WaPo revamps its Style section

The following excerpt was sent out from The Washington Post:

The Washington Post is thrilled to announce a relaunch of its iconic Style section, introducing readers to a new design, cutting-edge content and an unwavering commitment to uncovering news and trends in culture with personality, perspective, and deep reporting.

Style content will live online as a curated section for the first time in its history, with its own homepage, a bespoke design that signals the reader is entering a different part of The Post, immersive feature formats, an expanded roster of writers, and a renewed focus on arts and entertainment, media, fashion, cultural trends, and politics.

“The Style section has always been a sharp, funny, and thoughtful conversation partner who explains why people are dressing that way, talking that way, watching that way, voting that way. ‘Style’ entertains you, makes you think, and surprises you,” said Ben Williams, executive features editor. “With this revamp, we’re bringing a beloved cornerstone of The Washington Post into a new era by refreshing the thought-provoking stories and personalities Style has always been known for with a modern, fresh, and accessible digital presentation for new and loyal readers alike.”

In addition to the standalone online section, readers can follow the world of Style with the new newsletter, Style Memo. Initially three days a week, soon moving to daily publication, the newsletter will help subscribers stay on top of what’s new and what’s next with contributions from various Style writers.

A special launch party in Washington, D.C. will also take place later this Fall.
