Sleazenation was a monthly London based fashion and lifestyle magazine printed by Swinstead Publishing. Its slogan is, "An ideal for living through fashion, art, music and design" with an occasional variation depending on the issue.

It is known for its somewhat self-deprecatingly humorous attitude towards vanity, with cover headlines varying from, "Now even more superficial/Over 100 pages of hype & lies" to, "Absolute sell out". The best-known cover was Scott King's "Cher Guevara" (February 2001) which won several magazine awards and was featured in the Barbican exhibition 'Communicate: Independent British Graphic Design since the Sixties'.

Sleazenation closed in 2004, to be reborn as simply 'Sleaze' in April that year. The re-invigorated 'Sleaze' only lasted for another 3 months before it too closed.

The former editor Neil Boorman and former music editor Stuart Turnbull went on to run free London bi-monthly magazine 'Good for Nothing' - now also defunct.
