Fashion journalist and podcaster Chioma Nnadi has been named as the new editor-in-chief of British Vogue, taking over from Edward Enninful. Nnadi, who is already the editor of New York City-based Vogue.com, is the first woman of color with a major industry-leading fashion title. “As someone who was born and raised in London, the energy of the city – its boundary-pushing style and creative scene – has shaped the way I look at the world”, said Nnadi in a statement at London Fashion Week. Anna Wintour, Vogue’s chief content officer and global editorial director, said Nnadi is “an editor and writer with an impeccable reputation”. Enninful, who will remain as an editorial advisor, said he is “thrilled” with his successor, calling Nnadi “a brilliant and unique talent”.
