Part of the pleasure of editing 'Vogue,' one that lies in a long tradition of this magazine, is being able to feature those who define the culture at any given moment, who stir things up, whose presence in the world shapes the way it looks and influences the way we see it.

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.
Anna Wintour
Image
The notion that Anna would want something done now and not shortly is accurate.
Anna Wintour
Image
I'm interested in seeing just the girl on the street because she is unlike any other. I'm inspired by whatever it is she might be wearing.
Anna Wintour
Image
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
Image
I wasn't academically successful. And maybe I've spent a lot of my career trying to make up for that.
Anna Wintour
Image
People respond well to those that are sure of what they want.
Anna Wintour
Image
Fashion is not beautiful, neither is it ugly. Why should it be either? Fashion is fashion.
Anna Wintour
Image
Well it just looks so ugly. Is it a boy or is it a girl?

Fashion's not about looking back. It's always about looking forward.
