Anna Wintour has stepped down as editor of US Vogue after 37 years, during which she was often hailed as the single most influential figure in the fashion world.
She will no longer run day-to-day editing of the fashion bible, but magazine group owner Condé Nast was quick to deny suggestions of retirement.

She will continue to hold senior roles at the group and remain Vogue’s global editorial director.

Who is Anna Wintour?

Wintour became editor-in-chief of US Vogue in 1988 and transformed it into a powerhouse that set trends, and could often make or break designers, celebrities and brands.

Known to some as “Nuclear Wintour” for her decisive leadership, such as axing work without discussion, she was also a fixture in the front row at catwalk shows with her unchanging bob haircut and sunglasses.

For many years, she has also run the Met Gala, an extravagant Manhattan charity event that attracts an A-list of stars from across fashion, film, politics and sports.
Joe Biden awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the top US honour, before leaving office in January.

Wintour was made a British dame in 2017 and in February this year became a companion of honour — an elite recognition.

Is Anna Wintour retiring?

Wintour is not expected to retire, but will continue as Condé Nast’s chief content officer. She will continue to oversee publications including Vogue, Wired, Vanity Fair, GQ, Condé Nast Traveler and Glamour.
Wintour announced at a staff meeting in New York that US Vogue would seek a new head of editorial content.
In remarks reported by the New York Times, she called it a “pivotal decision” but stressed she would not be moving out of her office.
“I’ll be turning all my attention to global leadership and working with our team of brilliant editors around the world.”
