When the team A La Mode Management, Blaque Matter Creative, and Why Blue Matters® arrived at the idea to put together the WBM/AUTR: Blue{tiful} magazine, we were inspired

immensely. As a team who not only as individuals, but also collectively has spent a great deal of time and has acquired a significant amount experience in entertainment, fashion, fitness, and music, including marketing for all those industries, it only made sense to for us develop a publication around the people and lifestyles we have grown to like, love, and appreciate. !

quintessential characteristics behind the beauty of select individuals who shine bright in the real world as well as in the digital world of Instagram.

Blue{tiful} demographicsVestiphiles near and abroad account for an influx of 400,000+ people annually who participate in the events that NY Fashion week is comprised of.

“In 2012, the New York City Economic Development Corporation (EDC) analyzed the benefits that NYFW brought to the city and discovered that about $6 million is spent on hotels, $7 million in retail stores, $9 million on restaurants and $12 million on leasing venues for the week. Lincoln Center alone generates $40 million directly, according to a report by Fordham University. Overall, visitor spending accounts for about $532 million, leading to about $865 million in economic impact over the course of the year” (Source: International Business Times).

Because of the excitement and anticipation that each season of NYFW brings, the release of WBM/AUTR: Blue{tiful} couldn’t be more timely.
