Luxury fashion and travel writer and cruise speaker
Edward Quan is an editor-in-chief, luxury fashion and travel writer, and cruise speaker who engages readers and audiences through storytelling about global destinations and vibrant cultures.
His career began as a European luxury fashion buyer, collaborating with iconic names such as Hermès, Cartier, and Ferragamo. After living in the world’s style capitals, he reveals the fabulous stories of luxury fashion while championing sustainability.
Building on these themes, his luxury fashion and travel stories inspire readers and audiences to embark on new adventures.

Edward weaves master storytelling with expert insights, crafting articles and presentations that inform and captivate readers and audiences. Drawing on his experience with luxury fashion houses, cultures, and natural wonders, he offers an insider’s view of how designer goods are no longer a status symbol. Instead, for the ultra-rich, it’s about enriching, exclusive luxury travel experiences.
Over several years, he has written luxury travel and fashion stories for various publications such as Food, Wine & Travel Magazine, The Bahamas Weekly, Blush Vancouver, Retail-Insider, Travel Thru History, and his own lifestyle blog, Style Drama.
