Rumors have been rife for
years that Enninful, 51, was plotting
to become the next editor of
American Vogue, which would
have meant turfing out Wintour in
the process.
But at 73, Wintour, who has
been at the helm of US Vogue for
34 years and is also the Global
Editorial Director of Vogue editions
around the world, has no plans
to go anywhere — even as
magazine circulation continues
to plummet in this difficult media
environment, her friends told Page
Six.
“People have tried to doubt
Anna, to take her down, and she’s
amazing — she just keeps on
going” said one person who knows
her well.
“Anna has no plans to retire,”
added a well-placed fashion
source, who admitted that friends
have told Wintour she should step
back and relax.
When announcing his move,
Enninful said that Wintour was part
of the decision for him to “play a
broader role in enhancing Vogue
globally.”
Still, some sources were keen to
stress that Wintour did not engineer
it as a step down for Enninful,
although it certainly takes him out
of the limelight he’s earned as
editor-in-chief. During his tenure,
he’s been celebrated for making
British Vogue a beacon of diversity.
