Grazia USA Appoints Gwen Flamberg Very First Beauty Director

Grazia USA is doubling down on beauty coverage — and has hired a veteran editor to oversee its efforts.

Gwen Flamberg has been named the publication’s very first beauty director, effective immediately, overseeing beauty coverage across platforms.

“Gwen and I were chatting recently about my goal to expand beauty coverage in Grazia USA and it just so happened she was looking for a new home,” Joseph Errico, editor and chief creative officer of Grazia USA, said in a statement. “It’s not every day that someone with her talent, experience and reputation becomes available. It was kismet.”

Flamberg has spent over two decades in editorial and most recently helmed beauty and style for Us Weekly across print and digital platforms, including the title’s beauty podcast, Glam Squad Confidential.

“[Grazia USA] reflects the return to deep quality content that we are seeing right now and I’m honored to help bring beauty to life in this beyond-chic, luxury publication,” Flamberg said in the statement. “I’m thrilled to join Grazia USA and the whole next-level creative team.”

Reworld Media acquired the title in January 2023, and operates it under the subsidy Reworld Media U.S. Inc., as reported. The print publication is published quarterly and recently expanded its distribution with Hudson News in the U.S.

“Flamberg is an elegant beauty powerhouse that we are honored to have on our team. With our deep roots in luxury, fashion, jewelry and watches and our readers’ keen interest in beauty and wellness, we are doubling down on delivering innovative beauty content and highlighting beauty brands from the indie to the iconic,” Maria Eliason, executive vice president of advertising at Grazia USA, said in the statement.
