventeen is an American fashion magazine headquartered in New York City and owned by Hearst Magazines. The publication targets a demographic of 10-to-25-year-old women and girls. Established in 1944, the magazine originally aimed to inspire teenage girls to become model workers and citizens. However, it soon shifted its focus to a more fashion- and romance-oriented approach while still emphasizing the importance of self-confidence in young men and women. Alongside its primary themes, Seventeen also reports the latest news about celebrities.
