Constance White has been on the style beat for years, filing copy at the New York Times, serving as fashion editor at Elle and penning a book on black contributions to the field, Stlyenoir. She joined eBay as style director, the chief challenge of which had to be convincing people that her employer had a place at the fashion table. Appointed editor-in-chief of Essence in March, that’s no longer an issue. The job opened up when Angela Burt Murray, having run afoul of readers with the appointment of a white fashion director, stepped down.
