You can’t really worry too much…about what the competition is doing or what other people in your field are doing. It has to be a true vision.
Anna Wintour

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.
Anna Wintour
Image
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.

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.

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

I don't really follow market research. In the end, I respond to my own instincts.
Anna Wintour
Image
Fashion goes in only one direction -forward- and I am a firm believer in thinking that way too.
Anna Wintour
Image
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 went to Wimbledon before I could walk. It's just been a lifelong passion.
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.

There's always a way to wear fur.
Anna Wintour
Image
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.

It's the mishaps that make it fun, and brings you the surprise.
Anna Wintour
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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.

If one comes across sometimes as being cold or brusque, it's simply because I'm striving for the best.

I'd just been on a trip to Minnesota, where I can only kindly describe most of the people I saw as little houses.

The best way to make dream come true is to wake up.

One should look forward rather than backwards.
