Chioma Nnadi, a 44-year-old journalist of Nigerian and Swiss-German descent, has been appointed as the new head of editorial content at British Vogue.
She will take over from Edward Enninful, the editor-in-chief who enjoyed a six-year tenure as both the prestigious fashion magazine’s first male and first black editor who announced his resignation in June.
Nnadi, the current editor of the New York-based Vogue, will be head of editorial content, rather than editor-in-chief. She has worked as a writer and news director for the outlet for 13 years.
The appointment also makes her the first black female head of the fashion magazine.
