Stuart Emmrich to Step Down as Editor of Vogue.com

[caption id="attachment_175628" align="alignright" width="150"] Stuart Emmrich[/caption] Less than a year after being named editor of Vogue.com, Stuart Emmrich is stepping down from that role, Folio: has confirmed. Emmrich, the former longtime editor of The New York Times' Styles section who joined Vogue only six months ago, will hand the editorial reins over to a successor at the end of the summer, after which point he will continue to write for Vogue.com, according to a source familiar with the situation. In a statement provided to Folio:, Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of Vogue and Condé Nast's artistic director, said it was Emmrich's decision to step down. "I'd like to thank Stuart for the editorial leadership he has brought to Vogue.com; we have all enjoyed working with him," Wintour said. "This moment is one of self-reflection for so many, and I fully respect and support his decision to pursue a different path." Though not explicitly billed as a replacement, news of Emmrich's arrival at Vogue last December came days after staffers at the Condé Nast title were informed that the magazine's creative digital director, Sally Singer, was departing after seven years in that role. Singer and Emmrich had previously overlapped at The New York Times, where Singer edited T: The New York Times Style Magazine from 2010 to 2012, before returning to Vogue. Emmrich joined The New York Times in 2002 and spent 15 years there altogether, running the Styles section from 2010 to 2017.... Continue reading at 'Folio Magazine'
