History To celebrate the magazines fortieth anniversary a party was held at the Palazzo Litta in Milan in 2008. The event was organised by Sozzani and numerous celebrities and creatives attended including Giorgio Armani, Naomi Campbell, Tom Ford, Janet Jackson, John Malkovich, Tilda Swinton, Donatella Versace, Anna Wintour and more.
In July of 2017, Condé Nast announced that it would be closing L'Uomo Vogue after the release of its December issue, wanting to focus on its "top brands".
However, in 2018 almost a year after the closure announcement, the magazine relaunched as a quarterly publication. It had increased in size and was now in English instead of Italian with Farneti stating, "That's the international language and it's an international magazine".
