Anna Wintour (born November 3, 1949, in London) has been the editor-in-chief of American Vogue since 1988. She became interested in fashion as a teenager and advised her father Charles, editor of the Evening Standard, on how to better make the newspaper appealing to the youth of mid-1960s London. After dropping out of school at 16, she began a career in fashion journalism. Her career took her across the Atlantic, with notable stints at New York and Home & Garden. She returned home for a tumultous year to turn around British Vogue, and later assumed control of the franchise's flagship magazine in New York. She revived a stagnant publication, a success that has earned her wide acclaim in the industry. Image File history File links Anna_Wintour. ...

Like her predecessor Diana Vreeland, she has become a fashion icon. Her bob haircut and sunglasses have become a common sight in the front row of the most exclusive fashion shows. Away from the cameras, she has become as much an institution in the fashion world as her magazine. Universally hailed for her keen eye for fashion trends and support for younger designers, her aloof and demanding persona has earned her the nickname "Nuclear Wintour". A former personal assistant, Lauren Weisberger, wrote the 2003 bestselling roman à clef The Devil Wears Prada, later made into a successful film starring Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly, a fashion editor widely believed to be based on Wintour. She has also drawn both praise and criticism for her willingness to use the magazine and its cachet to shape the industry as a whole. Animal rights activists have also singled her out for her continued promotion of fur.

Early life

The young Wintour was educated at North London Collegiate School, where she frequently rebelled against the dress code by taking up her skirts.^[8] At the age of 14 she began wearing her hair in the bob that has since become her trademark.^[9] As London began to swing, she became a dedicated follower of fashion as a regular viewer of Cathy McGowan on Ready Steady Go!, and her father regularly consulted her when he was considering ideas for increasing readership in the youth market.^[10] North London Collegiate School is a selective independent day school for girls from the ages of 4 to 18. ...

Career

From fashion to journalism

Charles Wintour arranged his daughter's first job, at the influential Biba boutique, when she was 15.^[14] The next year, she dropped out of North London Collegiate. Wintour chose not to go to college but instead entered a training program at Harrods. At her parents' behest, she also took some fashion classes at a nearby school, but soon dropped out, saying "you either know fashion or you don't".^[15] She continued dating well-connected older men, this time Peter Gitterman, the stepson of London Philharmonic Orchestra conductor Georg Solti.^[16] Another boyfriend, Richard Neville, gave her her first look at magazine production when she hung around the offices of his popular and controversial Oz.^[17] Biba was an iconic and popular fashion store in the 1960s and 1970s. ...

She entered the field of fashion journalism in 1970 when Harper's Bazaar merged with Queen to become Harper's & Queen, and the new magazine needed editorial assistants.^[18] While there, she let it be known to her coworkers she ultimately wanted to edit Vogue.^[19] She discovered model Annabel Hodin, a former North London classmate, and used the connections she had built up to secure locations for some striking, innovative shoots, often shot by Helmut Newton and other trend-setting photographers.^[20] One shoot recreated the works of Renoir and Manet using models in go-go boots.^[21]. She left the magazine in 1975 after chronic disagreements with new editor Min Hogg, whose job Anna herself had vied for^[22], and relocated to New York with yet another older boyfriend, freelance journalist and playboy Jon Bradshaw.^[23] Fashion journalism is an umbrella term used to describe all aspects of published fashion media. ... 1970 (MCMLXX) was a common year starting on Thursday. ...

New York

She became a junior fashion editor at Harper's Bazaar in New York in 1975.^[21] Her innovative shoots caused conflict with editor Tony Mazzola, and she was fired after nine months, although she has often claimed to have worked there for longer.^[24] During that time she was introduced to Bob Marley by one of Bradshaw's friends, and disappeared with him for a week.^[25] It has been suggested that this article or section be merged with Harpers & Queen. ...

After several months, Bradshaw's help got her her first position as a fashion editor, with Viva, a women's adult magazine started by Kathy Keeton, then wife of Penthouse publisher Bob Guccione. While she was there for two years until it folded in 1979, she has rarely admitted to working there due to the Penthouse connection.^[26] It would be the first position for which she would be able to hire a personal assistant, and along with it came her reputation for being a demanding and difficult boss.^[27] Viva was an adult womans magazine published by Bob Guccione and Kathy Keeton. ...

