More quotes by Anna Wintour
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.
Anna Wintour
Even if I'm completely unsure, I'll pretend I know exactly what I'm talking about and make a decision.
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
If you can't be better than your competition, just dress better.
Anna Wintour
I'd just been on a trip to Minnesota, where I can only kindly describe most of the people I saw as little houses.
Anna Wintour
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.

Some people have the Bible. I have Vogue.
Anna Wintour
Fashion is not beautiful, neither is it ugly. Why should it be either? Fashion is fashion.
Anna Wintour
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.
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
To be in Vogue has to mean something
Anna Wintour
People respond well to those that are sure of what they want.
Anna Wintour
It is a family it's a slightly dysfunctional family, but it's also very close and warm and loving family.
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.
Anna Wintour
Go get a job. Whether it’s working as a designer or working in a restaurant and then doing your own thing in your own time, it’s a reality of life. In the end it’s going to be helpful to you and so many others.
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
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
The gossip might make better reading, but the simple fact of the matter is that it isn't true.
Anna Wintour
There's always a way to wear fur.
Anna Wintour
I wasn't academically successful. And maybe I've spent a lot of my career trying to make up for that.
