Did Anna<br />

Wintour<br />

Nudged Out<br />

Edward<br />

Enninfold as UK<br />

Vogue Editor?<br />

FEATURE<br />

The Devil Wears Prada:<br />

By Sara Nathan,<br />

Edited by Amenna Daayo<br />

The fashion world is abuzz over whether Anna<br />

Wintour nudged out UK Vogue editor, Edward<br />

Enninfold. Did She?<br />

When Edward Enninful<br />

announced in June that<br />

he was stepping down<br />

as editor-in-chief of<br />

British Vogue and taking<br />

on a rather bland-sounding new role<br />

at Condé Nast — Global Creative<br />

and Cultural Advisor of Vogue — the<br />

gossip began to fly: Did the move<br />

have Anna Wintour’s fingerprints all<br />

over it?<br />

Wags compared it to the moment<br />

in “The Devil Wears Prada” when<br />

formidable fashion editor Miranda<br />

Priestley out-maneuvers her French<br />

foe Jacqueline Follet, who had<br />

been gunning for Miranda’s job, by<br />

getting her another role.<br />

The hit movie, of course, was<br />

based on the 2003 novel by Lauren<br />

Weisberger — one of Wintour’s<br />

former assistants.<br />

But some in the industry say<br />

the move was a shrewd one to<br />

keep Enninful within the fold as he’s<br />

become a fashion world celebrity.<br />
