After ten years of reigning over Vogue Paris, Carine Roitfeld has handed in her resignation. The Vogue editor-in-chief will leave her post at the end of January to pursue personal projects.
The super influential fashionista started off her career as a model with Mario Testino, one of her closest friends also being the godfather of her son, Vladimir Restoin Rotfeld, editor of Vogue Paris. Roitfeld also worked as a consultant and a muse for Tom Ford and Yves Saint-Laurent before taking over the job at the magazine.
"It is impossible to overstate Carine's powerful contribution to Vogue and to the fields of fashion and magazine publishing. Under her direction, Vogue Paris received record levels of circulation, advertising and editorial success," said Jonathan Newhouse, ceo of Condé Nast International.
Carine Roitfeld’s replacement is due to be announced in the forthcoming weeks.
