Vogue Design Director Danko Steiner Departs; Wintour Recruits Raúl Martinez

A year and a half after he stepped up to replace longtime Vogue design director Charles Churchward, Danko Steiner has decided to leave the magazine. He is concluding his four-year tenure at Vogue to pursue photography, according to a report from WWD. Editor-in-chief Anna Wintour is bringing in Raúl Martinez, principal and chief creative officer of AR New York, as creative consultant. Martinez, whose firm has masterminded branding and advertising for the likes of Brioni and Narciso Rodriguez, has a history with Wintour, having worked with her to relaunch House and Garden and later serving as Vogue‘s creative director.
