The Bold Type follows the lives of three friends in their twenties, Jane (Katie Stevens), Kat (Aisha Dee) and Sutton (Meghan Fany), who live in New York City. The three meet and become friends while working for an international women’s publication called Scarlet Magazine.
Jacqueline Carlyle, the Editor-in-Chief of Scarlet Magazine, is based on Joanna Coles, the former Editor-in-Chief (2012-2016) of Cosmopolitan Magazine.
The series follows the lives of Jane, Kat, and Sutton as they struggle with their sexuality, establish an identity for themselves and find love. The series addresses social issues affecting young millennial professional women, such as sexuality, race and social class.
In Season 1, Jane works as a writer at Scarlet but quits. Sutton moves from the editorial to the fashion department while trying to conceal her ongoing relationship with a board member. Meanwhile, Kat becomes Scarlet’s social media director and enters into a relationship.
In The Bold Type Season 2, Jane leaves Scarlet to work as a freelance writer, but eventually returns.
