Anna’s Party Era…
Anna Wintour is officially stepping down as editor-in-chief of Vogue—and the fashion world is collectively gasping behind its oversize sunglasses. After nearly 40 years of running the most powerful fashion magazine on the planet, Wintour is trading in her front-row seat (sort of—she’s staying on at Condé Nast in a scaled-back role) and passing the Vogue torch to a new era. But one thing we know for sure? Anna Wintour’s going-out style will never retire.
