British Vogue appoints fashion director
British Vogue has announced the appointment of acclaimed stylist and
fashion photographer Venetia
Scott as fashion director, effective 10 July. It is the
first appointment to be made by Edward Enninful, incoming editor-in-chief, who
takes up his role in August.
Venetia began her career
at British Vogue
as assistant to Grace Coddington, before working as a stylist with magazines
including Vogue Italia,
AnOther Magazine, Self Service, The Face, Arena, i-D and Nova, where she was
appointed Fashion Director. In 1997, Venetia began consulting for Marc Jacobs,
becoming Creative Director in 2001, responsible for directing the Marc by Marc
Jacobs line and associated accessories from launch. A move into photography
began in 2005, with commissions from British
Vogue, American
Vogue, Vogue Paris, W, Self Service, AnOther Magazine, Dazed & Confused, POP, i-D, Document Journal, and Purple.
Edward said of the
appointment: “Visionary,
influential and inspiring are overused terms, but in this case appropriate to
describe Venetia’s work. Venetia will continue the legacy of creativity and
innovation for which British Vogue is known, positioning it for its next
century.”
