Following the abrupt departures of Cathy Horyn and Suzy Menkes, The New York Times is rebuilding their Styles section. Vanessa Friedman has been tapped as the publication’s fashion director and chief fashion critic, a position that was created to fill the gap left by Horyn and Menkes. She will resume her position next month after decamping from The Financial Times, where she has been the publication’s inaugural fashion editor since 2003. Before joining FT, she was the features and fashion director during the launch of InStyle UK and her work can be found in the pages of The Economist, The New Yorker, Vogue, and Entertainment Weekly. With her witty and concise reviews of the runway, it goes without saying that Friedman will inject a strong voice into her coverage.