When Guccione shut down the money-losing Viva in late 1978, Wintour decided instead to take some time off. She had endured a difficult breakup with Bradshaw, briefly dating Eric Idle^[28] afterwards.

Return to publishing

In 1980, she went back to work, succeeding Elsa Klensch as fashion editor for a new women's magazine named Savvy,^[30] It sought to appeal to career-conscious professional women who could and would make purchases with their own earnings^[31], a reader Wintour would later target with Vogue. Elsa Klensch was the producer and host of Style with Elsa Klensch, CNNs fashion and design television program, which ran from 1980 to 2000. ... Practical know-how. ...

The next year, she moved on to become fashion editor of New York.^[21] It would be the turning point of her career. There, the fashion spreads and photo shoots she had been putting together for years finally began attracting the attention she wanted them to in the industry, and made her a favorite of editor Edward Kosner. He sometimes bent very strict rules for her,^[32] and aroused the ire of the rest of the staff. Nevertheless, he began letting her work on other sections of the magazine, and she learned through her work on a cover involving Rachel Ward how effectively celebrity covers sold copies.^[32] Headquarters New York magazine is a weekly magazine, founded in 1968, concerned with the life, culture, politics, and style of New York City. ...

Condé Nast

Among those in the magazine business whose eyes her New York spreads eventually caught was Alex Liberman, editorial director for Condé Nast, publisher of Vogue. In 1983, he talked to Wintour about a position at that magazine, and she eventually accepted after a bidding war which doubled her salary.^[34] Condé Nast Publications Inc is a worldwide magazine publishing company based in New York City. ...

She was given the never-before-used title of creative director.^[34] Since her responsibilities were not clearly defined, she often changed aspects of the magazine without letting Mirabella know, which caused friction between Wintour and other staffers.^[35] During this time, she began dating another older man, prominent child psychiatrist David Shaffer, thirteen years her senior, an acquaintance from her younger days in London. He gave her strong emotional support during a difficult and stressful period in her career.^[36] The two married in September 1984.^[37] Psychiatry is a medical specialty dealing with the prevention, assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of the mind and mental illness. ...

Wintour became pregnant by him shortly thereafter, and a year after the marriage was chosen to replace longtime British Vogue editor Beatrix Miller.^[38] She took over in April 1986, shortly after giving birth to her son, Charlie.^[39] Her husband remained in New York, working on a research project about teenage suicide,^[38] and the company paid for her townhouse, nanny and frequent roundtrip flights on the Concorde for the two.^[40] A pregnant woman near the end of her term Pregnancy is the carrying of one or more embryos or fetuses by female mammals, including humans, inside their bodies. ...

She radically changed British Vogue, steering it from a tradition of eccentricity to a direction more in tune with the American magazine, borrowing her ideal reader from Savvy. " There's a new kind of woman out there", she told her father's old paper, the Evening Standard. "She's interested in business and money. She doesn't have time to shop anymore. She wants to know what and why and where and how."^[30] She replaced many staffers and exerted far more control over the magazine then any previous editor had, earning the nickname "Nuclear Wintour" in the process.^[41] Those editors who were retained began to refer to the period as "The Wintour of Our Discontent". "It was the end of life as we knew it", said Liz Tilberis, who had hoped for the top job herself.^[42] Elizabeth Tilberis, (b 1947 – d 1999) born Elizabeth Jane Kelly, known professionally throughout her career as Liz Tilberis, was a British fashion magazine editor of Manx and English ancestry. ...

Tilberis got the job in mid-1987 when Wintour returned to New York to take over House & Garden. It had long lagged Architectural Digest,^[43] and the company gave her a free hand. Again, she made radical changes to staff and look. "She destroyed House & Garden in about two days," complained a fired editor, referring to the $2 million worth of photo spreads and articles she cancelled in her first week.^[44] She put so much fashion in photo spreads that industry wags began to refer to the magazine as House & Garment, and enough celebrities that it was referred to as Vanity Chair.^[45] House & Garden (sometimes House and Garden, but the magazine uses the ampersand) is a magazine published by Condé Nast Publications. ... Architectural Digest is a glossy American monthly magazine dedicated to interior design, published by Condé Nast Publications. ...

