Dasha Zhukova, who replaced Katie Grand as the editor of Pop nearly two years ago, has resigned from the magazine, according to Telegraph fashion editor Hilary Alexander.
Pop was Katie Grand’s baby and Zhukova–a Russia gallery girl, Kova & T designer, and partner of billionaire Roman Abramovich–was given a lot of crap when she entered the role. Owned by Bauer–yes, the publisher who runs Life & Style–Pop has taken on a less-fashion-y, more artsy vibe during Zhukova’s reign.
Whether or not Zhukova was unceremoniously canned or simply decided she’d had enough is yet to be determined. Know anything? Email us on tips@fashionista.com.

She was hardly canned, was she now, when she has produced such successful issues since she’s been there. And then there’s the fact of her stellar contacts that she’s brought to POP. Saying she was sacked just sounds ignorant if you consider who Dasha Zhukova actually is. It’s clear she is moving on…

i picked up the recent issue of POP. My first in a long time, and the writing was terrible and it read like a 16year old book report. Whether she moved on or got sacked is beyond the point….shes GONE!
