Ingrid Sischy and Sandra Brandt just got named International Editors of German and Russian Vogues.

The duo’s already been contributing to both Spanish and Italian Vanity Fair since they launched last September, and Ingrid’s been a contributing editor for Vanity Fair US since 1997. The Conde Nast press release says, “Ingrid and Sandy are a unique journalistic team, full of ideas and with strong ties to the worlds of Hollywood, fashion and the arts.”

That dose of Hollywood might be perfect for Vanity Fair but it’s fashion they’ll need to keep up with Aliona Doleteskaya at Russian Vogue. Which we guess explains their much discussed presence and frantic note-taking in almost every front row in Paris.
