Summary

Andre Leon Talley is a fashion icon who’s survived a lot. He’s been beaten for being gay. He’s had to swallow his tongue when fashion people were overtly racist. He’s had to learn how to make it in a difficult world. He’s brilliant and deep and has a lot to teach us all. Let me know what you think. Twitter: @toure.
