Journal des Dames, Paris, January 1774.

Journal des Dames was a French women's magazine, published between January 1759 and June 1778. [1] It was a pioneering magazine as one of the first women's magazines as well as one of the first fashion magazines in France and Europe. It was also one of the first feminist magazines in Europe.

History

The Journal des Dames was initially intended as a conventional magazine adressed to a female clientele and with a focus on fashion.

During the editors Madame de Beaumer and Catherine Michelle de Maisonneuve in the 1760s, the magazine became a radical feminist magazine adressing women's issues.

Between 1774 and 1778, the magazine was used by the fashion advisers of queen Marie Antoinette, Léonard Autié and Rose Bertin, to popularize Marie Antoinette as a fashion icon and role model by publishing the personal fashion and style of the queen.
