The German monthly Madame has been in publication since 1950, originally launched under the name Figaro. After a legal dispute with the French daily Le Figaro, the magazine adopted the name Madame in 1952. It holds the distinction of being Germany's oldest fashion magazine still in publication. Drawing inspiration from iconic American publications such as Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, Madame successfully featured both German and international fashion, showcased through the lens of renowned photographers like Regina Relang.
