Malle may be stepping into Wintour's low-heeled slingbacks, but she'll report to the original wearer while taking over day-to-day operations at the U.S. edition. And gone is the storied “editor-in-chief” title that Wintour held for nearly 40 years.Malle, 39, is the daughter of actor Candice Bergen and the late French director Louis Malle. She joined Vogue as social editor in 2011, moved on to contributing editor in 2016 and has held her current position since 2023. In June, she interviewed the “Vogue has already shaped who I am, now I’m excited at the prospect of shaping Vogue,” Malle said in the announcement. Since late June, when Wintour told staff that she was giving up that title, a handful of names to succeed her were tossed around. Among them were Eva Chen, vice president of fashion partnerships at Meta; Nicole Phelps, global director of Vogue Runway and Vogue Business; and Sara Moonves, editor-in-chief of W magazine. Other names that floated about soon after the job went up for grabs are Vogue’s fashion news director Mark Holgate, British Vogue’s head of editorial content Chioma Nnadi and Vogue.com’s digital style director Leah Faye Cooper. Malle and Nnadi co-host the Vogue podcast, “The Run-Through with Vogue.” The news that Malle got the job comes ahead of the latest round of shows at New York Fashion Week next week. The Brown graduate and mother of two young kids has been outspoken about her liberal-leaning politics, just as Wintour has. “I actually love working with Anna, because I love someone telling me exactly what needs to be done and exactly what she thinks about something,”Vogue was founded as a society journal 134 years ago. After Condé Nast acquired it in 1909, it became a traditional industry mainstay with models on the cover, static close-up photography done in studios and a focus on high fashion and heavy makeup. Wintour, a risk-taker who took over the title in 1988, saw the mass appeal in a broader approach. She expanded international editions, elevated fashion's connections to pop culture and began putting celebrities, athletes, music stars and politicians on the covers. Wintour went for a high-low approach to fashion and favored storytelling in photo shoots done outdoors. She embraced then-emerging designers, including Marc Jacobs, John Galliano and Alexander McQueen, through initiatives like the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund. And she transformed the Met Gala from a small, private fundraiser to a global event and fashion’s most important night. Considered the fashion bible, American Vogue has had several notable editors throughout its history. Preceding Wintour were Diana Vreeland and Grace Mirabella , among others. “Chloe has proven often that she can find the balance between American Vogue’s long, singular history and its future on the front lines of the new,” Wintour said in the statement on Malle’s appointment. The retirement of the editor-in-chief title brings Vogue in line with changes throughout the Condé Nast universe. When Radhika Jones stepped down as Vanity Fair's editor-in-chief earlier this year, her role was replaced by a “global editorial director,” found in Mark Guiducci. American Vogue joins most every market where Condé Nast operates in the change to a head of editorial content, who reports to a global editorial director. Though Vogue has editions spanning the world, from Britain and France to China and India, Malle's focus will be on American Vogue. As Condé Nast's chief content officer, Wintour will continue to oversee every brand, including Vogue, Wired, Vanity Fair, GQ, AD, Condé Nast Traveler, Glamour, Bon Appétit, Tatler, World of Interiors, Allure and more, with the exception of The New Yorker, where editor David Remnick retains control.“In effect, the addition of a new editorial lead for Vogue US will allow Wintour greater time and flexibility to support the other global markets that Condé Nast serves,” said a Vogue statement in June. “And it goes without saying,” Wintour joked back then, “that I plan to remain Vogue’s tennis and theater editor in perpetuity.”“Anybody in a creative field knows how essential it is never to stop growing in one’s work. When I became the editor of Vogue, I was eager to prove to all who might listen that there was a new, exciting way to imagine an American fashion magazine,” she told staff. “Now, I find that my greatest pleasure is helping the next generation of impassioned editors storm the field with their own ideas, supported by a new, exciting view of what a major media company can be,” she said.
