Alison Tay has spent nearly 20 years on fashion’s front row as a style journalist, international columnist, celebrity stylist, and TV and radio opinionista on BBC, Sky News and CNN, and judge for the International Woolmark Prize.

Known for her instinctive and intellectual approach to fashion, Alison’s manifesto as Editor-in-Chief of the Grazia Group is to bring energy, exclusivity and luxury to the Middle East.

“Celebrating and supporting the emerging talent who are putting the Middle East on the fashion map and representing us to the rest of the world is super-important to me and to Grazia, so I’m thrilled to have been asked by Reem Acra to play a part in shaping our fashion future as a judge on Fashion Star Arabia.”
