Nic Screws is a New York-based fashion editor, stylist & consultant. She is currently the style director at Bloomberg Media.
Her 12-year-long career in the magazine industry started in the editorial department at Men’s Health, where her unintentional foray into fashion also began. From there, Nic went on to help launch Rodale’s high-end men’s lifestyle magazine Best Life. Jobs at Lucky & Travel + Leisure followed, books & experiences she credits with giving her a fashion education.
In the spring of 2008 she joined Esquire as fashion market editor, a role that involved covering the menswear market, representing the brand at the seasonal fashion collections & helping to conceptualize the monthly style editorial content. She rose to the position of senior fashion market editor, spending 4 years producing and styling the monthly front-of-book style section. Beyond print, Nic also contributed greatly to Esquire’s growing online presence—lending her female perspective on men’s fashion in online features such as shopping & styling guides.
She left the venerable brand after 6 year to accept the position as the first-ever style director at Bloomberg Media, a position she has held since August 2014.
Nic’s long tenure at Esquire, and directorship at Bloomberg, has made her a sought after menswear expert. She has been quoted in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, USA Today, ABC Radio and the Daily News, among others.
In addition to her work at Bloomberg, Nic regularly styles & consults for clients such as P&G Prestige, Dockers, J Brand, and members of the NFL and NHL, all who call upon her editorial eye to help elevate their brand & image. Among the list of professional athletes she has styled: Russell Westbrook, Tom Brady, Henrik Lundqvist, Dwayne Wade and Victor Cruz.
Nic is a graduate of the University of Florida where she earned a bachelor of science degree in magazine journalism in 2003. In the spring of 2013, she returned to her alma mater (albeit remotely) as an adjunct professor, teaching a course entitled fashion writing & journalism.
She lives in Brooklyn with her husband Mark and their goldendoodle, Hudson.
