In a stunning shakeup that marks the end of an era, Anna Wintour, 75, is stepping down as Editor‑in‑Chief of Vogue after an unparalleled 37‑year tenure.
Wintour first assumed the helm of Vogue U.S. in 1988, reshaping the fashion bible into a powerhouse of culture, politics, and celebrity influence.
Younger generations may know her from The Devil Wears Prada, which mirrored her famously commanding presence. Behind those sunglasses was an editor who became synonymous with the Met Gala and global fashion trends.
What’s next for Wintour?
She isn’t retiring. Wintour will retain two heavyweight positions at Condé Nast:
Global Chief Content Officer, overseeing brands like Wired, Vanity Fair, GQ, Bon Appétit and Glamour
Global Editorial Director of Vogue, supervising its editions worldwide
Who’s stepping into her shoes?
Condé Nast has officially launched a search for a new “Head of Editorial Content” to lead the U.S. edition.
