    UK news brands launch first 'shows' using new Snapchat video format as they claim audience reach more important than making money

Vogue International Snapchat editor Sarah Schijen: “We see Snapchat Discover as an opportunity to bring British Vogue to the fashion influencers of the future. Our audience for the Snapchat Discover Stories will overwhelmingly be aged 13-24, and the content will reflect this; contemporary, vibrant and shareable.

Vogue will publish new editions to Snapchat three times a week, posting content on Saturdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. The first edition will include an exclusive interview with Edward Enninful, the newly appointed editor-in-chief, as well as “interactive features, styling tips, product roundups and some classic Vogue photography”, according to the British Vogue website.

Tom Conway, Condé Nast International head of platform relationships, said: “This is an important development in our global publishing strategy for Vogue. Our dedicated Snapchat team will work intimately with the local markets to produce best-in-class interactive content, with a hub-and-spoke structure that allows us to scale globally.”
