Cortne Bonilla-Oliva
She has over a decade of experience covering the fashion market, and over the course of her career, which spans previous roles as Senior Shopping Writer at Vogue, Fashion Market Editor at The Cut, and Fashion and Branded Content Editor at Editorialist, she has cultivated an editorial perspective rooted in both rigorous market intelligence and an instinctive understanding of fashion’s cultural vernacular. Her work has spanned the full fashion ecosystem—from the runway and showroom to retail and the wardrobes of real women, including herself, a new mother—giving her a practiced eye for emerging designers, shifting aesthetic codes, and pieces poised to transcend a single season. Cortne has been cited as a fashion expert in Who What Wear, Harper’s Bazaar, Elle Magazine, and The Cut, among other publications, and has appeared in newsletters like Selleb and Shopmy to provide quotes and recommendations. In 2022, she received accolades for her copy in Vox Creative’s documentary, “The Beauty of Blackness.”
She also enjoys a good, well-matched social media collaboration and has worked with Theory, Tibi, Jenni Kayne, J.Crew, and more. The key to her heart? Her son, Row Essex, her husband James, matcha strolls, Pilates, The Row, and niche crime and animal documentaries.
