Who is Edward Enninful?
Born in Ghana, Edward Enninful moved to the UK with his family at a young age, where his mother was a seamstress. Enninful was spotted at the age of 16 by model scouts. By 18 he was a creative director at i-D magazine and then became a contributor at Vogue. He became known for edgy, elegant fashion direction.
But soon he was serving up covers with controversy too, not just elegance, whether Nicki Minaj dressed as a French Courtesan or featuring plus-sized models when the world was in skinny heroin-chic rehab.
With an OBE and a cluster of awards to his name, he's more decorated than a Dolce and Gabbana purse.
It's not hard to see why Vogue were clamouring to call him back. Though we'll miss Alexandra Shulman, we can't help put have high hopes for Mr Enninful.

As a Vogue contributor, Enninful spearheaded Italian Vogue's Black Issue in 2008, featuring only black models. The magazine had to print an additional 40,000 copies due to unprecedented demand. Enninful styled the women, who included Naomi Campbell and Jourdan Dunn. His Belle Vere shoot (above) featured plus size models and caused a serious stir.
