Thom Bettridge Is I-D‘s New Editor In Chief!

I-D has a new EIC! Bedford Media Group has named Thom Bettridge the magazine’s editor-in-chief and chief brand officer. In his new role, Bettridge will oversee all of the publication’s digital, editorial, and commercial projects—including a print relaunch next spring! The fresh EIC was previously vice president of creative and content at Ssense and editor-in-chief at HighSnobiety, bringing a range of both editorial and commerce experience to the table. Ahead of Bedford’s latest announcement, the company came under fire for widespread i-D staff layoffs and a full website redesign in March. As for what’s next? Bettridge is building out his editorial team—which the publication will announce in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!

Did OK! Magazine Take Over Grazia USA?

In a surprising editorial shakeup, Grazia USA‘s Instagram has been wiped—by OK! Magazine! Around 7 p.m. last night, Grazia‘s American outpost cleared its IG feed. However, just one post remained: a pink and white graphic of OK!‘s logo, which also replaced the magazine’s avatar. Currently, there’s no word on the publication’s future at OK!, and Grazia USA‘s Instagram has been deleted—though its secondary Instagram is still up and running. Luckily for you, we have receipts!

“We want to let you know that this page will be closing soon. But don’t worry—our journey isn’t ending!” the pub’s last caption read. “You can continue to enjoy all the latest updates, exclusive content, and more by liking and following our new @okmagazine page. Your support has meant everything to us, and we can’t wait to keep sharing exciting content with you at our new home!”
