Post #9 The Woman Behind Vogue

Anna Wintour, the woman who single handedly changed the face of Vogue in America has become one of the deciding factors in what you will see being worn around you.  In 1998 she was named Editor-in-Chief of Vogue, and her reign at the magazine caused a shift in the fashion industry.  Wintour was the first to combine low-end clothing items and luxury ones and call it a trend, she is also known for commemorating unknown fashion designers (at the time) on their unique approach to clothing, such as Alexander McQueen and Marc Jacobs.  Anna Wintour has proved that she is a force to be reckon with in the fashion world, her decisions on what to feature in Vogue magazine can make or break a designers future.  

In the world of fashion it is hard to imagine not having someone to look to for guidance. The ones that tell us what is going to be the next “it” style, and which designers will be leading the empire that is the fashion industry.  This is exactly what Anna Wintour has made of herself, she is that enlightenment to millions of style seekers across the world.  Simply put, her influence is undeniable which is why she is so important to our fashion culture today.
