Cosmopolitan isn't just a magazine, it's a religion. Now in its 15th year in India, Cosmopolitan is the world's largest selling magazine, with 200 million readers annually in a 100 countries. It is published in over 26 languages, but at its core, it speaks only one – that of fun fearless females globally. Another language it speaks? That of stupendous success! Each month Cosmopolitan features some of the biggest celebrity names on its cover; it has launched the glamour careers of more gorgeous girls than we can count. Top Indian actresses, models and singers have been on the cover of Cosmopolitan before the rest of the world recognised their spark-because we know a fun fearless female when we see one! When we put someone on the Cosmopolitan cover, we acknowledge her right to be counted among the best in the business. Love, sex, relationships and men are at the heart of Cosmopolitan, but there’s also style and beauty, health and fitness, work and leisure, celebrity and entertainment. Perhaps most unique is the way in which Cosmopolitan blends glamorous and gutsy, intimate and open-minded. It brings women across the world in countries as diverse as Finland, South Africa and India, together on a common platform. Cosmopolitan is about celebrating women; it supports, encourages, entertains, amuses, inspires and uplifts-helping its readers be the very best that they can be. For a girl who thinks of herself as fun and fearless, there's simply no other magazine.

Once upon a time we began as a boutique publisher with a signature title – Bespoke. In the twelve years since then we have developed and grown to become a fully-fledged multimedia company under the name Official Bespoke, boasting a digital platform, coffee table books and the most widely circulated bi-monthly lifestyle magazine in the Middle East. If you are curious, believe in a glass half full, enjoy the finer things in life and are hungry for unique and original stories, chances are we’ve got you covered with our updates on Twitter, our daily dose of visual escapism on Instagram, our rich and diverse programming on Facebook and YouTube, and of course our award-winning magazine, which exemplifies our mission to publish stories that are luxurious in nature but also highlight engaging personalities, products and places that leave a lasting impression of the Arab world, and best represent our values and successes to the rest of the globe. We ask that you put your feet up, turn off the noise, check out of your normal news cycle and allow us to take you into a world of inspiration. It was very difficult to put together an Ultimate Awards Issue given the misery of what is going on in Palestine right now. Still, we did the best we could despite the fact we can’t discuss politics. We found a margin of manoeuvre in the interview with Mia Khalifa and shed the light on many admirable people, products, and places – like Jumana Ghouth, Hamad Sultan, Sayar & Garibeh, and the ‘Atlantis, The Royal’ in Dubai. Rest assured it’s another jampacked issue. Enjoy the journey we take you on and let us hope that 2024 gives us reason to be optimistic for the future once again.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: official bespoke at 100% against Cosmopolitan India's 37%. official bespoke also leads on rating (5.0 vs 1.0) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Cosmopolitan India's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
