I don’t want to go through life wondering if people are talking to me because I have a big rack. Not being the babest person in the world creates a nice barrier.” [Vogue UK]

Amy Astley's Pro-Wintour Stance: Teen Vogue editor Amy Astley thinks that Anna Wintour’s promotion to Artistic Director of Condé Nast is a good thing for all of the publishing house’s editors. “She’s been a real mentor, and I think other editors will find that she can help them, too,” she told WWD. “She says what she thinks directly to your face and she’s incisive. Those are things that may be helpful, especially to editors who are unsure. She will always zero in on the best picture of the superfluous spread in a story.” [WWD]
