Aaron Royce
Aaron Royce covers fashion news through the lens of trends and celebrity style, turning runway moments and event dressing into clear, wearable stories for readers.
He is a fashion news writer at The Zoe Report, where he focuses on fashion, trends, celebrity style, and related coverage across the site. He also works in a fashion news editing role at The Daily Front Row, extending his reporting into the industry’s front row and party circuit. Alongside these core roles, he writes as a contributing and freelance journalist for outlets including People, InStyle, and other fashion and lifestyle magazines, with a focus on shopping, beauty, and culture.
Celebrity premieres, weddings, and red carpet style
Royce’s work at The Zoe Report often centers on major cultural moments, using celebrity dressing to show how trends move from the runway to real life. In his coverage of Reese Witherspoon and Lexi Minetree’s coordinated pink looks for the “Elle” premiere, he breaks down color, silhouette, and styling choices to show how a single hue can define an event’s visual mood. He follows similar lines in stories that catalog all the looks Selena Gomez, Emma Stone, and other stars wear to high-profile celebrations like Taylor Swift’s wedding, treating the guest list as a fashion narrative.
Across these event pieces, he writes in a way that invites readers to see red carpet outfits as a set of components they can interpret and adopt. Headlines that frame a celebrity outfit as “a look anyone can copy” underline his interest in translating star style into practical guidance rather than leaving it as distant spectacle. His story on Jennifer Lopez’s pink birthday brunch dress, for instance, combines a detailed description of the breezy silhouette with concrete suggestions on how to copy the look for $43, tying aspirational dressing to accessible price points.
Trend explainers and runway-focused fashion news
Beyond single events, Royce writes trend explainers that track how aesthetics evolve and recur across seasons. In his piece “Romantic Fashion Is Back — And We’re In Love,” he defines romantic dressing through specific fabric and design details, pointing to silks and satins, soft color palettes, lace, delicate florals, bows, and their darker counterparts like fraying, feathers, and intricate leatherwork. He connects the trend to cinematic references such as Sofia Coppola’s film “Marie Antoinette,” showing how costume design and historical storytelling inform contemporary fashion imagery.
Royce also reports on runway and calendar news, including coverage of New York Fashion Week’s Spring 2027 schedule framed as “full of new beginnings.” In this kind of piece, he follows the structure of fashion news reporting: identifying the season, mapping key shows and changes on the schedule, and signaling emerging directions for designers and brands. Taken together, his trend and runway work shows a preference for concrete detail—fabric, cut, color, reference—over abstract commentary, making it easier for readers to see how high-level themes appear in clothes they encounter every day.
Shopping recommendations across fashion, beauty, and lifestyle
Royce extends this descriptive style into service journalism, where he curates products that align with the trends and celebrity looks he covers. As a contributing writer for People, he focuses on shopping and recommendations across fashion, beauty, lifestyle, and more, positioning his selections as “insightful” picks rather than generic lists. His work there mirrors his celebrity coverage: outfits and trends become starting points for practical advice on what to buy, why it works, and how it fits into a reader’s wardrobe.
His profile with InStyle notes that he brings experience across fashion, beauty, and news coverage, rooted in a personal passion for cinema and costume design. That background shows up in how he frames shopping content: items are often described in terms of their visual impact, narrative feel, and relation to larger stylistic moods rather than as isolated products. Across his portfolio, he covers fashion, beauty, fragrance, jewelry, skincare, menswear, wellness, accessories, shoes, pop culture, and celebrity news, which allows his recommendations to move from clothing into complete looks and routines.
Multi-outlet fashion editor and writer
Royce’s core beat remains fashion, but his roles span reporting, editing, and cross-outlet collaboration. At The Zoe Report, he operates as a fashion news writer covering fashion, trends, and celebrity style, supplying both quick-turn event pieces and deeper trend features. In his fashion news editing work at The Daily Front Row, he engages with the inner workings of the industry, including shows, parties, and the personalities that define the contemporary fashion scene.
He works as a freelance fashion editor and writer, a setup that supports ongoing contributions to magazines and digital platforms across the fashion and lifestyle space. His public work notes recent fashion coverage for Marie Claire, adding another title to a roster that already includes People and InStyle. Across these outlets, his stories keep a consistent focus on fashion’s visual language, celebrity influence, and shoppable outcomes, whether he is reviewing a runway schedule, dissecting a red carpet, or recommending a breezy dress to kickstart the season.

She focuses on vintage clothing, modesty, subversion, and how old styles gain new meaning. In guides such as her Upper West Side piece, she treats locations as mood boards and supporting characters, using sensory detail and lived-in references to map the cultural influences behind her clothes and the world her label inhabits.
