Vanity Fair Italia

Design and evolution of the digital experience for Vanity Fair Italia, the go-to destination for celebrity culture, entertainment, and red-carpet storytelling. The project focused on building a responsive editorial platform capable of balancing breaking news, long-form profiles, fashion and beauty coverage, and audience engagement across desktop and mobile

Alongside the product and editorial experience, I also contributed to the launch campaign for the new platform, developing both digital and print communication assets to support the rollout and reinforce the new visual identity. The campaign video featured at the beginning of this page was created as part of this launch initiative

Year: 2017

Company: Condé Nast

Vanity Fair Italia — homepage

Editorial ecosystem & content strategy

The experience was designed to support fast-paced celebrity and entertainment coverage—film, music, television, and culture—alongside fashion and beauty from the red carpet, while preserving Vanity Fair’s editorial voice and visual drama

A modular system enabled editors to surface daily stories, recurring franchises, and exclusive interviews with consistency across the homepage, article pages, and promotional modules

Vanity Fair Italia — mobile experience

Mobile-first experience

Particular attention was dedicated to mobile consumption patterns, optimizing navigation, typography, image behavior, and content hierarchy to create a seamless reading experience across devices

The goal was to make visually rich editorial formats feel immersive and intuitive while improving accessibility to content and key user journeys

Vanity Fair Italia — article template

Scalable templates & engagement

Article and gallery templates were designed as flexible content frameworks capable of adapting to different storytelling needs, from image-led narratives to in-depth editorial features

Related-content modules, editorial recirculation, and discovery patterns were integrated to extend engagement and encourage deeper exploration within the Vanity Fair Italia ecosystem
