The 'Vogue' editor-in-chief thinks Meghan is 'amazing'
Anna Wintour, the notorious editor-in-chief of fashion magazine Vogue, is known for her fierce statements. She doesn't hold back when it comes to criticizing people, as many have painfully experienced. For Duchess Meghan, however, she said kind words.
As Gala reports, Anna Wintour first spoke positively about the British royal four years ago. Back then, Anna Wintour wrote in Vogue that Meghan was 'amazing'andat the same time criticized how some members of the royal family reacted to her.
Anna Wintour praises Meghan's style
Above all, however, Meghan's fashionable style has attracted the attentionof Anna Wintour. The Vogue editor-in-chief, who is known to have previously loved Queen Elizabeth II's fashion style, also thinks the dress Meghan wore for her own wedding to Prince Harry is 'brilliant'. In the Vogue series Go Ask Anna, she says, according to Gala:
It was sophisticated, it was chic, it was grown-up. It was an English designer, albeit one who worked for a French house, which in a way was a message to the world: 'Yes, I'm from somewhere else, but I belong'. I thought she looked fantastic.
Anna Wintour even takes a leaf out of Meghan's book
The otherwise strict editor-in-chief, who rarely praises people, thinks Duchess Meghan's style is so good that she's taking a leaf out of Meghan's book. According to Page Six, Anna Wintour made a revelation at the Women in the World Summit in New York.
She said that she has been thinking a lot about suits recently and that it might be time to change her own style and wear more trouser suits. She says she found the inspiration for this in Duchess Meghan Markle.
Can Meghan come to the Met Gala?
It was announced that Prince Harry would be attending the coronation of his father, King Charles III, alone. Meghan stayed at home with the children during this time. Officially, Meghan was invited to the coronation, but unofficially it is said that she was not particularly welcome.
But perhaps Duchess Meghan will be allowed to attend another exclusive event? According to rumors, she could be invited to the Met Gala, where Anna Wintour will make the final decision on the guests.
The Met Gala guest list is very exclusive
Every year, celebrities from all over the world vie for a place on the Met Gala guest list. Meghan could have a good chance of being invited because Anna Wintour likes her style. However, there is no guarantee.
According to Cosmopolitan for example, there are rumors that Anna Wintour is disinviting the Kardashians because they are controversial. As Meghan has also been causing quite a stir recently, it is doubtful whether the editor-in-chief really wants her to attend the fashion gala.
