Flare (magazine)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Flare is a Canadian fashion magazine. It is owned by Rogers Communications.
Flare was formerly Miss Chatelaine magazine until 1979 when it had a reinvention. It has labelled itself "Canada's Fashion magazine". It celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary in 2004. Along with Canadian or wearable fashion, the magazine covers health and beauty available for Canadian women. Its aim is to focus on Canadian content as it tries to focus on Canadian fashion, models and stars.
It has used Canadian models such as Lisa Cant and Heather Marks for their photoshoots along with many other up-and-comers.
Past editors-in-chief have included Bonnie Fuller and Suzanne Boyd. The position is currently held by Lisa Tant.
The magazine has featured Wayne Gretzky's future wife Janet Jones on the cover and in the magazine in the 1980s. Their daughter was featured on the cover and inside the magazine in an issue in August 2005.
