Katie Grand
Founder, Perfect Magazine; Founder & Former Editor-in-Chief, Love Magazine
The British stylist brought her cheeky, irreverent take on fashion to the biannual Love, which she founded and launched with backing from Condé Nast.

Katie Grand is the founder of Perfect Magazine, a fashion magazine and creative agency, which she launched in 2020. She is also the founder of Love, a bi-annual publication she launched in February 2009 with Condé Nast International. In September 2020 she stepped down as editor-in-chief of the publication.
She is also a highly regarded stylist and creative consultant, and a key collaborator of designer Marc Jacobs , with whom she has worked for the last 11 years.
She styled her first Louis Vuitton campaign for the Spring/Summer 2003 season, designed by Jacobs, and has subsequently styled nearly 20 Louis Vuitton womenswear shows and four menswear shows. She has also worked with a number of other major luxury brands, including Bottega Veneta, Prada, Armani and Dolce & Gabbana. She has also worked on Charles Jeffrey's 10 year anniversary show in London.
In the past Grand has contributed to publications including Arena Homme Plus and Harper’s Bazaar. Currently, Grand regularly contributes to Vogue Paris, Vogue Japan, Tatler, Industrie and Interview.
Following graduation, along with friends Jefferson Hack and Rankin, Grand launched independent fashion and youth culture magazine Dazed & Confused, taking the role of fashion director. In 1999, Grand was appointed fashion director of The Face, but left to launch her own magazine, Pop, where she was editor-in-chief until 2008, when she was approached by Condé Nast.
