After Graydon, Who? -
The editor of Marie Claire, owned by Hearst, Ms. Fulenwider spent 10 years at Vanity Fair under
Mr. Carter’s tutelage before a stint as top editor at another Condé Nast title, Brides.
Of arguably more importance are Mr. Fielden’s ties to Ms. Wintour, who chose him as the founding editor of Men’s Vogue in 2005; when
that title folded, he took over Town & Country, whose high-society coverage has echoes at V. F.
Natty and comfortable around celebrities, Mr. Fielden can lean on his Wintour connection as a possible trump card.
Installing Ms. Singer at Vanity Fair would give Ms. Wintour a loyalist at one of Condé Nast’s biggest titles.
Mr. Fielden, the editor of Esquire (part of Hearst, a Condé Nast rival), told The Times in 2016, “I’m a person who likes clothes,
but I’m also a guy who worked at The New Yorker for 10 years.
But in an industry stocked with celebrity editors, he remains curiously obscure, keeping a lower
profile than peers like Mr. Carter, Ms. Wintour, and David Remnick of The New Yorker.
