You have probably seen Caroline hitting up New York Fashion Week in her signature eyewear, vibrant outfits, and eclectic nail designs. Always glamorous and oh-so stylish, Caroline Vazzana has an impressive resume. She is one of the few that has been born and brought up in fashion’s capital, New York, and knew from the beginning, her true passion.
Caroline began her career with Anna Sui, and then forayed into the fashion editorial world by working at Marie Claire, Teen Vogue, and InStyle Magazine. As a fashion writer, editor, and stylist, Caroline has made a name for herself as a fashion contributor for many publications and in doing so, has interviewed key designers such as Betsey Johnson, Diane Von Furstenberg, and Manolo Blahnik for feature articles. Aside from her time in the editorial world, Caroline has also styled celebrities for various red carpet events from the MTV Video Music Awards, to the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards, just to name a few.
In her new position with Global Glam Magazine, she hopes to regularly bring you her fashion acumen, insight, foresight, adventures, and several aspects of the industry straight to you first. She, along with editor-in-chief, Christine Philip will also be introducing master stylist classes in New York starting in December.
