Under Kicca Menoni and later Valeria Palermi (2002–2021)

Following Hamauis departure, Kicca Menoni (editor-in-chief of Italian Marie Claire, 1994 to 2002) was appointed editor-in-chief. Vittorio Zucconi contributed to the supplement during this period.

Contemporary era, under Emanuele Farneti (2022–present)

Emanuele Farneti became editor-in-chief of the supplement on 1 November 2021. Valeria Palermi exited the position on 31 October. Farneti previously served as the editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia from 2017 to 2021.

In November 2024, D The Biannual was launched as an bi-annual spinoff of D la Repubblica published in English and distributed around the world. Published in mid-April and mid-October (from 2025), the magazine was created to overcome the issues that D la Repubblica faced trying to cater to a growing international audience.
