Synopsis
Based on scores of interviews, this revealing biography chronicles the insecure and creative climb of Anna Wintour to the top of the bitchy, competitive fashion magazine world, exposing for the first time how she artfully reinvented herself along the way., She' s ambitious, driven, insecure, needy, a perfectionist-- and she' s considered the most powerful force in the more than $100 billion fashion industry. She' s Anna Wintour, editor in chief of "Vogue," the world' s fashion bible. With her signature Louise Brooks bob, trademark sunglasses, and glamorous furs, she' s a sexy international diva, gossiped about the world over. As famed designed Oscar de la Renta declares, " She' s a star." How did Wintour, who quit school over the length of her hemline, and who had no real writing or communication skills, rise to the pinnacle of the fashion magazine world? Based on scores of interviews with present and former friends and colleagues, "Front Row" is the scrupulously researched, often shocking life story of this enigmatic icon-- a candid portrait of a fashion-obsessed teenager in Swinging Sixties London who claws her way up the ivory tower in New York. It is also an intimate examination of Wintour' s personal passions and needs, her loves lost and won, and her feuds and achievements. Anna Wintour' s story is an inside look at one of the world' s most influential women as well as the catty, competitive bitch-eat-bitch world of fashion.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
