[caption id="attachment_164365" align="alignright" width="150"] Alyssa Vingan Klein[/caption] Bustle Digital Group named Fashionista’s editor-in-chief Alyssa Vingan Klein as the new editorial director of Nylon. This hire follows last week’s announcement by Nylon editor-in-chief Gabrielle Korn that she was departing the digital magazine after four years. Starting September 9, Vingan Klein will oversee all editorial operations for the newly acquired brand, including working on reinstating its print edition in the form of SIPs. She will report to Emma Rosenblum, editor-in-chief of BDG, Lifestyle, who joined the company in June. “As a teenager in Virginia during the early aughts, I read Nylon religiously,” said Vingan Klein in a statement. “I look forward to working on reestablishing Nylon as a title that influences and drives the cultural conversation.” Vingan Klein had been with Fashionista.com since 2013, when she joined as a senior editor. Three years later, she was promoted to editor-in-chief and has held that role since. During that time, she was credited with bringing in a larger, more diverse audience by expanding the scope of editorial content, as well as introducing video, podcasting and limited-edition merchandise. Prior to that, Vingan Klein was the web editor for Marie Claire, the associate editor at Stylecaster and held roles at Paper magazine. Here are the rest of this week’s people on the move… [caption id="attachment_164369" align="alignright"... Continue reading at 'Folio Magazine'
