Anna Wintour is one of the biggest names in the fashion industry. Wintour has led Vogue as its editor in chief since 1988 and in her 30-year reign has revolutionized the fashion industry. Whether it be putting together the iconic September issue or turning the Met Gala into the global fashion event it has become known as today, Wintour’s influence has been undeniable and shows no signs of stopping. Wintour’s latest endeavor, Vogue World, is yet another example of her success and abilities in altering the fashion industry. 

Vogue World, which was held on Sept. 12 during New York Fashion Week, was a combination of fashion show and street fair. Taking over West 13th Street, Vogue World drew inspiration from the city of New York and established an event that brought together influencers, fashion elites, critics and countless celebrities. Vogue World was unlike any other show that occurred during New York Fashion Week, as it was not simply a fashion show, but a commercial, entertainment event, with pop-ups from brands like Moncler and Coach. 

Wintour has a reputation for being cold, traditional and overall just unpleasant. Some have argued that she is out of touch and stuck in the past, which raises questions about her ability to continue to lead Vogue into the future. Vogue World is the perfect event to put to rest any doubts about Wintour’s leadership abilities as the event maintains the classic aspects of a typical fashion show while incorporating modern trends.
