British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enninful has been named as the UK’s most influential black person.

The Ghanaian-born fashion journalist topped the annual Powerlist poll that was released on Friday and he thanked the organisation for being “so supportive”.

Mr Enninful announced back in July that he would be leaving British Vogue, which he has been the editor of since 2017, in March 2024.

He said: “Ever since I moved back to take over British Vogue, the Powerlist has always been so supportive, always there in one shape or another.

“But apart from me, it’s incredible that it shines a light on black people really breaking boundaries, who are unafraid and champion what it means to be truly diverse in their own industries. So, I’m honoured, more than anything, to be a part of this family.”

What is Edward Enniful’s net worth?

Mr Enniful has a net worth of £9 million, according to Idol Net Worth.

In June, it was reported that he bought a house in London.
