Breaking: Dasha Zhukova Resigns from Pop

Wednesday, Nov 10, 2010 / 3:52 PM

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.

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.
