It's not so much about powerful women. In some cases, there are stereotypes about women. I often don't hear men talked about in the same way. It's more a sexist stereotype than a powerful stereotype.

More quotes by Anna Wintour
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.
Anna Wintour
Just be true to yourself, and listen as much as one is able to to other people whose opinions you respect and look up to but in the end it has to come from you. You can’t really worry too much by looking to the left and the right about what the competition is doing or what other people in your field are doing. It has to be a true vision.
Anna Wintour
It's the mishaps that make it fun, and brings you the surprise.
Anna Wintour
I'd just been on a trip to Minnesota, where I can only kindly describe most of the people I saw as little houses.
Anna Wintour
Some people have the Bible. I have Vogue.
Anna Wintour
Fashion is not beautiful, neither is it ugly. Why should it be either? Fashion is fashion.
Anna Wintour
I saw young women in the street dressing in a way that I thought was influencing the designers. Fashion was being influenced by all sorts of different people, and culture and also across the street. So I saw more as a trickle up, than a trickle down influence. When I came to Vogue, that's what I wanted it to reflect.
Anna Wintour
I’m very driven by what I do. I am certainly very competitive. I like people who represent the best at what they do. If that turns you into a perfectionist then maybe I am.
Anna Wintour
There is something about fashion that can make people really nervous.
Anna Wintour
Fashion's not about looking back. It's always about looking forward.
Anna Wintour
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.
Anna Wintour
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.
Anna Wintour
I think possibly what people working for one hate the most is indecision. Even if I'm completely unsure, I'll pretend I know exactly what I'm talking about and make a decision. The most important thing I can do is try and make myself very clearly understood.
Anna Wintour
In the end I do respond to my own instincts. Sometimes they're successful, and obviously sometimes they're not. But you have to, I think, remain true to what you believe in.
Anna Wintour
You either know fashion or you don't.
Anna Wintour
The notion that Anna would want something done now and not shortly is accurate.
Anna Wintour
I'm very good at delegating - people work much better when they have a real sense of responsibility. But at the same time, I don't like surprises. I don't pore over every shoot, but I do like to be aware at all times of what's going on.
Anna Wintour
There's always a way to wear fur.
Anna Wintour
One should look forward rather than backwards.
Anna Wintour
Create your own individual style. I'm not interested in the girl who walks into my office in a HEAD-to-TOE LABEL look that's straight off the runway. I'm interested in a Girl who puts herself together in an ORIGINAL INDEPENDENT Way
