In a statement, Guiducci said, 'The world today is spinning faster than ever, as the forces of Hollywood, politics, the arts, money, and style collide with the drama of a Verdi opera in its final act. At the center of it all, documenting the stakes and the spectacle, is Vanity Fair.'
He will oversee all markets where Vanity Fair is published, including the United States, United Kingdom, France, Italy and Spain.
Vanity Fair, revived in the early 1980s by Condé Nast, proved to be hugely influential with its cover celebrities, fashion and investigative features, packed with pages of ads from top name luxury brands. But the magazine industry as a whole isn't what it once was, and Vanity Fair has deployed a number of endeavors to capture the digital audience.
According to the Alliance for Audited Media, the circulation of Vanity Fair was about 1.25 million as of the end of last year.
Anna Wintour, chief creative officer of Condé Nast, said in a statement, that Guiducci was 'an energetic and creative editor at the center of his generation and a leader under whom Vanity Fair will grow in ways I can foresee and, no doubt, many ways I can't. None of us knows what the future will bring — only that Vanity Fair will define it under Mark.'
Guiducci has been in his position at Vogue since 2020. In their announcement, Condé Nast highlighted some of his new initiatives at Vogue, including the launch of a TikTok channel and a flagship podcast, as well as the model search Open Casting call.
Guiducci previously was editor in chief of Garage, the art publication, and he also worked in the features department at Vogue and as assistant to the managing editor at Vanity Fair.
