Anna Wintour

It's important for young women and men coming out of the fashion schools to think seriously before starting their own collections.
Anna Wintour
Everyone should be sacked at least once in their career because perfection doesn't exist. It's important to have setbacks, because that is the reality of life.
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 look for strong people. I don't like people who'll say yes to everything I might bring up. I want people who can argue and disagree and have a point of view that's reflected in the magazine. My dad believed in the cult of personality. He brought great writers and columnists to The Standard.
