Stylist has unveiled its Suffragette issue, an entire edition celebrating the landmark centenary of some women first winning the right to vote – kicking start a year-long initiative championing women’s equality. The special edition will hit the streets on 6 February, 100 years to the day that women – over the age of 30 and owning their own property – were first granted UK voting rights, with the issue aged to have the look and feel of a magazine from 1918. Carrying bespoke advertising copy designed in celebration of the Suffragettes and women’s equality, the likes of House of Fraser, River Island, L’Oréal Luxury & Paris, and Sky are already on board. The special edition will tell the moving stories of the heroic women from 100 years ago who dedicated their lives to gaining equality, and will also focus on present day activism for women’s’ rights. Helen Pankhurst, the renowned international women’s rights activist and great-granddaughter of the leader of the British Suffragette movement Emmeline Pankhurst, has consulted with the Stylist editorial team on the content for the Suffragette issue, as well as writing the cover feature, and will be interviewed live on-stage at a one-off Stylist event in February.
