It's a fashion magazine; at least it's accurately reflecting the current fashions.

You joke, but fashion publications have been at the vanguard of a lot of this.

For example, during recent internal conflicts at the NYT (like the one that forced out Bari Weiss), it was the Style section where the staunchest supporters of one faction lived. It's obvious enough if you compare the Style section to other parts of the newspaper.

I believe there were some earlier squabbles at Teen Vogue as well.

The role of fashion publications is even reflected (knowingly, I assume) in phrases like "not a good look".
