Dame Anna Wintour DBE (/ˈwɪntər/; born 3 November 1949) is a British-American journalist and editor. She has been editor-in-chief of Vogue since 1988.
People constantly make the mistake of comparing London with New York, Milan and Paris and that's not what it's about. London has its own fashion identity. You come here to find the next Alexander McQueen or John Galliano.
Well it just looks so ugly. Is it a boy or is it a girl?
There's a new kind of woman out there…She doesn't have time to shop anymore. She wants to know what and why and where and how.
I've never taken a selfie and I don't plan to start now.
I've been very lucky to put women that I sincerely admire on the cover of 'Vogue:' the then First Lady and now Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and, more recently, First Lady Michelle Obama. Those were benchmarks for the magazine, and certainly covers that I've been very, very proud of.
Gisele Bundchen, along w Kate Moss, is a phenomenon. I wish models knew they have to have a personality
Fashion's not about looking back. It's always about looking forward.
The gossip might make better reading, but the simple fact of the matter is that it isn't true.
With all the new media outlets out there, with all the noise, a voice of authority and calm like Vogue becomes more important than ever. The more eyes on fashion, the more opinions about fashion, the more exploration of fashion around the world, the better it is for Vogue. Vogue is like Nike or Coca-Cola—this huge global brand. I want to enhance it, I want to protect it, and I want it to be part of the conversation.
I worked for Harper’s Bazaar. They fired me. I recommend that you all get fired; it’s a great learning experience.
They (fashion editors) have always been our secret weapon.
Some people have the Bible. I have Vogue.
I surround myself with a talented group of people that are opinionated and interesting. I try to remain very open to what others have to say.
I think what I often see is that people are frightened about fashion. Because it scares them or makes them feel insecure, so they just put it down. On the whole people that may say the mean things about our world I think that’s usually because they feel, in some ways, excluded or, you know, not a part of ‘the cool group’ so as a result they just mock it.
If you look at any great fashion photograph out of context, it will tell you just as much about what's going on in the world as a headline in The New York Times.
There is something about fashion that can make people really nervous.
The Trump Card is appealing, grounded, smart, and has a sense of humor. Ivanka Trump proves that believing in yourself and working hard never go out of style.
I want 'Vogue' to be pacy, sharp, and sexy - I'm not interested in the super-rich or infinitely leisured. I want our readers to be energetic executive women, with money of their own and a wide range of interests. There is a new kind of woman out there. She's interested in business and money.
The notion that a contemporary woman must look mannish in order to be taken seriously as a seeker of power is frankly dismaying. This is America, not Saudi Arabia.
Fashion is a reflection of our times. Fashion can tell you everything that's going on in the world with a strong fashion image.
