Magazine publisher NewsLifeMedia has today lost three senior editors, including Vogue Australia editor-in-chief Kirstie Clements.
Harper’s Bazaar editor Edwina McCann has been confirmed as the replacement for Clements, and will depart ACP Magazines to take responsibility for both Vogue Australia and vogue.com.au.
The changes come two months after Nicole Sheffield was appointed chief executive officer of NewsLifeMedia.
In a statement, Sheffield thanked Clements "for the significant contribution she has made to Vogue during her time as editor-in-chief. She has guided the brand through a period of great change and has helped lay the foundation for its future.
"Edwina McCann is highly respected in the industry with a strong fashion background and extensive media experience. I'm very excited that she will be leading this holistic approach and will bring to life 'one Vogue' in Australia."
McCann says, "I started my career at Vogue and I am very excited about returning to work for the world's most powerful fashion media brand. The opportunities for this formidable brand online and in a social media landscape are endless and our future is very bright indeed."
It's understood InsideOut editor Richard Waller and NewsLifeMedia’s lifestyle group editor Mark Kelly will also leave the publishing house.
