Anne Slowey Movies
One of America's leading experts in haute couture, Anne Slowey built a visible and lucrative career for herself by parlaying her apparel knowledge into a lengthy tenure as the fashion news director and individual style counselor for Elle magazine. Along the way, Slowey developed a much-publicized reputation for her demanding, perfectionist attitude and aggressiveness on-the-job, reason enough for the CW to tap the former Project Runway judge to host the competitive reality series Stylista (2008), which witnesses groups of young hopefuls competing for a covetable job as Slowey's assistant editor at a projected salary of $100k/year. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide- 2008
This competitive reality series tests the skills and knowledge of a handful of style savvy contestants, each hoping to score a job as a paid editorial staff member at Elle magazine, a lease on a swanky Manhattan apartment, and a $100,000 shopping allowance at H&M. Gauging their performances at increasingly outrageous challenges is Anne Slowey, fashion news director at the magazine, who keeps contestants on their toes with an icy over-the-top attitude styled after Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada, whose demeanor, in turn, was based on Vogue's Anna Wintour. At the end of each episode, the competitor who fares worst at the challenge is booted off the show, whittling down the cast until at last, the ultimate stylista is revealed. ~ Cammila Albertson, All Movie Guide
