The magazine article Andre Leon Talley 'Mr. Fashion' by Teri Agins, describes the designs and life of fashion designer Andre Leon Talley. Agins says "The fashion world is a highly competitive, slippery slope that trades on the novelty of designers and personalities who go in and out of style. But for more than 30 years, Talley has managed to stay current, relevant and always in demand."
Talley has flourished in the fashion world because of, what he give credit to, his education. He has always believed that people can do anything they desire if they put forth the effort. He says too many people are taken by the myth of overnight success. Talley is also known for his nurturing support of rising designers and people of all races. This is the root of his success, not only his education but his open mindedness towards new ideas and cultural influences, which has also made him a well known fashion editor.
How does evolution and change affect fashion directly?
How can support of new ideas in differing generations and races affect the fashion world?
