The Chiffon Trenches: A Memoir
by André Leon Talley
There was a point in time when André Leon Talley (ALT) was the moment, quite literally. The Chiffon Trenches follows his ascent, through a series of unexpected twists and turns, to becoming one of fashion’s most influential stylists. Brimming with intimate stories about the who’s who of the fashion world, André’s stroll down memory lane offers an honest-to-goodness view of the volatile power dynamics that exist within the fashion industry – and how they continue to evolve. His climb to, and subsequent fall from, the ranks of the elite, is bittersweet to digest but it was what cemented his place as one of the greatest champions to transform both industry and cultural expectations. Sure to make you laugh, cry and feel all of your feelings long after the last page, André Leon Talley’s journey is a tale of triumph over adversity – or at least an attempt at one.
