British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enninful promoted to new role

After six years at the helm, Enninful is poised to take on new global role at Conde Nast next year

It's one of the most coveted jobs in fashion. But, six years after being named editor-in-chief of British Vogue, Edward Enninful is stepping down from the position. Or, rather, stepping up to take a new global role at the publisher Conde Nast that invites speculation he occupies pole position to one day take over from the legendary editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour.

I am excited to share that from next year I will be stepping into the newly appointed position of editorial advisor of British Vogue and global creative and cultural advisor of Vogue, where I will continue to contribute to the creative and cultural success of the Vogue brand globally while having the freedom to take on broader creative projects," Enninful wrote to staff.
