A high quality and engaging magazine for high flying City women
Naked Creativity were commissioned to design and manage the production of Cutting Edge magazine for the awards organisation Women in the City.
“Selecting the right image for an article in a magazine or any piece of design work is crucial as there’s always a fine line between funny and cheesy! At Naked Creativity we select images that compliment a design to reinforce it’s message. Whether this is done with a stock photo or illustration, we realise that a picture can speak a thousand words!”

Cutting Edge is a high quality magazine aimed at a target audience of high-flying women, working in the City. Each edition contains informative stories which keep readers engaged and raise interest in Women in the City events, whilst exploring the wider issues affecting women working in the City of London. In creating each issue of the magazine, we are responsible for all elements of the design from art direction and image sourcing to liaising with advertisers and sponsors.
“A big thanks to the Naked Creativity team for your work. As usual you came up trumps, interpreting our needs in an innovative and original way and to deadline too. Our clients have been very complimentary!”
Roger Hacker, Women in the City
Naked Creativity also work closely with the contributors and editors in order to ensure that the production of each magazine runs efficiently and smoothly. When producing a magazine, planning is essential, so the first step involves creating a pagination. This details the order of the content, so that the ‘flow’ of articles and adverts can be planned. It also allows Naked Creativity to see what’s missing, who to contact and if every page has been filled.
The result of this process is a trendy, modern magazine that is suited to the target readers with all three editions have been well received, impressing the Women in the City audience.
