This article aims to analyze the “Style” magazine before the U.S-Japan war specifically from 1939-1941 .The “Style” magazine, edited and published by novelist Uno Chiyo, was published as a leisure magazine. However, “Style” changed its editorial policy and became a “Lifestyle Guidance Magazine” in 1940. Consequently, the articles on fashion and movies from the U.S. and France were replaced by propaganda photographs from Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany. Moreover, this article sheds light on the controversy surrounding the idea of women working outside the household at this time.
