Edward Enninful, the outgoing editor-in-chief of British Vogue, has been named the UK’s most influential black person. He said the organisation behind the list had been always “so supportive” throughout his career.
The fashion journalist was voted top of the Powerlist, which was started in 2006 to showcase black role models to young people across sectors including business, science, technology and the arts. Entrants are judged on their “ability to change lives and alter events, as demonstrated over a protracted period of time and in a positive manner”.
