Anna Wintour, the longtime editor-in-chief of Vogue, has named Chloe Malle the outlet's new U.S. head of editorial content.
Malle is currently the editor of Vogue.com and co-host of Vogue's podcast, "The Run-Through."
Winter announced Malle's new role Tuesday in an article on Vogue.com, describing Malle as a "voracious, engaged journalist."
"Chloe has put in as many late nights as anybody at Condé Nast, all without losing her creative imagination or her sense of fun. Her colleagues admire her startling acumen but also her warmth. Her desk is a place of guidance and contagious joy," Wintour wrote, in part. "I believe that warmth, joy, experience, and keen vision are what Vogue will thrive on through the years ahead."
She continued, "At a moment of change both within fashion and outside it, we must continue to be both the standard-bearer and the boundary-pushing leader. Chloe has proven often that she can find the balance between American Vogue's long, singular history and its future on the front lines of the new. I am so excited to continue working with her, as her mentor but also as her student, while she leads us and our audiences where we've never been before."
Malle, 39, has worked in different roles across Vogue for the past 14 years.
She is the daughter of the late Louis Malle, an Oscar-winning filmmaker, and actress and former "Murphy Brown" star Candice Bergen, who also famously portrayed Carrie Bradshaw's Vogue editor on "Sex and the City."
In June, Wintour who became editor-in-chief of Vogue in 1988, announced she was searching for a new head of editorial content.
At the time, Wintour, 75, said she would continue in her role as chief content officer for Condé Nast and global editorial director at Vogue.
In those roles, Wintour will continue to oversee Condé Nast brands globally, including Wired, Vanity Fair, GQ, Architectural Digest, Condé Nast Traveler, Glamour, Bon Appétit, Tatler, World of Interiors, Allure, Mademoiselle and others, with the exception of The New Yorker.
Malle, who will continue to report to Wintour, said in a new interview with The New York Times that she has no intentions of replacing the legendary editor.
"The truth is that no one's going to replace Anna," Malle told the newspaper in an interview published Tuesday, adding, "I know that some people who were interested in this job were sort of daunted by the idea of Anna being down the hall. I'm very happy she's down the hall with her Clarice Cliff pottery."
Malle did indicate though that she won't be afraid to make changes at Vogue. She told the New York Times she is interested in releasing print issues of Vogue less frequently than the current monthly cadence, and focusing issues around specific themes.
