Meet the Team – Jessica Todd

Position: Customer Experience Specialist

Role at Unique Magazines: As the Customer Experience Specialist at Unique Magazines, my primary focus is to deliver exceptional customer service and ensure a seamless online shopping experience for all of our clients. This role allows me to combine my strong administrative skills, honed over time, with my experience in the fashion industry. With my background as a Fashion Admin Assistant, I’m all about the little details and bring a keen eye for organization to my daily tasks. With over 8 years of experience in customer-facing fashion retail roles, I am passionate about helping clients, resolving their concerns, and offering a personalised service that truly reflects the creative charm and values of Unique Magazines.

Favourite Magazines: My interest in magazines began during my Fashion Communication degree. As part of my studies, I created a fashion-focused zine, drawing inspiration from publications like Polyester Zine and Beauty Papers, which use fashion to explore themes of identity, female empowerment, and self-expression. My zine delved into the concept of womanhood, weaving personal experiences with broader collective narratives. Vogue has always been a staple in my reading list, and I was fortunate to have access to the Vogue archives at Northumbria University Library for research during my degree. While working on my zine, I was influenced by the iconic 1980s Vogue covers, which played a key role in shaping my visuals and styling choices. These archival images helped me blend timeless elegance with a modern twist, setting the mood and direction for my project.

Hobbies/Interests:My hobbies and interests are centered around my love for fashion, travel, and the outdoors. I’m passionate about exploring new cities and immersing myself in local cultures, especially through food. There’s something so exciting about trying new cuisines and uncovering hidden gems in different countries. I also cherish spending time in nature, often taking my adorable Cocker Spaniel, Belle, on scenic walks through the stunning North East countryside. Whether I’m soaking up the lively vibes with a glass of vino in a new city or strolling through lush green landscapes, I’m always in search of new experiences that fuel my creativity and sense of adventure.
