Career

Editorial work

Clark founded fashion magazine Lula in 2005. Clark credited her creation of Lula with her frustration with the sexualization of women in fashion magazines, wanting instead to make "a magazine of women looking at women, without that competitiveness and that hard edge that we think we need as we get older."

In 2013 Clark announced that she was resigning as Lula's editor-in-chief. Instead she was leaving to create a new type of magazine for older women, Violet Book, which Clark launched in 2014. Clark admitted in an interview that the magazine was inspired by "the way youth is over-celebrated."
