Chioma Nnadi has been appointed as the new head of British Vogue, replacing Edward Enninful.
- Nnadi will serve as the head of editorial content at the magazine and will report to Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of US Vogue and chief content officer for Condé Nast’s global editions.

- Under Edward Enninful’s leadership, British Vogue became more diverse and inclusive, championing plus-size and transgender models and featuring celebrities like Meghan Markle.

- Nnadi has demonstrated strong leadership and audience growth during her tenure at Vogue.com, driving engagement across the website and social media platforms.
