For many decades, BRAVO played a pioneering role in sex education and youth development in Germany. As one of the first and best-known youth magazines, it regularly focused on topics such as body awareness, healthy sexuality, relationships, and personal development. Especially from the 1960s to the 1990s, the magazine was a central medium that provided guidance and education on intimate topics to young people during a time of social upheaval.
With a blend of serious, scientifically sound content and an accessible, youth-friendly approach, BRAVO helped many generations of young people grapple with questions of physical development and sexual identity. The magazine always emphasized independent, responsible reporting and treated sexuality not as a taboo, but as a natural part of growing up.
What was it like back in 1987 ? Which stars were popular? What music did we listen to? What problems did we face as teenagers ? Do you still remember when you held your first magazine, BRAVO, in your hands? Flipping through the pages, giggling with friends, or seeing the walls and doors covered in stickers?
Dive in again! As a leading medium for youth culture , these issues offer an interesting insight into a bygone era. This compilation contains all BRAVO issues from 1987 , complete and in full, in PDF format. The compilation also includes the celebrity cutouts of the year, as well as a list of all music hits and BRAVO - OTTO winners .

Please consider the historical context when reading the issues! Some formulations, views, texts, and reports may be outdated from today's perspective, but we have decided not to comment on or alter the issues retroactively in any way, but to leave them in their original form, as the issues represent important contemporary historical documents for us. As a cross-generational companion for young people, BRAVO offers an interesting insight into cultural development. This is precisely why it is important to pay attention to the historical and social context when reading.

The year 1987
1987 was the year U2 took the world by storm with "The Joshua Tree," redefining rock with socially critical lyrics and epic sounds. At the same time, George Michael and Whitney Houston celebrated the peak of their pop careers with hits like "Faith" and "I Wanna Dance with Somebody." Hard rock reached new heights with Guns N' Roses and Bon Jovi, and Prince set new standards in funk and pop music with "Sign o' the Times." In the cinema, "The Untouchables" conquered the screens, and "Dirty Dancing" became an iconic dance film. 1987 was a year of musical change, pop icons, and film classics that are still remembered today.
