Succeeding Gilles Bensimon, Joe Zee, and Alex Gonzalez, Ruba Abu-Nimah becomes the first woman to become Elle’s U.S.’s creative director since the magazine’s inception in 1985. Abu-Nimah has an extensive background in design and creative direction working for brands like Bobbi Brown, Tiffany and Shiseido, where she is currently the global creative director.
Abu-Nimah’s expertise, keen eye for details, connections to global style and affinity for streetwear and sneakers, is one we admire and look forward to see in action. Her tenure at Elle magazine will begin on May 15, 2017.
