Just a few months shy of a decade since I started, I am leaving Glamour. From portraits of celebrities to activists, beauty images to still life, illustrations, and videos, I am grateful for every minute. Thank you. Here are just a few faves as I look back. What a privilege it has been to spend time with each of these women, the photographers, and the teams behind each striking image. (I’ve been told no one reads “essay” captions but thank you @cindi_leive @sambarry @pcrnyc @nathaliekirsheh for your leadership over the years with special thanks to @ashcurryphoto for thinking of me back in 2015 -and to @mpacetx for the intro and support.) 1.

Latest cover for @Selfmagazine with @traceeellisross ! Tracee radiates joy and energy, which Heather Hazzan captured perfectly. Watching these images come together was magic. Some of my fave images from 2025. Thank you: Photo: @heatherhazzan Stylist: @dionemdavis Hair: @chuckielovehair Makeup: @romyglow Nails: @nailsbymaki.nyc Set: @colinl_ Production: @melissa.j.kramer
August cover with @juliafox for @allure 😻😻😻 Spending daytime hours in a nightclub as fantastic as as @houseofyesnyc is always surreal and feels a bit like pulling back the curtain on the wizard of oz. Reminds me of the feeling of waking up from crashing on a friends couch after a party at the White Roach in Nashville. Flip to the last slide to see the Allure legends from set, plus see the fun and talented shoot team below: 👏👏👏 Photographer/Director: @mikemarasco Stylist: @carolinaorrico Hair: @johnnovotny Makeup: @mitchyoshidamakeup Manicure: @lollykoonnails Production: @rawmediahouse Location: @houseofyesnyc Writer: @nicoladallasen Allure team photo: @laurenalberti_ (will get you next time)
@nicolekidman for @allure back in May! A perfect day with Nicole, who is such a bold and creative spirit. While Nicole played with different red hairstyles, custom colored and cut by @evaniefrausto and set in a surreal space by @lizzielang . @danbeleiu made these striking images. @shionat took time off her work with you know who to style, with makeup by @yumilee_mua and nails by @thuybnguyen Thanks for all the production help @rowanproductions 😻 And thank you Allure team: @jcruel @avenerable @eugeneshevertalov @tchesmeni @jbailly @ingrid.anna.fowler #nicolekidman

I’m very happy to share the first SELF cover under my new role as Visuals Director across both Allure and SELF, under the incredible leadership of editor Jessica Cruel and artistic vision of CD Amber Venerable. Olivia Munn shares her story of motherhood and breast cancer in the interview and it is definitely worth the time to read :) Thanks to the team for such a great start to SELF covers for me!

Thanks @timolenzen for this spot on animated illustration! This story by @ashleyabrmsn for Allure is about an “expert” used as a source all over the internet who could not be verified as existing. Link to the story is in my bio and I’ll link in my stories. It is wild.
“Glamour: An Extraordinary History” is finally out after two years of work! (Link to buy in bio) This book is a fun and fascinating look at 85 years of Glamour magazine. Beginning in 1939, Glamour pivoted as WWII changed the lives of American women and has been evolving ever since to cover work, race, marriage, sex, abortion, fashion and more. Looking back at all the images and stories, you cannot help but see how much has changed - it took 29 years to put a Black woman on the cover, a first for any American fashion magazine - and how much remains the same. See the last slide for a debate on career vs housewife (Illustrated by Andy Warhol), that seems right at home with the current “Trad Wife” debates I see on social media today. There is no easy hack to making a book like this. It is hours upon hours of work, sifting through 1000 back issues, agonizing over which photos to include and trying layout after layout. Finding who can ID the models from past photos (thank you @dbrock324 ) and internet sleuthing to find photographers from thirty years ago. It would not have happened without the hard work and passion of @izlobel . Thank you. Thank you to @tashpearlman for the concept, leadership and writing of the book. To @alliefolino for the inspired cover and design; To @annamoeslein @ru_wolle @moneeeeekk for your research and writing; To @theothereilish for steering us along the way and to Nicole Stuart and all of the copy and research team. MVP’s all. And thank you @sambarry for your edits, encouragement and stellar interview on @todayshow for the launch. @glamourmag @condenastarchive @abramsbooks Special thanks to @ivanshaw for your support and guidance
