Reed joins a growing number of high-profile fashion editors who have jumped from the glossy pages and into the retail field. Harriet Quick, British Vogue 's ex-fashion features director, recently moved to luxury shopping destination Luxup, whilst former fashion editor at the same publication, Kate Phelan, ended her 18-year tenure at Vogue last year to become Topshop's fashion director. Likewise, former editor of Harper's Bazaar's, Lucy Yeomans, recently left the publication to join Net-A-Porter as editor-in-chief of their magazine and the Financial Times 's former deputy fashion editor, Nicola Copping, left the paper in 2010 to edit Harrods's online magazine, The Review .
