What is this magazine?

April 28, 2007 1:20 PM

This is a long shot, but here goes: The website of a certain company in my town features the bio of a woman who was the recipient of a "prominent young women" award from Mirabelle Magazine in the 1990's. I was curious about the award and the magazine, but when I looked it up online I couldn't find anything that made sense.

There's something that appears to have been a music fan magazine in the UK called Mirabelle, but I think it stopped publication in the 1970's. Does anyone have any information on this?

Mirabelle was a fashion/lifestyle magazine in the states. It didn't have a very long life. I think they were trying to pull readers of Mademoiselle and Marie Claire. That is about all I remember about the magazine.

It was probably Mirabella magazine.

In fact, if you Google +mirabella "women for the nineties" you'll come across several other women with the same claim to fame (it appears to have been the June 1994 issue).

That looks like it, must have been a typo on the web site I saw ;-)

Thanks!
