Does anyone here subscribe to Womens Wear Daily: http://www.wwd.com/, either on-line or the newspaper version? Do you feel the subscription is worth it? Thx.

I don't personally subscribe but I get it at work and I have access to it online from my college.  I love it, however I am pretty sure it is expensive.  If I had to pay for it, I am not sure if I would but it is a guilty pleasure of mine.  I love reading it!

depends on what you're looking for.  i haven't read it in awhile, but from what i can recall it really is a trade paper. lots of stuff on the business side who's coming, who's going,  etc.  if you're interested in that sort of thing then it's probably worth it. 


if you're looking for a daily fashion magazine it might not be what you want esp. since it's not cheap.  you might want to check out this site http://www.fashionweekdaily.com/  it's free and has a more magaziney vibe (if that's what you're looking for)

I agree with Honey. Its a trade paper. So if you are looking for that or are in the business its excellent.

i subscribe and consider it 100% worth it. but if you're looking for another fashion source to read.. this isn't really it. as mentioned before, it's definitely more about the business side of things. M&A, Executive profiles are more prominent in this paper than fashion trends, street style, etc....

I think it's about $100 for a year and you get all the WWD magazine supplements. I think it's pretty worth it.. but I find I get behind and sometimes read two weeks worth of papers at a time. Also I almost never read Fridays (that's beauty biz).
