If you read nothing else today….read Anna Wintour’s Brand Anna from the Wall Street Journal.
With quotes like…
“Her genius,” says the designer Marc Jacobs, “is picking people very astutely, whether in politics, movies, sports or fashion.”
and…
“I’m a streak player, but Anna’s there, good or bad,” says Harvey Weinstein, co-chair of the Weinstein Company, who goes back some 15 years with Wintour. “When I wasn’t doing so well, Anna would throw a party and put me next to Bernard Arnault.”
and finally…
“You can make a film in Hollywood without Steven Spielberg’s blessing, and you can publish software without Bill Gates’s blessing, but you can’t succeed in fashion without Anna’s blessing”
…I think you’ll agree that this is a must read!
