Anna Wintour BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

The past few days have brought Anna Wintour squarely back to the center of both fashion headlines and pop culture discourse. The most buzz-worthy news is Anna’s candid review of The Devil Wears Prada nearly twenty years after its 2006 release. Speaking to David Remnick on The New Yorker Radio Hour, Anna finally admitted that she once feared the film would cast her in a difficult light, given the widely held belief that Meryl Streep’s Miranda Priestly was based on Wintour’s own famously exacting style at Vogue. That fear, she confessed, was eventually unfounded: she pronounced the film highly enjoyable, very funny, and a “fair shot.” Anna also revealed that she attended the original premiere wearing actual Prada, blissfully unaware of what the story would entail—a fact plenty of gossips online found delicious. The timing of her comments is not accidental: news that The Devil Wears Prada sequel is set for release in May 2026 has revived old debates, with Anna’s positive review serving as publicity gold according to social media chatter. Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt will all reprise their roles, so this sequel is sure to stoke further comparisons to the real Anna as that release date approaches. Headlines from CNN, the Los Angeles Times, and across social platforms have highlighted Anna’s unexpectedly good-humored take on a character that once left her “nervous.”

In business news, Anna’s June departure as Editor in Chief of US Vogue after a monumental 37-year run remains a topic of conversation. She retains her global roles at Condé Nast as Chief Content Officer and Global Editorial Director, but announced on September 2 that Chloe Malle, previously Vogue’s longtime social media editor and the daughter of Candice Bergen and the late Louis Malle, will now lead editorial content at US Vogue. This choice has drawn both optimism and some skepticism among insiders who doubt that anyone—no matter how pedigreed—could rejuvenate Vogue in a dramatically changing magazine landscape, as noted in multiple industry reports.

On the social scene, Anna was recently spotted at the US Open in New York, turning heads as always by pairing a vibrant floral dress with a blue and white jacquard coat and snakeskin boots—a bold clashing-print ensemble that was widely covered by outlets like Woman and Home and AOL. Her presence at this major cultural event underscores that she remains a touchstone of high fashion even after scaling down her official responsibilities. No new controversies or dramatic public statements have surfaced, and her social media footprint has been minimal, with online conversation focused overwhelmingly on her style, her take on Devil Wears Prada, and speculation about Vogue’s future under Chloe Malle.
