Colombian makeup artist Marcelo Gutierrez has been appointed i-D magazineâs global beauty editor at large, the publication announced Wednesday.
Gutierrez will steer the publicationâs beauty coverage across digital and print, leading an upcoming standalone beauty zine set for release in spring 2026 in concert with i-Dâs 376th issue, according to a release shared with The Business of Beauty. He will also act as a makeup artist on occasional shoots for the magazine.
Gutierrez is the latest in a series of appointments for i-D magazine since it was acquired by Karlie Klossâs Bedford Media from Vice Media in 2023. Thom Bettridge was installed as editor in chief and chief brand officer in 2024, under CEO Kloss. Australian stylist Clare Byrne was also announced as the magazineâs global fashion director on Nov 5.
Gutierrezâs work spans editorial and celebrity, with clients including Madonna, Charli XCX and supermodel Paloma Elsesser. A collection of photographs from his decade-long career, âNothing Preciousâ, was self-published in November 2024.
