In a statement from the publishing house Condé Nast, where she has worked since 1983, it was stated that Wintour will retain her other positions as global editorial director of Vogue, overseeing the brand's international direction, as well as chief content officer of the publishing house Condé Nast. In this role, she is also responsible for magazines Wired, Vanity Fair, GQ, Glamour, and Bon Appetit.
After she steps down as editor-in-chief, this position will no longer exist. Instead, there will be a "head of editorial content"—a new position in American Vogue.
Wintour will remain the most influential person in Vogue, overseeing all editions, including those published in the UK, France, Italy, and other countries. The head of editorial content will manage the day-to-day operations of American Vogue.
This change aligns with the reshuffling that began in 2020. Before this, each international Vogue magazine had its own respected editor-in-chief and operated more or less independently. Five years ago, when Wintour took over the management of these magazines as their global editorial director, she replaced their editors (typically with younger) heads of editorial content.
Anna Wintour is 75 years old and is one of the most influential figures in the world of modern fashion. The journalist has led Vogue longer than any editor-in-chief in the magazine's history. It is believed that Wintour served as the prototype for actress Meryl Streep's character Miranda Priestly in the 2006 Hollywood film "The Devil Wears Prada".
