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.

Image
They (fashion editors) have always been our secret weapon.

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
I don't think of myself as a powerful person.
Anna Wintour
Image
Fashion's not about looking back. It's always about looking forward.
Anna Wintour

You either know fashion or you don't.

In today's world you have to interact. You can't be some difficult, shy person who is not able to look somebody in the face you have to present yourself. You have to know how to talk about your vision, your focus and what you believe in.

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 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.
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
Image
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.
Anna Wintour
Image
Fashion is a reflection of our times. Fashion can tell you everything that's going on in the world with a strong fashion image.
Anna Wintour
Image
Well it just looks so ugly. Is it a boy or is it a girl?
Anna Wintour
Image
If you can't be better than your competition, just dress better.
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
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
It’s always about timing. If it’s too soon, no one understands. If it’s too late, everyone’s forgotten.
Anna Wintour
Image
People respond well to those that are sure of what they want.

One should look forward rather than backwards.
