about
Hi!
I’m Emma Childs, a fashion editor living in Brooklyn, NYC.
I’m currently the fashion features editor at Marie Claire, where I write about zeitgeist-y trends and the intersection of style and human interest storytelling. Think: Picking an indie designer's brain, profiling emerging tastemakers, and speaking with politicians, chefs, and C-suite executives about their all-time favorite work bags and reconnecting with their style postpartum.
Previously, I wrote fashion features, trend reports, and fashion news for The Zoe Report, e-commerce roundups for Editorialist, fashion news at Elite Daily, and fashion features at Mission Magazine. I studied New Media & Digital Design and Fashion Studies at Fordham University Lincoln Center.
A little more about me: I grew up on Cape Cod, MA, and also dabbled in photography and art direction. When I’m not writing about trends and internet fashion discourse, I’m stalking eBay for designer vintage, reading literary fiction, and befriending bodega cats.