Wintour's changes did, indeed, have a negative effect on the magazine. When "HG" became the name on the cover in March 1988, many longtime subscribers thought they were getting a new magazine and put it aside for the real thing to arrive.^[43] Many eventually canceled, and while some fashion advertisers came over, most of the magazine's traditional advertisers pulled out.^[46]

After ten months, Conde Nast finally made a long-awaited move and put her into the job she had aimed for since 1971: the editorship of Vogue. Under Mirabella, it had become more focused on lifestyles as a whole and less on fashion.^[45] Industry insiders worried that it was losing ground to the upstart American edition of ELLE,^[45] which had been introduced from France in 1985.^[30] Besides sweeping staff changes, Wintour made her mark early on with a shift in the cover pictures. Whereas Mirabella had preferred tight headshots of well-known models, Wintour's covers showed more of the body and were taken outside, in natural light, instead of the studio, echoing what Vreeland had done years earlier.^[30] She used less well-known models, and mixed inexpensive clothes with the high fashion — the first issue she was in charge of, in November of that year, featured a young Israeli model in a $50 pair of faded jeans and a bejeweled T-shirt by Christian Lacroix worth $10,000. Eight months later, another model was shown in wet hair, with just a terrycloth bathrobe and apparently without makeup.^[45] She also made a point of seeing to it that photographers, makeup artists and hairstylists got as much credit for the images as the models.^[30] “Elle” redirects here. ... 1985 (MCMLXXXV) was a common year starting on Tuesday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Under her editorship, the magazine renewed its focus on fashion and returned to the prominence it had held under Diana Vreeland. Vogue held off the challenge from not only ELLE but Harper's Bazaar, which had lured Tilberis to compete with Wintour, and Mirabella, a magazine Rupert Murdoch founded for Wintour's predecessor. Her most serious adversary, in fact, was within the company — Tina Brown, editor of Vanity Fair and later The New Yorker, whom she competed against for writers and photographers. The two are said to strongly dislike each other, despite some similar personal qualities.^[47] Diana Vreeland (July 29, 1906 in Paris, France – August 22, 1989) was a noted columnist and editor in the field of fashion. ...

Fashion industry power broker

Anna Wintour, through the years, has become one of the most powerful people in fashion, setting trends and anointing new designers. The Guardian has called her the "unofficial mayoress" of New York City.^[51] She has worked behind the scenes to encourage fashion houses to hire younger, fresher designers such as John Galliano, who owes his position at Christian Dior to her intervention. She persuaded Donald Trump to let Marc Jacobs use a ballroom at the Plaza Hotel for a show when he and his partner were short of cash. More recently, she persuaded Brooks Brothers to hire the relatively unknown Thom Browne.^[52] Her protégée at Vogue, Plum Sykes, became a successful novelist, drawing her settings from New York's fashionable élite.

Work habits

She rises daily before 6 a.m., plays tennis and has her hair and makeup done, then gets to Vogue's offices at 8. She always arrives at fashion shows at their scheduled starting time.

Her control over the magazine, particularly her strong suit, photo layouts, has long been industry legend. She has since her first days as editor required that photographers not begin until she has approved Polaroids of the setup and clothing. Afterwards, they must submit all their work to the magazine, not just their personal choices.^[58] But her control over the text is less certain.

Similarly, in younger days she often left the task of writing the text accompanying her layouts to others, since, many of those who did say, she has minimal skills in that area.^[61] Today she writes little for the magazine save the monthly editor's letter.

At Vogue, she reportedly has three full-time assistants but sometimes surprises callers by answering the phone herself.^[52] She often turns her cell phone off in order to eat lunch uninterrupted, and likes to have a good steak for her midday meal.^[62] Others who have known her likewise report that high-protein meals have been a habit of hers for a long time.

