Anna Wintour can currently be found sitting front row at New York Fashion Week, but the Vogue editor-in-chief isn't just scoping out new looks for the magazine - she may be doing some personal shopping as well.

According to a recent numbers breakdown by The New York Times, Wintour receives a whopping $200,000-per-year allowance devoted solely to her work wear.

Compared to other employees at Condé Nast - the publishing company responsible for titles such as Vogue, W, Glamour, GQ, Architectural Digest, and many more - Wintour's wardrobe budget is staggering.

According to annual salaries on GlassDoor.com as reported by WhoWhatWear, a Condé Nast creative director - the next highest position - makes just $163,333.

The numbers get bleaker as you go down the totem pole:
