On today’s episode of Biased, Paper Magazine fashion editor Mario Abad tells us about his career in fashion journalism, his role as an editor, and his thoughts on fashion media today.

Mario and I also discuss writing about fashion independently, as a freelancer, and as part of a publication. Plus, we dive deep into the evolution of fashion media, the importance of writing about fashion in a meaningful way, online fashion commentary, and how publications can keep good brand relationships while still reporting transparently. We also talk about our shared love for brand quarterly financial reports and our favorite fashion writers today.

Mario is a writer and editor living in New York City. He's currently the fashion editor at Paper Magazine where he's been for the past two years and has also written style and culture pieces for Fashionista, Men's Health, Footwear News, Robb Report and Forbes.
