Anna Wintour defined American Vogue and influenced global fashion for nearly four decades. After 37 years at the helm, the iconic editor-in-chief is retiring. Wintour announced the news to her staff in June, signaling the end of an era but she's not going too far. The 75-year-old global editorial director of Vogue and chief content officer for Condé Nast, Anna Wintour, informed staff members on Thursday that she will be looking for a new head of editorial content at American Vogue, as per a report by WWD.

In a playful and carefree photo taken by Peter Lindbergh, model Michaela Bercu wore a $10,000 Christian Lacroix sweater and $50 jeans on her debut cover (the November 1988 issue), marking the first time denim was featured on the cover of Vogue. By featuring celebrities on the cover, this innovative cover debut heralded another significant magazine advancement and marked the beginning of a new era in magazine cover design.

She reversed the trend in 2009 by permitting cameras to enter Vogue's hallowed realm while the magazine was creating its yearly "September issue." As Wintour and her team put together the biggest September issue to date, the documentary, The September Issue, documented their daily activities, as per a report by People. Wintour was appointed Condé Nast's artistic director in 2013, and in 2019 she was promoted to global content advisor, earning her third position. The name of Wintour's replacement is still unknown.

The real 'Devil Wears Prada' bows out? Anna Wintour steps down after 37 iconic years

After 37 years, Anna Wintour is stepping down as editor-in-chief of American Vogue, marking the end of an era defined by groundbreaking covers and a significant influence on global fashion. While continuing as Condé Nast's global chief content officer, her departure from the daily operations of Vogue signals a major shift. Wintour's legacy extends beyond fashion, shaping culture and conversation. After nearly four decades of defining fashion's front row, Anna Wintour is officially stepping down as editor-in-chief of American Vogue. Yes, that Anna Wintour, the woman behind the bob, the shades, and a whole era of fashion that spanned denim on the cover to Beyoncé in couture. Her exit, confirmed by multiple fashion insiders, marks the end of a chapter that shaped not just a magazine, but the global fashion narrative as we know it. She's not leaving Condé Nast entirely, far from it. Wintour, now 75, will continue to serve as the company's global chief content officer and editorial director of Vogue worldwide. But her daily grip on American Vogue, a role she held since 1988, is coming to a close. And that's a big deal. Think about it: her first cover broke every unwritten rule of fashion publishing. In place of pearls and polish, she put a model in jeans. Yes, jeans, on Vogue! Michaela Bercu wore a $50 denim pair with a $10,000 Christian Lacroix top, and just like that, fashion shifted. The image wasn't about status or trend forecasting; it was instinct. It was intuition meeting influence. That's what made Wintour Wintour. Met Gala 2025: As fashion's biggest night is fast appraoching we are here to know more about Anna Wintour, Vogue's editor-in-chief and one of the biggest names in the world of fashion. Here's all you need to know about Anna Wintour. She didn't just dress the cover, she redefined it. Before her, supermodels graced the glossies. After her, it was Madonna, Gwyneth, and Michelle Obama. She turned the Vogue cover into a cultural billboard and everyone else followed suit. But her legacy isn't just stitched in silk and sequins. Wintour was notoriously intimidating. So much so that The Devil Wears Prada's ice-cold Miranda Priestly felt more like a documentary than fiction. (Wintour showed up to the film's premiere in Prada, naturally.) And then came The September Issue, the 2009 documentary that cracked open the glossy fortress of Vogue, revealing the intensity, vision, and exhaustion behind fashion's most important issue. Suddenly, she wasn't just the myth, she was a very real woman calling the shots with sharp precision and an even sharper eye. Her career has been a masterclass in reinvention: from Vogue's editor-in-chief to Condé Nast's artistic director, then global content advisor, and now a global overseer of Vogue, GQ, Vanity Fair, and beyond. What happens next for Vogue? We don't know yet. No replacement has been announced. But filling those iconic Manolos won't be easy. Still, Wintour isn't just leaving a seat at the table, she's left the whole damn blueprint. And whoever follows will have to do more than just edit a magazine. They'll have to shift culture, spark conversation, and see the winds of change before they blow. And that, more than any headline or handbag, is her truest legacy.
