MarieClaire

Marie Claire is an international women's magazine that publishes fashion, beauty, health, and current affairs content. It originated in France in 1936, founded by the publisher Jean Prouvost as a general-interest magazine. Over time, Marie Claire evolved into a monthly publication with a focus on style and women's issues, combining trend reporting with reporting on politics, society, and culture.

The brand operates through a network of national editions licensed to local publishers. Editions are produced in many countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, India, and others, each adapting content to regional audiences. In addition to print, Marie Claire maintains a digital presence with websites and social media that publish editorial content, video features, and shopping.

Editorial stance tends to blend fashion coverage with features on empowerment, gender equality, health, and social issues affecting women. The magazine has published interviews with public figures, profiles of women leaders, and investigative pieces, while also covering celebrity fashion and beauty trends. Like other fashion and lifestyle titles, Marie Claire has faced criticism regarding beauty standards and representation, and editors periodically address these critiques through programmatic initiatives and feature stories.

Ownership and branding of the Marie Claire editions are managed by local licensing partners under the umbrella of the Marie Claire brand, ensuring a consistent editorial identity while allowing regional customization. The publication remains a prominent voice in fashion media, with a broad international readership and a growing digital footprint.
