After 37 years, Anna Wintour has stepped down as the Editor-in-Chief of Vogue, and it feels as though an end of an era has taken place for international fashion lovers, across generations.
Her sharp blond bob and sleek sunglasses have become synonymous with the luxurious fashion industry and will surely be missed as the face of Vogue.
Anna's unexpected announcement was first shared with her staff during a meeting on June 25, 2025, and the news spread like wildfire.
So how much is the iconic mogul's net worth you ask? Anna is raking in a grand total of $50 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

She may be stepping down from the iconic position, but she is stepping into the roles of Conde Nast's Global Chief Content Officer, and she will also serve as the Global Editorial Director at Vogue.
As Anna settles into the new job titles, Vogue will begin searching for her replacement, who will have big heels to fill, so to speak.

The first cover that she oversaw featured model Michaela Bercu, and it was the first time that an American staple of denim was displayed on the cover, along with a $10,000 Christian Lacroix sweater, which showcased Anna's creative vision.

Anna recalled to Vogue: "It was so unlike the studied and elegant close-ups that were typical of Vogue's covers back then, with tons of makeup and major jewelry. This one broke all the rules."

She expressed: "Afterwards, in the way that these things can happen, people applied all sorts of interpretations: It was about mixing high and low, Michaela was pregnant, it was a religious statement. But none of these things was true. I had just looked at that picture and sensed the winds of change. And you can’t ask for more from a cover image than that."
