Do you travel places being a magazine editor for a good magazine?

Question

In New York, such as Allure magazine? Or Cosmogirl, Seventeen?? If so, then where to? States or different countries?
Why must we travel?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Well obviously Paris & Milan for the shows. I don't think editors for Cosmogirl & Seventeen do that much traveling & from what I can tell they don't attend the shows in Paris & Milan since they're "teen" magazines and not high fashion. Allure editors travel though. I know for a fact that Linda Wells & Paul Cavaco go to the shows since I've seen them in front rows on style.com. Besides fashion shows, an editor might travel to report on something for the magazine and sometimes they may be invited somewhere by a designer, etc. Editors for high fashion magazines definitley do travel though, that's a fact.

Answer 2

Yes, you travel. I was an editor for 12-years. I traveled at least every other month - all over the world for my publication. Most of it is schmoozing.
