Anna Wintour has an estimated net worth of $50 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth, Anna Wintour net worth page (figures as of September 8, 2026).

Dame Anna Wintour is a British-American media executive who was born on 3 November 1949. She served as editor-in-chief of Vogue from 1988 to 2025 and now serves as global chief content officer and artistic director at Condé Nast. Known for her pageboy bob and dark sunglasses, she is regarded as one of the most powerful women in publishing and has chaired the Met Gala since the 1990s.

Her father, Charles Wintour, edited the London Evening Standard and often asked her for ideas to win young readers. Her first job was at the Biba boutique when she was 15, and in 1970 she became one of the first editorial assistants at Harper's & Queen. She later moved to New York, where she held fashion editor jobs at magazines including Viva, Savvy and New York, before reaching Vogue.

How Anna Wintour makes her money

Her pay has come mainly from salaries as a magazine executive. She joined Vogue as its first creative director in 1983, after a bidding war that doubled her salary. In 1985 she became editor of British Vogue, and in 1988 she took charge of the magazine in New York.

Her influence turned a job title into a wider platform. She ran Vogue for 37 years, until 2025, and now holds a bigger role at Condé Nast as global chief content officer and artistic director.

The Met Gala, which she has led as lead chairperson since the 1990s, is one of fashion's biggest annual events and adds to her influence in the industry.

Pop culture has helped her name. The novel The Devil Wears Prada, written by a former assistant, became a 2006 film starring Meryl Streep as a character believed to be based on her, and the 2009 documentary The September Issue followed her at Vogue.

Her estimate

Celebrity Net Worth estimates Anna Wintour's net worth at $50 million, on its page last updated September 8, 2026.
