Taylor Hill connected with C Magazine’s Winter 2023-2024 team for an interview and fashion shoot photographed in Topanga Canyon.

The rugged-outdoors mood of Taylor’s photo shoot with David Roemer [IG] syncs with her lifestyle. The story’s title ‘Taylor Hill’s Got A New Look’ , narrated by Rob Haskell, speaks to Taylor’s recent marriage to private equity investor Daniel Fryer at Devil’s Thumb Ranch in Colorado.

The Hair Cut

The other aspect to Taylor Hill’s new look is her daring haircut, an act inspired by watching the Apple TV series ‘The Super Models’. Calling it the boldest act of her life, Taylor was very impacted as Linda Evangelista shared the story of her own 1988 haircut, prompted on a shoot with photographer Peter Lindbergh and executed by Julien d’Ys.

Taylor speaks of her beloved dog Tate, who became grievously ill around the time of her wedding. The story is so deeply personal, you should read the details at C Magazine [link above].

Tate is being reborn in 2024 in an online community and marketplace for pet owners called Tate and Taylor.

“The pet industry is very crowded and confusing,” she says. “There’s just so much out there. I want other people to feel like they’re not alone, that there’s a place they can trust.”
