ANNA WINTOUR - I was fired because I couldn’t pin a dress

Origins With Cush Jumbo

03-09-2024 • 38 mins

Dame Anna Wintour is the biggest name in fashion. As Global Editorial Director of Vogue, Chief Content Officer of Condé Nast and Chair of the Met Gala, she is an inspirational titan of the industry. Anna came from exalted beginnings, yet she went on to supersede all expectations. In this conversation with Cush, she describes herself as being ‘bad at everything’ when she was younger – and she was fired early in her career. However clearly this early adversity didn’t deter her, and she went on to conquer the world.   In this episode of Origins you’ll find out how America changed her, how her father influenced her management style and how being a grandmother softened her. Plus Anna's daughter, Bee, describes what it’s like to be Anna Wintour’s daughter.
