Beyonce Show me

Beyonce's stance shown in cosmopolitan shows her 'sexiness' as a strong independent woman but also shows her fun feminine side which contrasts with her outfit which is black. The black dress connotes masculinity and strength, also it has a very dominant connotation about it. The arrow instructing the audience to flip open is seen as an invitation to sit down 'flip open' the magazine and relax which would help endorse sales. Beyonce's stance is used to connote her sexiness and how curves are still seen as attractive however the hand on the hip can connote her asserting her dominance over a situation. The use of Beyonce's outfit shows her slim body shape also with the colour black it connotes an authority role over the reader and with the 'flip open' in the corner it is as if she is telling the reader to open up the magazine.
