Anna Wintour
FameRank: 8

"Anna Wintour", Order of the British Empire/OBE is the English editor-in-chief of American Vogue (magazine)/Vogue, a position she has held since 1988. In 2013, she became artistic director for Condé Nast Publications/Condé Nast, Vogue's publisher. With her trademark pageboy bob cut/bob haircut and sunglasses, Wintour has become an important figure in much of the fashion world, widely praised for her eye for fashion trends and her support for younger fashion designer/designers. Her reportedly aloof and demanding personality has earned her the nickname "Nuclear Wintour", spoofing on the rather more serious phenomenon of nuclear winter.

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.

This is why New York has become the most relevant fashion capital in the world. Because we respect not only the established designers but also the up-and-coming ones like Peter.
