Chloe Malle Emerges as Anna Wintour’s Successor at Vogue

In one of the most significant transitions within the fashion editorial landscape, Anna Wintour is said to have indicated her successor at the sector’s most influential publication. According to Puck, Chloe Malle will assume the role of Head of Editorial Content at American Vogue. This move consolidates years of speculation over the generational handover at the magazine.

Malle is no stranger to the publication. With over a decade of experience — from social editor, through the direction of Vogue.com, to co-host of the podcast The Run-Through — she has built a steady and patient career. Her presence is deeply embedded in the magazine’s DNA.

Her profile is also understood through the lens of cultural heritage. The daughter of Candice Bergen and French director Louis Malle, her biography sits at the intersection of Hollywood and fashion. This space defines part of Vogue’s imaginary. Her appointment condenses this dual dimension: cultural lineage and intimate knowledge of a machine that understands fashion as narrative, projection, and symbolic power.

Although Vogue has not yet confirmed the news, Malle is expected to take up the role ahead of New York Fashion Week on 11 September 2025. A gesture of continuity that simultaneously opens a new chapter with another voice and perspective, yet from within.
