What Does Chloe Malle at Vogue Mean for Fashion Right Now?

What Does Chloe Malle at Vogue Mean for Fashion Right Now?

Chloe Malle has been named the new Head of Editorial Content at American Vogue, taking on the leadership role long held by Anna Wintour. Malle, 39, is the daughter of actress Candice Bergen and director Louis Malle. She has worked at Vogue for years, helping grow its digital presence with newsletters, podcasts, and special projects.

While Anna Wintour is stepping back from her title as editor-in-chief, she is not leaving Vogue—she remains Condé Nast’s Chief Content Officer and Vogue’s global editorial director. In short: Anna is still in control, but Chloe is now responsible for shaping the magazine’s day-to-day editorial vision.

This change marks an important moment for fashion media. It shows how legacy brands like Vogue are trying to stay relevant in a world where digital platforms and social media shape taste as much as print. Whether Chloe Malle can balance tradition with innovation—and open doors to new voices—will define her success.

What Is It About New York City?

What Is It About New York City?

New York is the fashion capital of the U.S.—a city where beauty, power, and capitalism collide. And at the center of it all is Anna Wintour. A woman I’ve admired, questioned, envied, and never understood. With everything happening in the world, the fashion world’s ability to carry on like nothing’s wrong feels like a kind of oblivion. I love fashion, but I can’t ignore the cost of the world it thrives in.
