Dame Anna, 75, is best known as the long-serving editor-in-chief of Vogue, a position she has held since 1988.
She was made a Companion of Honour in the 2023 King’s Birthday Honours list for her services to fashion, joining Dame Judi Dench, Sir Elton John, David Hockney, and Sir Paul McCartney, and said: “It makes me even more convinced that I have so much more to achieve.”
The Order of the Companions of Honour was founded on June 4 1917 by George V and is limited to 65 members at any one time. Appointments go to those who have made a long-standing contribution to arts, science, medicine or government.
Dame Anna, wearing Alexander McQueen, was asked whether it was true the Princess of Wales was offered global covers with Vogue, said with a smile: “Yeah, I don’t know where those (rumours) have come from, do you?”
Dame Anna, who flew in from Dubai and will be going back to New York, said: “It’s wonderful to be back at Buckingham Palace and I was completely surprised and overwhelmed to be given this great honour.
“The last time I was here the Queen gave me a medal and we both agreed that we had been doing our job a very long time, and then this morning His Majesty asked me if this meant I was going to stop working and I said firmly, no.”
Dame Anna has also been running the Met Gala since 1995.
Artist Dame Tracey Emin has also been honoured at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday, along with other recipients.
Dame Tracey, 61, was honoured with a damehood last year for her services to art.
