Chic was an American pornographic magazine first issued by Larry Flynt, of Hustler fame, in November 1976.[1] The publisher was CHIC Magazine Inc. based in Columbus, Ohio.[1]

Intentionally less controversial than Hustler, but similar overall in layout and content, the magazine was an attempt to emulate the more upscale style of rivals such as Penthouse and Oui. Early issues of Chic were oversized; the magazine changed to typical smaller dimensions in 1978. In 1979, Flynt went on trial for obscenity charges over eight issues of Hustler and three issues of Chic magazine. [2]

In 1984, a Texas woman,

Chic ceased publication in December 2001.
