This is a double page that has been used in Vibe magazine. There has been many different effects used in order to draw an audience in to read the article.
When first looking at the double page, the first thing that is going to be seen is the blue and bold writing saying 'Solange Knowles' due to her being the main feature of the article. If people are unaware who she is this will then let them see who she is which may lead to them being interested about her causing them to purchase the magazine.
Like I have said before the typical colours used in R and B magazines are red, black and white and those are three colours that have been used once again. The dress being red may symbolise many different things, the dominance that Solange has as an artist, it may also be showing connotations of danger. Due to everything else being in black and whet apart from the dress it makes it stand out even more, showing the importance that Solange as to the article. Although Solange is shown to be very serious and diva like in the main picture there is many pictures along the top of the article that shows her not taking herself to seriously. These picture denote how she is a fun person as the pictures are not her in doing many different poses but her just 'messing around'.
Although there is large amounts of text there is also a bold paragraph which would be summarising what the article is about meaning that people who don't want to have to read the whole article will still be able to understand what the article has said. This would have been the most interesting quote or part of the story and the bold bit is normally read by the reader before the main article, so it needs to be interesting in order for the reader to want to read the whole article. Due to the article having such a small font it allows more information to all fit on one page, this will draw in many of Solange's fans and they will be able to read a large amount about her in one article.
