Andre Leon Talley's memoir is not just an account of his difficult journey, but a candid confession of a man whose career was suddenly shattered by the cruel standards of the industry. In his book, Andre shares for the first time his memories of a difficult childhood and abuse at the age of 8, his move to Paris and collaboration with Andy Warhol, discrimination by the fashion house Yves Saint Laurent and his service in Vogue, where he earned a name, reputation and mental trauma that he was not ashamed to talk about. Andre opened the veil of the glossy industry, fully conveying the spirit of the Studio 54 club era, Gianni Versaci and John Galliano shows, the rise of Naomi Campbell's career and other iconic phenomena of those times. He presented dozens of archival photos and exclusive stories that allow you to take a sober look at the fashion of the last fifty years: from Diana Vreeland and Bianca Jaeger to Marc Jacobs and Tom Ford. And also find out why the 40-year friendship with Karl Lagerfeld ended, and what was the real reason for Andre's quarrel with Anna Wintour.
