About Madeline
Madeline Hirsch is a fashion editor, blogger, and founder of SheforStyle.com. After graduating with a journalism degree from Notre Dame, she dove into the fashion media world – serving as an editor at Byrdie, Brides, and Glamour.
Now based back in her hometown of New York City, Madeline runs SheforStyle while also regularly contributing to top-tier publications. She lives by the mantra “dress fearlessly” – both in her writing and personal wardrobe.
Fashion Background
Madeline grew up flipping through Vogue and obsessing over fashion week. She landed her first industry gig as an intern at a PR agency while studying at Notre Dame. This behind-the-scenes look only further fueled her drive to work in fashion and media.
After college, Madeline took on roles at Byrdie, Brides, and Glamour – covering everything from runway trends to celebrity style. She developed an eye for what real women want to read and wear. After years of editing other publications, Madeline felt ready to launch her own platform.
Launching SheforStyle
Madeline came up with the idea for SheforStyle after having a hard time finding a fashion site that truly spoke to her. She wanted something that combined high-fashion vibes with real, down-to-earth style advice.
What began as her personal passion project has now grown into a go-to digital destination, trusted by millions of women looking for genuine fashion inspiration and practical tips.
My Mission with SheforStyle
I want to help women feel confident in their style. The media often shows an unrealistic or intimidating version of fashion, and that’s not what style should be about. I’m here to break it down — turning runway and celebrity looks into outfits that work in real life.
My goal is to help women build a wardrobe full of pieces they love and actually enjoy wearing. From creating a capsule closet, to nailing office outfits, to styling the latest trends — I’ve got you covered.
SheforStyle is also a space where I highlight female founders and promote sustainable fashion. To me, fashion should be fun, approachable, and something that makes you feel good — inside and out.
