News Topical, Digital Desk : One such name in the fashion world in front of whom even big designers bow their heads is Vogue's editor-in-chief Anna Wintour. Anna, who has ruled the fashion industry for decades, was portrayed as Miranda Priestly in the 2006 Hollywood movie The Devil Wears Prada.

Anna Wintour  's character Miranda Priestly was played by famous Hollywood actress Meryl Streep. The film was based on the book of the same name by Lauren Weisberger, who was once Anna's assistant.

I think the fashion industry was very worried about me with this film, because it was going to show me in a difficult situation.”

Anna described the film as a cartoon

Anna Wintour described the film as a cartoon. She said, "It was like a cartoon. Yes a cartoon. First of all  Meryl Streep  was wonderful in it. Then I went to see the film and I thought it was very entertaining and fun. Miuccia (Prada) and I talk about it a lot and I say to her, "Wow that was really good for you." You can imagine what she said. Listen it had a lot of humor. It had a lot of wit. It had Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt. They were all wonderful. In the end I thought it was a fair shot."