Personal fashion preferences

As the editor of the world's most prestigious fashion magazine, her public wardrobe is often closely scrutinized and imitated. While in her earlier days she mixed fashionable t-shirts and vests with designer jeans, once she started at Vogue as creative director she switched to Chanel suits with miniskirts.^[34] She continued to wear them even through both pregnancies,^[56] opening the skirts slightly in back and keeping her jacket on to cover up.^[63] Designer jeans are jeans that were marketed as fashion and status symbols. ...

Her practice of wearing sunglasses indoors has been the subject of many speculative explanations. These have ranged from a simple affectation to facetious suggestions that she is Satan and the glasses conceal glowing red eyeballs. According to biographer Jerry Oppenheimer, however, she really wears them to conceal poor eyesight (her father's vision deteriorated seriously in his later years, and she fears a similar fate).

The Devil Wears Prada

Further information: The Devil Wears Prada (novel)

Weisberger's novel is told in the voice of Andrea "Andy" Sachs, a young woman fresh from college with literary ambitions. Andy gets a job as junior assistant to legendary editor Miranda Priestly, who among her many similarities to Wintour is British, has two children, and serves on the board of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Priestly is depicted as a tyrant who makes impossible demands of her subordinates, gives them almost none of the information or time necessary to comply and then berates them for their failures to do so.^[67] Prior to its publication, Wintour told the New York Times, "I always enjoy a great piece of fiction. I haven't decided whether I am going to read it or not."^[68] While it has been suggested that the setting and Priestly were based on Vogue and Wintour, Weisberger denies this, and even gives Wintour herself a cameo appearance near the end of the book.

The novel's portrayal of Wintour/Priestly is not entirely negative. Andrea notes that she does manage the difficult task of making all the key editorial decisions in a major fashion magazine every month all by herself^[69] and that she has genuine class and style.^[70]

Yet it is almost universally believed that the book's success was due to the real-life angle. Neither Vogue nor any other Condé Nast publications reviewed Weisberger's book. When the film was released, one of the company's magazines, The New Yorker, ran a review that disparaged the novel in comparison.^[71] The New York Times's Janet Maslin avoided mentioning Wintour's name in one of the paper's two negative reviews of the book.^[72] Its favorable notice of the movie mentioned neither Vogue nor Wintour.^[73] The New Yorker is an American magazine that publishes reportage, criticism, essays, cartoons, poetry and fiction. ...

Film adaptation

Further information: The Devil Wears Prada (film)

During production of the movie in 2005, Wintour was reportedly pressuring prominent fashion personalities, particularly designers, not to make cameo appearances in the movie lest they be banished from the magazine's pages, at least temporarily.^[74] She denied it through a spokesperson who said she was interested in anything that "supports fashion". But, while many designers are mentioned in the film, only one, Valentino Garavani, actually appeared as himself.^[74] The Devil Wears Prada is an Academy Award-nominated 2006 comedy-drama film, a loose screen adaptation of Lauren Weisbergers 2003 novel of the same name. ...

The film was released, in mid-2006, to great commercial success.^[75] Wintour attended the première wearing Prada. In the film, actress Meryl Streep plays a Priestly different enough from the book's to receive critical praise as an entirely original (and more sympathetic) character (although Streep's office in the film bears similarities striking enough to Wintour's^[76] that she reportedly had it redecorated).^[77] Premiere, from French language première meaning first, generally means a first performance.

Wintour reportedly said the film would probably go straight to DVD.^[62] It made over US$300 million in worldwide box office receipts. Later in 2006, in an interview with Barbara Walters which aired the day of the DVD's release, Wintour said she found the film "really entertaining" and praised it for making fashion "entertaining and glamorous and interesting…. I was one hundred percent behind it".^[78] DVD (also known as Digital Versatile Disc or Digital Video Disc) is an optical disc storage media format that can be used for data storage, including movies with high video and sound quality. ...

While Wintour may have borne no malice toward the film and those involved in it, she has reportedly never forgiven Weisberger.^[79] When it was reported that her editor suggested she completely start her third novel over, her spokesman suggested Weisberger "should get a job as someone else's assistant."^[80]

Ultimately, The Devil Wears Prada may have actually done Wintour a favor by increasing her name recognition. "Besides giving Weisberger her fifteen minutes", Oppenheimer writes, "[it] ... place[d] Anna squarely in the mainstream celebrity pantheon.

