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
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.

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
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
Fashion is a reflection of our times. Fashion can tell you everything that's going on in the world with a strong fashion image.

Models today, she explained, don't understand that to be successful you have to have a personality, intelligence, and issues that you support, and Gisele embodies these qualities.
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
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
The best way to make dream come true is to wake up.
