Rumors are surfacing that Brad Goreski’s departure from Team Zoe happened far earlier than the Oct. 1 date announced to the public.

Brad’s solo styled shoot for October’s Harper’s Bazaar offers some proof to this, as does the fact that both Brad and Rachel styled the same Stella McCartney striped look for separate shoots. Rachel styled Ginta Lapina in this striped Stella dress for LOVE #4 which debuted in late August, so either Brad knew of Rachel’s styling choice, or he had already left Rachel when she did the LOVE shoot….

Either way, Rachel’s influence on her ducklings is obvious.