Other criticism

While her success at turning Vogue around and her support of the fashion industry and charity work are universally acknowledged, criticism of her management style as depicted by Weisberger has continued. She has also been accused of imposing an élitist æsthetic on the magazine, promoting celebrities over fashion personalities and making demands that even prominent subjects change their image before being featured in its pages.^[56][45] Elitism is the belief or attitude that the people who are considered to be the elite — a selected group of persons with outstanding personal abilities, wealth, specialised training or experience, or other distinctive attributes — are the people whose views on a matter are to be taken the most seriously, or...

In 2005, two years after The Devil Wears Prada, Oppenheimer's, Front Row: The Cool Life and Hot Times of Vogue's Editor In Chief was published. It drew on many unnamed sources, often with grudges, to paint a similar portrait of the real woman. According to Oppenheimer, Wintour not only declined his requests for an interview but directed others not to cooperate.^[81], consistent with other reports that she goes to great lengths to manage her public image. When she took over as American Vogue editor, gossip columnist Liz Smith reported rumors that she had gotten the job by having an affair with Newhouse. Wintour was reportedly furious and made her anger the subject of one of her first staff meetings.^[30] She remained angry enough that she still complained about it when accepting a media award in 2002.^[82] Gossip column A gossip column is an article in a newspaper or magazine written by a gossip columnist. ...

Personality

She is often described as cold and aloof. "At some stage in her career, Anna Wintour stopped being Anna Wintour and became 'Anna Wintour', at which point, like wings of a stately home, she closed off large sections of her personality to the public", wrote The Guardian.^[66] Many former coworkers told Jerry Oppenheimer of how she kept her distance from most of them. But she is also known for volatile outbursts of displeasure, and the "Nuclear Wintour" sobriquet is a result of both. Despite its wide use, she dislikes it enough to have demanded that the New York Times not use it.^[41] The Guardian is a British newspaper owned by the Guardian Media Group. ...

"I think she has been very rude to a lot of people in the past, on her way up — very terse," said the same friend the Observer quoted on the positive effect of her relationship with Bryan. "She doesn't do small talk. She is never going to be friends with her assistant".^[56] A former assistant said, "You definitely did not ride the elevator with her."^[83] Even those who like her admit to some trepidation at her presence.

She has often been described as a perfectionist who routinely makes impossible, arbitrary demands of those who work for or under her, and treats them unkindly: "kitchen scissors at work," in the words of one commentator.^[45]She once made a junior staffer look through a photographer's trash to find a picture he had refused to give her.^[30] An intern at the magazine was told she must not make eye contact with Wintour or initiate conversation with her. One day in the hall, the intern saw Wintour trip and stepped over her rather than violate this taboo.^[56] "The notion that Anna would want something done 'now' and not 'shortly' is accurate," Barbara Amiel says of The Devil Wears Prada. "Anna wants what she wants right away."^[65] A longtime assistant says "She throws you in the water and you'll either sink or swim."^[84] Perfectionism, in psychology, is a belief that perfection should be strived for. ...

Her treatment of employees has, on one occasion, cost her financially. On May 11, 2004, a court ruled that she and Shaffer were to pay $104,403, and Wintour herself an additional $32,639, to settle a lawsuit brought against them by the New York State Workers' Compensation Board. They had failed to pay the $140,000 it incurred on behalf of a former employee injured on the job who did not have the necessary insurance coverage.^[85] Peter Braunstein, the former Women's Wear Daily media reporter later convicted of sexually abusing a former coworker, was moved to a murderous rage by Wintour's attitude. After receiving only one ticket to the 2002 Vogue Fashion Awards, which he perceived as a snub, he became so angry that WWD fired him.^[86] At his 2007 trial, prosecutors introduced as evidence a journal he kept as a computer file in which he stated his intention to kill her.

