Stuart Brumfitt
Editorial Director
& Creative Consultant
ABOUT
As a writer and editor with 20 years of experience, I’ve covered fashion, music, film, TV, art, design, sports, travel and LGBTQ+ life for the world’s biggest media brands, including Fantastic Man, GQ Style, The Face, i-D, Vice, Dazed & Confused and Attitude. I am also the founder and editor of BAGEL, a tennis lifestyle magazine.
As well as editorial, I help brands tell more compelling stories that excite and engage. I believe all brands need expertly developed, beautifully produced and original content that is full of optimism, personality and humanity. I’ve worked with brands including Prada, Adidas, Ralph Lauren, Hugo Boss, Rapha, Nanushka and COS.
