First off, let’s stipulate that editors-in-chief do not run their own photos on the covers of their publications.
Let’s further stipulate that Dame Anna Wintour stepped down as the editor-in-chief of Vogue months ago, replaced by Chloe Malle, daughter of Candice Bergen and director Louis Malle.
But Malle is not Vogue’s editor-in-chief, either. She’s got the mouthful title Head of Editorial Content. And Wintour’s two titles trump Malle’s one. The Dame didn’t step down — she stepped up to Global Chief Content Officer and Global Editorial Director of Vogue. So, whether it was Malle or Wintour who decided to put the latter on the May issue cover of fashion’s flagship magazine, can we also agree who is clearly running the show?
