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.

You can’t really worry too much…about what the competition is doing or what other people in your field are doing. It has to be a true vision.

Vogue' is the best of everything that fashion can offer, and I think we point the way. We are, you know, a glamorous girlfriend.

One should look forward rather than backwards.

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.

When I hear a company is being run by a team, my heart sinks, because you need to have that leader with a vision and heart that can move things forward.

There's always a way to wear fur.
