What It's Like to Be Anna Wintour's Assistant: An Instagram Diary

If there's one job in the world that just seems infinitely more fascinating than your average gig, it's being Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour's assistant. Ever since the popularity of The Devil Wears Prada, which depicted the editor as, well, less than pleasant to work for, the general perception has been that she isn't the best boss.

The Daily Front Row set out to uncover the truth about Anna Wintour's assistant—and in the process, they discovered the editor actually has not one but three ladies at her beck and call. Lili Göksenin, Lily Stav Gildor, and Rey-Hanna Vakili have the distinct honor of calling Ms. Wintour their boss. And contrary to what you might think, all three of them appear to be (relatively) normal gals, with boyfriends, cats, and penchants for eating fancy meals in their downtime.
