S4E1: Stella Bugbee

Stella Bugbee is editor in chief and president of The Cut, a women’s media site published by New York magazine.

When it came time for a redesign, Bugbee explained how she wanted the new site to look:

I immediately told the designers what I really want is something that blends a literary feeling with a punk feminist sensibility that never actually says anything about fashion at all, but is very, very stylish.
