Chloe Malle: Facts About Vogue’s New Top Editor Chosen by Anna Wintour

Other than two years at The New York Observer between 2009 and 2011, Malle has spent the vast majority of her career at Vogue, according to her LinkedIn profile.

She joined the magazine in 2011, first as social editor, before becoming contributing editor and, in late 2023, editor of Vogue.com.

Malle and Wintour both became the top editor of Vogue at a similar age. Wintour was 38, almost 39, when her first edition came out. Wintour went on to hold the position for more than 37 years.

It was the wedding of the summer, with media outlets scrambling to cover the Sánchez-Bezos wedding in Venice, attended by the who’s who of celebrities and billionaires.

But Malle, who had previously interviewed Sánchez in 2023, got the inside scoop before the wedding, interviewing the bride for Vogue’s digital cover story.

Her mother, Candice Bergen, is an actor who won five Primetime Emmy Awards, two Golden Globes, and an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.

You might recognize her from “Miss Congeniality” or “Sex and the City.” In the latter, her mom played Enid Frick, Vogue’s editor in chief.

Malle’s father was also famous. Louis Malle was nominated for three Academy Awards, perhaps best known for the movies “Elevator to the Gallows” and “Atlantic City.” He died of lymphoma in 1995.

With two famous parents, Malle is sure to be leveled with nepo baby accusations. But, in an interview with The New York Times, she said: “There is no question that I have 100 percent benefited from the privilege I grew up in.”

Malle continued: “It’s delusional to say otherwise. I will say, though, that it has always made me work much harder. It has been a goal for a lot of my life to prove that I’m more than Candice Bergen’s daughter, or someone who grew up in Beverly Hills.”
