    Social Media Editor

    Dionne Brighton is Social Media Editor at Marie Claire UK, where she leads the brand’s social platforms and digital storytelling. Recognised for her innovative approach to social-first content, she was nominated for a BSME Talent Award for her work in growing the brand’s social presence and shaping its voice across TikTok, Instagram and beyond.

    She began her career at Marie Claire UK as a writer, covering fashion, beauty and wellness, before freelancing regularly for the title as well as contributing to Glamour UK and Woman & Home. Her bylines range from decoding the latest nail trends and interviewing Kendall Jenner’s makeup artist, to discovering which perfume matches your star sign, tracking down the exact loafers Hailey Bieber is wearing, and road-testing the newest wellness craze. This breadth of coverage has cemented her expertise in turning cultural moments into compelling, accessible content.

    Now, as Social Media Editor, Dionne combines her background in lifestyle writing with a sharp understanding of digital culture, creating content that connects with both loyal readers and new audiences. She studied Literature at the University of East Anglia and grew up in North London, where she first developed her love of writing, style and beauty. Passionate about the future of women’s media and digital innovation, she continues to explore the intersection of fashion, beauty and social culture.
