Cosmopolitan in the 1980s - 1990s

When the 80s arrive, so do changes in the scheme of this magazine's covers. The first change we see compared to the 1970s is the change in the presentation of the headlines. Headlines that used to be of the same color and font now changed to different types of fonts. One pattern that can be established from when the magazine started and its covers up to the 1980s is the fact that all the headlines are written uniformly in a line and with the same margin (no different shapes, or different in the spacing between headlines). Also, the fact that the people embracing the covers of the magazine are models and not celebrities. Another aspect of the magazine cover that can be denoted during this period of time is the fact that sex was not as explicitly presented in every issue. As we enter the decade of the 90s we see the number of headlines in the cover decrease substantially.
