History and profile edit
The magazine was started with the name Flitiga Händer (Swedish: Busy Hands) in November 1939.[1][2] In 1940 it was renamed as Damernas Värld with the subtitle Flitiga händer.[2][3] In 1944 the subtitle was removed, and it began to appear with the title Damernas Värld.[2] The magazine is part of Bonnier Group and is published on a monthly basis by Bonnier Tidskrifter.[3]
Gunny Widell and Martina Bonnier served as the editor-in-chief of the magazine.[4][3] Its headquarters is in Stockholm.[1] Although the main focus of the magazine is fashion, it also features articles on health and beauty.[1] Since 1982 the magazine offers the Damernas Värld Guldknappen, an annual award targeting Swedish fashion designers.[5]
Damernas Värld celebrated its seventy-fifth anniversary with a cover featuring the editor-in-chief Martina Bonnier in April 2015.[3] The magazine was integrated into the website of the Expressen newspaper along with other Bonnier magazines such as Sköna hem and Allt om Mat in May 2021.[6]