PETA campaign

She has often been the target of various animal rights organizations such as PETA who are angered by her use of fur in Vogue, her pro-fur editorials and her refusal to run paid advertisements from animal rights organizations. Undeterred, she continues to use fur in photo spreads. She says she has been physically attacked by activists so many times she's "lost count."^[88] In Paris in October 2005, she was hit with a tofu pie while waiting to get into the Chloé show.^[89] She and Vogue's publisher Ron Galotti once retaliated for a protest outside the Condé Nast offices during the company's annual Christmas party by sending down a plate of steaming, freshly cooked roast beef.^[90] A civet, or sea fox, photographed in the Zigong Peoples Zoo, Sichuan, 2001. ...

Élitism

Some critics have charged that instead of models, celebrities are becoming the face of Vogue.^[92][93][94] She has, however, demanded they bow to her standards. Oprah Winfrey was reportedly told she would not be photographed for the cover until she lost weight, and Hillary Clinton would not appear until she stopped wearing navy blue suits.^[45] At the 2005 Anglomania celebration, a Vogue-sponsored salute to British fashion at the Met, Wintour is said to have personally chosen the clothes for prominent attendees such as Jennifer Lopez, Kate Moss, Donald Trump and Diane von Furstenberg.^[56] "I don’t think Vreeland had that kind of concentration", says Women's Wear Daily publisher Patrick McCarthy. "She wouldn’t have dressed Babe Paley. Nor would Babe Paley have let her".^[52] By persuading designers to loan clothes to prominent socialites and celebrities, who are then photographed wearing the clothes not only in Vogue but more general-interest magazines like People and Us, which in turn influence what buyers want, some in the industry believe Wintour is exerting too much control over it, especially since she is not involved in making or producing clothes herself. "The end result is that Anna can control it all the way to the selling floor", says Candy Pratts Price, executive fashion director at style.com.^[52] Oprah Winfrey, (born January 29, 1954) is a multiple-Emmy Award winning host of The Oprah Winfrey Show, the highest rated talk show in television history. ...

Another Vogue writer complained that Wintour excluded ordinary working women, many of whom are regular subscribers, from the pages. "She's obsessed only about reflecting the aspirations of a certain class of reader," she says."

Wintour has been accused of setting herself apart even from ostensible peers. "I do not think fiction could surpass the reality", an unnamed British fashion magazine editor says of The Devil Wears Prada. "[A]rt in this instance is only a poor imitation of life." Wintour, the editor says, routinely requests to be seated where competing editors cannot see or be seen by her.^[56] Further,

Responses

Wintour has rarely, if ever, personally responded to criticisms of her, as most critics have been her employees or others with something to gain by remaining in her favor, and have thus spoken anonymously. But there have been a few defenses from other quarters. Amanda Fortini at Slate said she was just fine with Wintour's elitism since that was intrinsic to fashion and, ultimately, good for the magazine's readers: Slate is an online news and culture magazine created in 1996 by former New Republic editor Michael Kinsley and owned by Microsoft (as part of MSN). ...

Most of us read Vogue not with the intention of buying the wildly expensive clothes, but because doing so educates our eye and hones our taste, similar to the way eating gourmet food refines the palate. This is a pleasure enabled by Wintour's ruthless aesthetic, her refusal to participate in the democratizing tendency of most of her competitors. To deny her that privilege is to deny her readers the privilege of fantasy in the form of beautifully photographed Paris couture.^[45] The palate is the roof of the mouth in humans and vertebrate animals. ...

Emma Brockes sees this in Wintour herself: "[Her] unwavering ability to look as if she lives within the pages of her magazine has a sort of honesty to it, proof that, whatever one thinks about it, the lifestyle peddled by Vogue is at least physically possible".^[66] Emma Brockes is a British journalist for The Guardian newspaper, working principally as a profile writer. ...

Friends see her purported coldness as just traditional British reserve.^[65]. Brockes further notes that it may be mutual: "... it is partly a reflection of how awkward people are with her, particularly women, who get pre-emptively chippy when faced with the prospect of meeting Fashion Incarnate."^[66] Wintour describes herself as shy, and Harry Connick Jr., who escorted her and Bee to shows in 2007, agrees.^[95] Harry Connick, Jr. ...

