Elizabeth Day'Odell's extensive reporting dredges up a wealth of
delightful details' New York TimesThis definitive biography of Anna
Wintour chronicles the steep climb of an ambitious young woman who
would, with singular and legendary focus, become the most powerful
woman in media. As a child, Anna Wintour was a tomboy with no
apparent interest in clothing but, seduced by the miniskirts and
bob haircuts of swinging 1960s London, she grew into a
fashion-obsessed teenager. Her father, the influential editor of
the Evening Standard, loomed large in her life, and once he decided
she should become editor in chief of Vogue, she never looked
back.Impatient to start her career, she left high school and got a
job at a fashionable boutique in London - an experience that would
be the first of many defeats. Undeterred, she found work in the
competitive world of magazines, eventually moving to New York.
Before long, Anna's journey to Vogue became a battle to ascend, no
matter who or what stood in her way.Once she was crowned editor in
chief - in one of the stormiest transitions in fashion magazine
history - she continued the fight to retain her enviable position,
ultimately rising to dominate all of Conde Nast. Based on extensive
interviews with Anna Wintour's closest friends and collaborators,
including some of the biggest names in fashion, journalist Amy
Odell has crafted the most revealing portrait of Wintour ever
published. Weaving Anna's personal story into a larger narrative
about the hierarchical dynamics of the fashion industry and the
complex world of Conde Nast, Anna charts the relentless ambition of
the woman who would become an icon.

Niekedy máme v živote jednoducho smolu. Niekedy sa dostaneme do
prúseru, ani nevieme ako. Ale niekedy si za všetko, čo sa deje,
môžeme sami.
