The news comes a year after that Condé Nast men’s fashion glossy title Details was retired after 33 years in publication.
Self will continue as a digital-only brand. The Chinese edition of Self will continue in its current monthly print edition, and special one-off print editions focused on “health and wellness-related moments” will periodically appear in the U.S., according to a Condé Nast in a statement.
Self's current monthly circulation is about 1.5 million. Magazine-media news site Folio reported that newsstand sales have fallen 71 percent for the title since 2013.
“By re-imagining how Self creates content — and how we distribute it, we are uniquely positioned to give consumers more of what they love while creating innovative and engaging opportunities for our advertising partners,” said Condé Nast chief business officer Jim Norton in a statement.
Carolyn Kylstra has been named editor-in-chief of the forthcoming all-digital publication. Kylstra, who was previously a health editor at Buzzfeed, joined Condé Nast last year as executive digital director, and has since led the entirety of the brand’s digital editorial content. She was previously a site director at Women’s Health, a senior editor at Cosmopolitan and an associate editor at Men's Health.
Kylstra succeeds outgoing editor-in-chief Joyce Chang, who has been at the helm since 2014. Chang, a former executive editor of Cosmopolitan, will be leaving the company, according to a report by Folio.
Publishing behemoth Condé Nast's roster of print titles includes New Yorker, GQ, Vanity Fair, Vogue, Glamour, Wired, Lucky, W and Bon Appetit.