Her defenders have charged her critics with sexism. "Powerful women in the media always get inspected more thoroughly than their male counterparts", said the New York Times in a piece about Wintour shortly after the film's release.^[96] Some of the former have even seen her as a feminist whose changes to Vogue have reflected, acknowledged and reinforced advances in the status of women. Reviewing Oppenheimer's book in the Washington Monthly, managing editor Christina Larson notes that Vogue, unlike many other women's magazines, Manifestations Slavery · Racial profiling · Lynching Hate speech · Hate crime · Hate groups Genocide · Holocaust · Pogrom Ethnocide · Ethnic cleansing · Race war Religious persecution · Gay bashing Pedophobia · Ephebiphobia Movements Discriminatory Aryanism · Neo-Nazism · Supremacism Kahanism Anti-discriminatory Abolitionism · Civil rights LGBT rights Womens/Universal suffrage · Feminism Mens/Fathers rights · Masculinism Children...

...doesn't play to its readership's sense of inadequacy ... Instead, it reminds women to take satisfaction, parading all manner of fineries (clothes, furniture, travel destinations) that a successful woman might buy, or at least admire. While it surely exists to sell ads ... it does so primarily by exploiting ambition, not insecurity.^[30]

Wintour, unlike Vreeland, "...shifted Vogue's focus from the cult of beauty to the cult of the creation of beauty".^[30] To her, the focus on celebrities is a welcome development as it means that women are making the cover of Vogue at least in part for what they have accomplished, not just how they look.^[30]

Complaints about her role as fashion eminence grise are dismissed by those familiar with how she actually exercises it. "She’s honest. She tells you what she thinks. Yes is yes and no is no", according to Karl Lagerfeld. "She's not too pushy" agrees François-Henri Pinault, chief executive officer of PPR, Gucci's parent company. "She lets you know it’s not a problem if you can’t do something she wants." Observers also point out that she continued supporting Gucci despite her strong belief PPR should not have let Tom Ford go. Designers such as Alice Roi and Isabel Toledo have flourished without indulging Wintour or Vogue.^[52] Her willingness to throw her weight around has helped keep Vogue independent despite its heavy reliance on advertising dollars. Wintour was the only fashion editor who refused to follow an Armani ultimatum to feature more of its clothes in the magazine's editorial pages.^[56] An éminence grise (French for grey eminence), is a powerful advisor or decision-maker who operates secretly or otherwise unofficially. ...

Other portrayals in popular culture

There have been Wintour-inspired portrayals, as well as direct references, in movies and television since she took over Vogue. Edna Mode, in the 2004 hit animated film The Incredibles, was believed to have been at least partially inspired by Wintour, due to the similar bob haircut.^[66] Linda Hunt's Regina Krumm, in Robert Altman's 1994 film Prêt-à-Porter, has a similar haircut style, and the editors in the front rows of fashion shows in that film all wear sunglasses. Edna Marie E Mode is a principal character from the movie The Incredibles. ... // Please note that these are the top grossing films that were first released in 2004; because they may have made most of their income in a later year, they may not be the top-grossing films for calendar year 2004. ...

Ugly Betty's character Fey Sommers shares some characteristics with Wintour, such as the bob and sunglasses, having a homophone for a season as her last name, and being targeted by animal rights activists for using fur. Wintour is also referenced in that series directly when Wilhelmina Slater is poised to take over as editor-in-chief of MODE after Bradford Meade is arrested. She declines a lunch invitation from Wintour, saying she should have called back in 1998, not 2007. Ugly Betty is a Golden Globe and Peabody Award winning American television dramedy series starring America Ferrera, Vanessa Williams, and Eric Mabius. ...

Several years earlier, in an episode of HBO's Sex and the City, Carrie Bradshaw gets drunk with a Vogue editor (Ron Rifkin) in his office.

A & E IndieFilms and R.J. Cutler are to shoot a feature-length documentary chronicling the making of Vogue's September issue. Cutler had approached Wintour in 2004 and will direct the untitled pic which will be shot over eight months as Wintour prepares the fall fashion issue, known in the industry as the "fashion bible". The filmmakers plan to have it completed in 2008 .^[97] Biography is one of A&Es longest-running and most popular programs. ... R.J. Cutler is a television- and film-maker. ...
