Anna Wintour may be at the top of her fashion game, but it appears she's lagging when it comes to modern technology.

In between cheering on players at the U.S. Open in New York on Thursday, the Vogue editor-in-chief was pictured glancing at her cell phone - a rather dated looking flip phone.

The 64-year-old fashion maven was seen peering out from her signature dark sunglasses to look more closely at the tiny screen on the phone, which closely resembles an LG model that first hit the market in 2007.

Odd choice: Her decision to use such an old-fashioned phone is something of a surprise considering Ms Wintour presumably has the most cutting-edge products at her fingertips

Perhaps the editor, who is known to be a creature of habit, simply likes to stick with what she knows best.

Sitting next to Hugh Jackman at the match, she looked typically chic in a floral patterned dress and maroon cardigan, her hair styled in her usual sleek bob.

The usually steely mother-of-two let her guard down to cheer excitedly for the tennis players, throwing her fists in the air and smiling at each exciting moment of the match.

The lively experience was likely a welcome break for Ms Wintour, who has been busy preparing for New York Fashion Week, which officially began on Thursday. 

As arguably the most respected editor in the fashion industry, she is expected to observe many of the big shows from the front row.
