British Vogue has confirmed Edward Enninful as its first male editor.<\/p>\n

Enninful, who has previously worked for Italian and American Vogue, will take over from Alexandra Shulman, who announced her departure in January.<\/p>\n

Cond\u00e9 Nast International’s Jonathan Newhouse said Enninful was “an influential figure in the communities of fashion, Hollywood and music”.<\/p>\n

He is currently the fashion and creative director at W Magazine, where he has worked since 2011.<\/p>\n

The 45-year-old will start his new role on 1 August.<\/p>\n

After the news was announced, designer Marc Jacobs tweeted: “Congratulations to our longtime friend @Edward_Enninful, the new editor of British Vogue! We can’t wait to see what you do! \u2764\ufe0f”<\/p>\n

  • Born in Ghana, he moved to the UK and started his fashion career aged 16 when he was spotted by a model scout in London.<\/li>\n
  • He began working alongside the founders of i-D magazine, and was promoted to fashion director aged just 19, a position he held for more than two decades.<\/li>\n
  • He is well connected. Very well. His Twitter profile features him with Michelle Obama.<\/li>\n
  • He was appointed OBE in the Queen’s 2016 Birthday Honours for services to diversity in the fashion industry.<\/li>\n
  • He is good mates with Pharrell.<\/li>\n
  • Some of the biggest names in fashion have worked with him, including Giorgio Armani, Christian Dior, Dolce and Gabbana, Mulberry, Valentino, Calvin Klein, Fendi, Gucci, Hugo Boss and Missoni.<\/li>\n

    Caroline Rush, chief executive of the British Fashion Council, told the BBC: “Anything that promotes diversity and gender equality in the industry is incredibly important, but there’s no doubt that Edward’s been appointed because of his talent.”<\/p>\n

    “He brings a very distinct point of view in terms of the imagery that he has been associated with, and I think that’s going to be really exciting to see how that is translated into the pages of Vogue.”<\/p>\n
