ELLE DECOR announced the appointment of Elisa Lipsky-Karasz as its new Head of Editorial Content. Lipsky-Karasz will lead the brand’s content development across all print and digital platforms, reporting to Editorial and Brand Director Stellene Volandes. This collaboration marks a new chapter in the evolution of ELLE DECOR.
Stellene Volandes, who has led the brand since 2020, said: “I have admired Elisa’s work and taste for years now and I could not think of a better collaborator and editorial partner for me as we embark on this next chapter of ELLE DECOR”.
Elisa Lipsky-Karasz brings extensive editorial expertise to this role. She most recently served as editorial director at WSJ Magazine, with previous leadership positions at Harper’s BAZAAR and Women’s Wear Daily. She stated:
Stellene’s strategic leadership and editorial acuity is inspiring and provides an invaluable road map. I can’t wait to work with her and the entire team at ELLE DECOR as we build on the strong foundation of this iconic brand. I am excited to return to Hearst, where the powerful role that design plays across every facet of our audience’s lives is literally built into the foundations: every day, I marvel at Hearst Tower’s three-story glass waterfall and a Richard Long mural, all designed by Lord Norman Foster!
In addition to Lipsky-Karasz, ELLE DECOR recently welcomed other key team members, including Benjamin Reynaert as Market Director, Annie Goldsmith as News and Strategy Lead, and William Li in an expanded Special Projects Editor role. With this robust leadership, the brand is poised to solidify its role as a leader in luxury design.
