On the heels of stories that Anna Wintour is preparing for retirement from Vogue (can you imagine the hooplah when that actually happens?) comes an interesting rumor about what she may fill her time with post-Vogue.

Fashion Week Daily is reporting that Anna may be in the running for an ambassadorship in the Obama administration – England or France are both likely.

FWD points out that once you’ve hosted the Met gala, a state dinner is a piece of cake.

Anna Wintour gets cranky about retirement rumors

By Andrea Kiliany Thatcher on November 24th, 2008

wintour_obe.jpgThe lovely pets over at New York Mag‘s The Cut got their heads nearly bitten off by Anna Wintour recently, when they dared to ask her about *those* nagging retirement rumors.

The scenario went a bit like this…

The Cut: There have been some rumors, and we were wondering if you had plans for retirement.
Anna Wintour: I’m so sorry, I think that’s an extremely rude question. Leave me alone.
The Cut: May we ask what you would do if you did retire?
Anna Wintour: No. Just go away.
The Cut: Okay, thank you, enjoy your dinner.

Er, surely a simple ‘no comment’ response would have sufficed. Jeepers!
