“September is the January in fashion” says an employee of Anna Wintour, one of the most powerful people in the fashion industry. "The September Issue” is a documentary (filmed in 2007) about the blood, sweat, and tears that go into making the most well known fashion magazine in the world. Vogue Magazine has been known to put designers and models on the map of the fashion industry with the help of editor and chief, Anna Wintour. Known for her stylish hair and her trendsetting fashion, she is no woman to accept any kind of mediocre work. Those who want to initiate ideas with Wintour must be prepared and must be able to take harsh criticism. September is the month when the headquarters of Vogue is faced with chaos and stress due to the fact that the September issue of Vogue is the most important issue out of all the months of the year. Why is the September issue such a big deal? September is the beginning of the new year for fashion making the September issue look like New York's yellow pages.

Another question arises, what makes Anna Wintour seem so intimidating?
Well first off, she is business savy which comes across as arrogant or cocky. In an interview during “The September Issue” she states, “there is something about fashion that makes people nervous.” In the cut throat industry of fashion, Wintour demonstrates how people are required to have a thick skin to survive in the industry. Some say her ambitions seem to be too hard edge and that the fashion industry shouldn't be taken too seriously. No matter how you view Anna Wintour, it is undeniable that she is more watched than the runway and even some celebrities.
