Vogue legend Grace Coddington steps down as creative director after 30 years at the fashion magazine – but insists she has no plans to ‘sit around’ and retire
Vogue’s legendary creative director Grace Coddington has revealed that she is stepping down from her position after almost 30 years, effective immediately.
A spokesperson for Vogue confirmed that the 74-year-old fashion legend will be stepping back from her day-to-day position at the publication, instead taking on the role of creative director-at-large, while working on other projects outside the publication as she has no plans to retire.
‘I really love Vogue, it’s been in my life always, they discovered me as a model at 19,’ she told Business of Fashion. ‘I’m not running away from Vogue, because it has opened so many doors.’
