My Chiffon Trenches. Memoirs of a Vogue Legend

Andre Leon Talley is one of the most vibrant and memorable characters in the modern fashion industry.
The creative director of American Vogue during the magazine's rise in popularity, as well as a person who had a colossal influence on the... style of two First Ladies of the United States and on the tastes of millions of women around the world.
For years, a constant member of the jury of the most popular fashion show on TV - America's Next Top Model and the author of several illustrated publications on fashion.
In 2020, he was awarded the honorary title of knight of the Order of Arts and Letters of France.
My Chiffon Trenches is an emotional confession that caused a public resonance and has been widely quoted by all major global media.
In his memoirs, Andre Leon Talley reveals for the first time: - about a difficult childhood and experienced abuse; - about working with Andy Warhol, the emotional traumas acquired while serving at Vogue, and discrimination from the Yves Saint Laurent fashion house; 
- about the behind-the-scenes of gloss, shows, and 18+ parties that provide a sober look at representatives of fashion over the past fifty years; 
- about friendships with great people in the fashion industry and show business: Roy Halston, Karl Lagerfeld, Diana Vreeland, Tom Ford, Bianca Jagger, and many others; 
- about personal life and betrayals of loved ones, revealing the true reasons for the quarrel with Anna Wintour. 
The name Andre Leon Talley is familiar even to those most distant from the world of fashion. But in this book, he reveals himself entirely from a different side, even for those who have been following his career for a long time. You feel as if you are living through the most important moments of his life with him.
Alongside the story of Andre himself, you learn intriguing facts about the industry and its most influential figures that only someone from the inside could know.
I would dedicate a film to his stories, which would undoubtedly be more captivating than The Devil Wears Prada.
