Ib Kamara To Step Down as 'Dazed' Editor-in-Chief
The Off-White™ designer will exit the magazine after four years at its helm.
After four years at the magazine’s helm, Ib Kamara is stepping down as editor-in-chief of Dazed. The fashion titan, who’s also an influential stylist and the creative director of Off-White™, will reveal his final issue for the publication in June.
Kamara joined the magazine in 2021, and throughout his tenure, he struck the ideal balance of fame-filled cover stories (starring the likes of Rihanna, Harry Styles, A$AP Rocky, and more) and meaningful spotlights on undiscovered creative talents. Notably, his work also frequently championed social issues, including women’s rights, LGBTQ+ rights, and Indigenous rights, as well as protests regarding police brutality, hijab bans, and environmental laws.

“I would like to thank Jefferson, Sus, and the Dazed team for always supporting our full expression without boundaries. I am so proud of my team and all the collaborators I have worked with on the pages of Dazed,” said Kamara.
He added, “I’ll be forever honored by the opportunity to have been among the creative leaders of this iconic platform, now becoming part of the infamous alumni who collectively continue to shape the culture. Last of all, I look to the future of Dazed and am excited for what is to come – as the baton is handed down and more doors are opened for a new generation of creatives waiting to have their voices heard.”
Dazed has not yet announced Kamara’s successor.
