Who is Cat Hufton?

Cat Hufton is a freelance journalist and writer who has worked for some of fashion’s most iconic companies and written for the world’s best known magazines and newspapers.

Cat has 18 years of experience in the fashion and beauty industry, beginning her career as a copy editor at Net-a-Porter and MATCHES FASHION. This experience gave her an in-depth knowledge of luxury brands and up-and-coming designers, not to mention a discerning eye for what really stands out about a product and whether it’s worthy of investment or not.

Cat has been freelance for nearly a decade which led her to widen her scope into beauty and skincare, health and wellbeing, and parenting and travel, in addition to her specialised knowledge of fashion. During this time Cat has written extensively for several British and American publications including the Telegraph, Byrdie, WWD, Footwear News, the Independent, Good Housekeeping, Elle, and Grazia. Career highlights have included interviewing musicians such as Self Esteem and Pixie Lott, British Olympian Bianca Williams and social campaigners and influencers such as Anna Whitehouse and Tally Rye.

When she is not working for clients and editors, Cat co-hosts the ‘But in Reality’ podcast on entertainment and pop culture. She also has a Substack dedicated to working parents called The Freelance Parent.
