According to WWD, Lady Gaga’s VOGUE issue, which features her photo shoot by Mert and Marcus, officially topped 2012 sales. At first it seemed like Taylor Swift got to sell more copies, but today the exact amount of copies sold was published.
For Vogue, Taylor Swift sold 329,371 copies, digital sales included, which was a little above the six-month average that ended in June 2012, but no match for Lady Gaga, the magazine’s top seller last year, with about 602,000 copies. Or for that matter, Adele, the second-best seller with 410,343. All numbers come from the publisher’s statements to the Alliance for Audited Media.
