For the latest episode of Vogue's rapid-fire interview series 73 Questions, Editor in Chief Anna Wintour is in the hot seat. The whole thing is highly choreographed and almost feels like a Vogue play. There's a mini-tour of the office and special guest appearances by Karlie Kloss, who asks if Anna prefers vintage or new (answer: new), and Oscar de la Renta who, over speaker phone, queries Anna about her favorite flowers (answer: tuberose). Anna remains perfectly poised throughout, and wears sunglasses inside for about half of the video. After the jump, see some of our favorite responses including confirmation of Anna's flip phone ownership and her most hated fashion term; the full clip is above.
