Dame Anna delivered the news to her team on Thursday, sharing her desire to foster the next generation of editors. She emphasized her commitment to the magazine’s vision while continuing many of her duties. Wintour joked about her long-standing role as Vogue's “tennis and theatre editor in perpetuity.”
Originally hailing from London, Wintour made history when she transitioned from British Vogue to American Vogue in 1988, reshaping it into a cornerstone of fashion journalism recognized worldwide. Her legacy includes transforming the magazine’s content, spotlighting diverse models, and harmonizing high-end fashion with accessible pieces.
Outside of Vogue, Wintour has been the driving force behind the prestigious Met Gala since 1995, attracting elite celebrities and artists alike. Recognizable by her bob hairstyle and dark glasses, she humorously referred to the latter as a “prop” to help her navigate the world.
Wintour's influence has transcended mere fashion editing; she is rumored to have inspired the character of Miranda Priestly from the iconic novel "The Devil Wears Prada," penned by her former assistant Lauren Weisberger. Earlier this year, when asked by King Charles if she would consider retiring, her resolute answer was a "firm no." With Wintour's new role on the horizon, the world watches closely for what’s to come at Vogue.
