Career
Robin attended Central Saint Martins, in 1982, with a degree in graphic design, the same year as John Galliano. There, he met Terry Jones (i-D), co-founder and Editor-in-chief of i-D magazine. He joined the design team of the magazine adding a layer of bitmapped computer graphics and it was at i-D that Robin discovered his passion for editorial design.
In 1984, he joined The Face magazine alongside Neville Brody, shaping its groundbreaking visual identity and establishing it as a style and fashion bible of its generation. Robin forged links with photographers such as Nick Knight, Mario Testino, and Juergen Teller, who have all become leaders in their fields today.
In 1986, he became a Contributing Editor for the launch of the men’s magazine Arena. A year later, he was approached by Carla Sozzani, and together they launched Italian Elle with him as Art Director. Robin brought on his photographer friends including Steven Meisel, Paolo Roversi, Sarah Moon, Bruce Weber, Peter Lindbergh, and more.
Returning to London in 1993, Derrick joined British Vogue as Art Director and later as Creative Director. During his 19 years at the magazine, he achieved the highest-selling issue in its history, as well as Campaign magazine’s Cover of the Year. He created numerous iconic covers with Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Liz Hurley, and Princess Diana. Meanwhile, Robin continued to bring in photography recruits such as Craig McDean, Mert and Marcus, Patrick Demarchelier, Lachlan Bailey, Emma Summerton, Terry Richardson, and artists like Marc Quinn, Tracey Emin, and Sam Taylor Wood.
In 2005, Robin began working as a contributing Creative Director at Giorgio Armani, overseeing campaigns for fashion, accessories, fragrance, and beauty.
