NYLON Shutters Print Edition & Its Editors Are Pissed

We mean, as they should be.
The alt-girl fashion, beauty, and culture bible, Nylon magazine, which was launched in 1999 with Marvin Scott Jarrett at the helm, announced the end of its print edition this week, laying off all 12 members of the print staff effective immediately. Apparently, without any notice. While the rise of digital media is not quite a shocker at this point, seeing a shake-up like this is disturbing.
Needless to say, people are pissed - and, tbh, it's really kind of effed up.
Beauty editor Jade Taylor, who has worked with the magazine for six years, took to Instagram to express her frustration and reveal just how poorly the situation was handled by those at the top.
Nylon.com will still be up and running but it just won't be the same. R.I.P.
