About Carrie Donovan
Carrie Donovan was an American fashion editor for Vogue, Harper's Bazaar and The New York Times Magazine. In the 1990s she became known for her work in Old Navy commercials where she wore her trademark large eyeglasses and black clothing, often declaring the merchandise "Fabulous!". In almost all of the commercials, she appeared alongside Magic the dog and various other stars from TV and fashion. She was often mistaken for Natalie Schafer in the commercials because of the presence of multiple sitcom characters from the 1970s. Donovan was recruited by The New York Times Magazine in 1955 after she graduated from Parsons School of Design.
