In 2015, he added oversight of sister title StyleWatch, and earlier this year, was named editorial director of the company's newly-formed InStyle Collection, which includes InStyle, digital properties xoJane and Mimi, and influencer network The Outfit. When asked by WWD whether his added responsibilities contributed to his decision to leave InStyle, Foxman responded, "There's really very little subtext here."
