Margriet is a Dutch weekly women's magazine, which publishes articles on fashion, beauty, health, nutrition, relationships, and society. Formerly published by Verenigde Nederlandse Uitgeverijen, it is owned and published by Sanoma after the latter took over VNU's magazine division.
Established in 1938, Margriet once held the title of the most widely circulated women’s magazine in The Netherlands, attracting over a million weekly readers. For its first four years, nearly all its content was written by a single person, Alma van Eysden-Peeren. In the late 1960s, the magazine embraced feminism, gaining recognition—and sometimes controversy—for its inclusion of emancipatory content. Margriet broke new ground for a mainstream publication by conducting bold polls among its readers and actively participating in feminist initiatives.
