Edward Enninful: Why I Want To Reinvent Fashion Magazines
The former editor of British Vogue on Anna Wintour, his new media business and why he thinks fashion risks going backwards on diversity.
Edward Enninful thinks fashion risks going backwards on diversity, which is why he’s launched a new media business, EE72, to promote inclusion in an anti-woke era.
The former editor of British Vogue talks to Amol about why the industry needs to appeal to all generations – from getting Gen Z on side by tackling fast fashion and affordability, to highlighting the full spectrum of beauty by focussing on ‘women of a certain age’ in the first issue of his quarterly magazine.
Amol asks him about the recent Sydney Sweeney jeans advert after the US fashion retailer American Eagle ran ads with her alongside the words: "Syndey Sweeney has great jeans".
Edward also explains why he left British Vogue and talks about his relationship with his former boss, Anna Wintour.
