Awarded to an initiative that offers the best re-purposing, re-packaging and/or extension of a feature related to a print product, FASHIONMagazine.com was recognized as the “Best Cross-Platform Initiative” for its “Men’s Spring Style” feature. The hub highlights the best in men's style, grooming, culture and more, including interactive local shopping guides for Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver.
