“CRIS - TOEY - PAULA” SEVENTEEN FIRST THAI COVER GIRLS
DATE PUBLISHED: 05 AUGUST 2010

Seventeen is the No. 1 best-selling magazine for young women around the world and it has won the hearts of Thai women for seven years. As it steps into its 8th year, Seventeen unveils a fresh new look, a brand new logo, and introduces Cris Horwang, Jarinporn “Toey” Joonkiat and Paula Taylor as Seventeen’s first Thai cover girls for the August 2010 issue, which is on stands now.

Prayer Kavitanon, editor-in-chief of Seventeen, says “During the seven years that we’ve published Seventeen Thailand, the most frequently asked question is ‘When will Seventeen have a Thai cover girl?’ As we enter our 8th year, we think it’s time for Thai girls to finally and rightfully grace the cover of Seventeen. We also changed to our new logo, to be in line with the parent magazine and other Seventeen Magazines around the world. The overall image of the new Seventeen is noticeably more savvy and modern to reflect the growth of our readers. The content would also be more varied, covering a broad range of riveting lifestyle stories. To find the right cover girl, we launched Seventeen’s First Thai Cover Girl campaign in the past few months and invited our readers to vote for an actress they wanted to see on the cover. But instead of picking just one girl, we decided to go ahead with a big surprise. Seventeen’s August issue has three different covers with three different cover girls! You can buy the cover with your favorite actress featured or collect all three editions. This is a big makeover for Seventeen to mark our eight anniversary and we would like to present the new Seventeen as a gift to all our loyal readers.” (more…)
