Condé Nast announced it had appointed Rochelle Pinto as Head of Editorial Content for Vogue India. Pinto will oversee the vision and content across all platforms for the brand in India. Before joining Vogue, she was the Founding Editor of Tweak India, the digital company launched by writer and actor Twinkle Khanna. For her new role, Pinto will be based in Mumbai.
Anna Wintour, Chief Content Officer and Global Editorial Director, Vogue, said, “Rochelle is such a talented writer and editor and she knows how fashion and culture intersect in India as well as anyone. She’s a digital thinker through and through, who brings tremendous energy to her work, and is lots of fun to be around too! She’s a great leader, and the natural choice for this role.”
Leslie Sun, APAC Editorial Director, Vogue, said, “Rochelle has a tremendous amount of experience working across platforms. She’s also a passionate editor with a comprehensive knowledge of the Indian market. I’m excited to work with her and look forward to seeing her grow the title and reach new audiences.”
“When I first walked into the Vogue office over a decade ago, I was amazed by the creative energy, spirit of collaboration, and the pursuit of excellence that dominated its culture. Those were lessons I carried with me into every new role, and I’m humbled by the opportunity to return to where it all began as Head of Editorial Content. Through Vogue India, I hope to champion new talent, reflect the zeitgeist and celebrate the spirit of this uniquely diverse country. This is a chance to build an impactful and inclusive media brand across platforms, the kind I would have loved to see when I was growing up. It’s a responsibility I do not take lightly,” said Pinto.
