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 WintourFashion goes in only one direction -forward- and I am a firm believer in thinking that way too.
Anna WintourIโm 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 WintourJust be true to yourself, and listen as much as one is able to to other people whose opinions you respect and look up to but in the end it has to come from you. You canโt really worry too much by looking to the left and the right about what the competition is doing or what other people in your field are doing. It has to be a true vision.
