Vogue Magazine Fashion Quotes & Sayings

A short way into Teen Vogue I realized that teens see it as a guide for their lives and their careers, more than a place to teach them how to get boys. And they don't ask us fashion advice questions; they're too sophisticated.

I'm always looking for a cover subject that reflects the magazine, an interest in fashion, in culture, in society. We're trying to bring the world into the pages of 'Vogue.' We do that by tapping into the zeitgeists with our cover subjects. — Anna Wintour

'Vogue' is a fashion magazine, and a fashion magazine is about change. — Anna Wintour
