Taylor began her career in graphic design in Australia in 1993 as junior designer on mass-market, weekly Hollywood gossip magazine Women’s Day. She then moved to The Australian Women’s Weekly, where she progressed from designer to deputy art director, then art director and finally associate art director.
A spell of freelancing on Australian titles, including Take 5 Mag, Good Medicine and New Woman, pre-empted her move to the UK in September this year.
Since her arrival she has been a freelance designer working on leading women’s titles Elle, Marie Claire, Closer and Glamour, before joining the Shape team this month.

Jarvis commented: “I’m delighted that Kristie has joined Shape and have every confidence that she will develop and enhance the design of the magazine.”
