«Madame Figaro» is a Saturday weekly supplement to the popular French daily newspaper «
Le Figaro», an authoritative women's magazine covering topics about the role and significance of women in society, women's career and fate, love and relationships. At first, «Madame Figaro» was published as part of the Sunday magazine «
Le Figaro Magazine» and was printed on a single page-tab. It was popular with regular readers, so the editors decided to publish it as a separate publication. The magazine is also available abroad, with its most successful international editorial offices in the 1990s in Greece, China, Japan and Turkey, and in Portugal it was published under the title «Máxima».
Today, the magazine is an independent publication and is available for free sale throughout France. Madame Figaro made its career out of extensive interviews that its journalists took from successful women around the world and then published their transcripts on the pages of the magazine. The main topics of the publication are fashion, beautiful life, career, entrepreneurship, cooking, family, travel, etc. Unlike other women's magazines, the focus here is on interviews and analysis, not photos or sensationalism. The main audience of this magazine, according to statistical studies, is women over the age of 30 who subscribe to the newspaper «Le Figaro».
