After nine neck-and-neck elimination heats in two killer rounds over the past three days of Racked's Hottest Editor Competition 2011, we've finally narrowed our top-30 hottest fashion editors down to the final three contestants: David Thielebeule, Accessories Director at Allure, who won 54.3% of the votes in his semi-final match; Kate Lanphear, Senior Style Editor at Elle, who earned 53.5% of the votes in her semi-final showdown; and Mary Kate Steinmiller, Market Editor at Teen Vogue, who edged out her competitor by winning 50.7% of the votes in her semi-final round. Now, these three worthy super-hot fashion media workers face off in our finals.
Three enter the final polling phase, only one will emerge victorious. Their super-hot fates are in your hands. Who is your favorite Hottest Editor 2011? Cast your vote after the jump.
