During the initial period, Svensk Damtidning targeted all women without a special reference concerning social class, but later it was called a royal lifestyle magazine due to its focus[2] as, from the 1970s, it began to cover celebrity news and focus on the news about the European royal families.[3] Its audience is women aged between 20 and 49.[4]
