Breaking: Brandon Holley Has Been Named Editor of Lucky
Nice bomb to drop the day before Fashion Week.
Former ElleGIRL and Jane editor-in-chief Brandon Holley has been named editor of Lucky. She will succeed Kim France, reports WWD.
Most recently, Holley was content director at Yahoo! Shine, the portal’s channel for women.
Holley is a good fit for Lucky, which houses plenty of former Jane and Sassy staffers, including creative director Andrea Linett. While the copy is minimal and fairly sterile, the market pages and designer profiles are the dream of a certain type of editor. The clothes, products, and accessories–from brands like Mayle and Lyell to Rebecca Minkoff–are things these women would actually wear. And Holley fits into that mold–slightly indie, but not snobby.
