Submission Guidelines

ALL WORK MUST BE EXCLUSIVE AND UNPUBLISHED.

7Hues Magazine only takes exclusive fashion editorials for print publication. A release is required to be signed by the photographer once the editorial/fashion video is approved. If your editorial or fashion video has been published in another publication it will not be accepted. If we accept the editorial and we see that it was published in another publication before our release date we will remove it from the publication. If we publish the editorial and notice that it was published in another publication after our release date we will not go back and remove it from the print, but we will not share it on any of our social networks or on our website.

IMPORTANT

Images that have been posted on social media (Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, etc.) will not be published. We like to keep images exclusive to the magazine. Once published if accepted, you can post your work online.
