Who Will Be W’s New EIC? We Have An Idea…
On Wednesday, Condé Nast announced that it would be moving W Magazine out of the Fairchild Fashion Group, which also currently owns WWD and all of its offshoots. According to their press release:
“Patrick McCarthy will continue in his role as chairman of the Fairchild Fashion Group through the end of the year. As part of the restructuring, an editor in chief of W will be named by Thomas J. Wallace, editorial director of Condé Nast.”
So who’s it going to be? Our best guess: Creative Director of Elle Magazine, Joe Zee. You’ve seen him in The City, you’ve seen his monthly A-Zee column, and follow his twitter page obsessively. If you haven’t followed Zee’s career, what you may not know is that he was previously the fashion director at W, and, while he may still report to Elle’s editor in chief Robbie Myers, he has been extremely influential in turning Elle into a success in recent years. We believe Condé Nast would be anxious to have them back in their fold.
Time to graduate to the top, Joe Zee? We think so.
