After 36 years at the helm of the famous American fashion magazine, the fashion icon Anna Wintour has announced her resignation as editor-in-chief of Vogue US<\/strong>. A historic chapter closes in the world of international press and fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This decision, although anticipated for several years, was confirmed on June 26, 2025, causing a shockwave in the industry. At 75 years old, Anna Wintour is not completely leaving the scene: she will retain her roles as Chief Content Officer of Cond\u00e9 Nast and Global Editorial Director of Vogue. She will continue to influence the global editorial direction but is stepping aside for a successor to lead the American title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An influence of nearly 40 years…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s hard to imagine the fashion landscape without her. Anna Wintour, the icy icon with the impeccable bob, takes her bow after 37 years at the helm of Vogue US<\/em><\/strong>. The woman who inspired the cult character of Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada<\/em> has shaped the fashion world like few others. Born in London, she began her career in the UK before taking the reins of Vogue UK<\/em> in 1985. Two years later, she landed in New York and transformed Vogue<\/em> into a true style bible, blending editorial power, avant-garde flair, and a feared front row.
A pillar of the Met Gala that she oversees with surgical precision and an influencer ahead of her time, Anna Wintour has redefined what it means to \u201cbe fashionable.\u201d Just that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Anna Wintour has brought to fashion and designers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Last year, she was with us to present the Medal of the Order of Arts and Letters to Simon Porte-Jacquemus<\/strong>. But if for fashion people (and for Bourdieu I imagine), fashion is a theater, then Anna Wintour<\/strong> has long been its director and sometimes its playwright behind the scenes. With her impeccable bob and dark glasses as her signature, she didn\u2019t just lead Vogue: she redesigned its DNA. When she dared, as early as 1988, to feature a cover mixing faded jeans and haute couture, she broke the boundaries between luxury and everyday life in one sweep. A blend of genres that has become second nature for a whole generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anna has that rare gift of spotting the spark in a designer before they ignite the runways. Galliano<\/strong>, McQueen, Jacobs<\/strong>… So many names she has supported, propelled, and sometimes even saved. Her influence goes beyond the glossy pages of the magazine. She has brought fashion into the political, cultural, and celebrity spheres. With her, Michelle Obama<\/strong> becomes a style icon, Kim Kardashian<\/strong> graces the cover, and Vogue becomes as much an aesthetic compass as a mirror of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the high priestess of the Met Gala<\/a>, she orchestrates each year the meeting of art, fashion, and power. Under her sharp eye, fashion has continued to tell stories that are more inclusive, bolder, and more human.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anna Wintour has offered designers much more than a springboard: a vision, a framework, a breath. That of a fashion that dares, that inspires, and that, above all, never apologizes for being itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s next for Anna Wintour?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Well, she\u2019s leaving her position, but rest assured, she remains part of the Cond\u00e9 Nast group and will surely continue to attend fashion shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The announcement of Anna Wintour’s departure raises a central question: what will Vogue look like without her?<\/strong> The answer will depend on the magazine’s ability to adapt without losing its identity. Because while the Wintour era comes to an end, her impact remains indelible: rigor, elegance, prescriptive power, and a keen sense of timing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the fashion world holds its breath, one thing is certain: this departure is far from an ending; it\u2019s even a promotion. After all, we agree, it still feels a bit strange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
