Research Cover Masthead

Research Cover Masthead 

I need to find a suitable font and style for my masthead to match and portray both of my chosen genres (music and fashion) straight away to a reader.

I have found some of the most popular fashion and music magazines mastheads to compare them to each other. I have found that fashion magazines prefer to have a much more thin font in all capital letters. As well as this they prefer to have more spaced letters and mostly text wrapping. Although from these examples they have no blatantly obvious colour similarities, they still prefer to go towards a red/orange colour in front of a white background. I want to avoid this on my masthead as I feel like its overused. The music magazines have very thick fonts with the letters close together. They often have white text and then over some bright colour (yellow/blue).

To mix these two genres together I would like to use a white font in front of a bright background - as this will also mix in one of my edition themes of a festival setting. I also want to use a thinner font to relate to the fashion genre.
