This captivating biography chronicles the remarkable journey of fashion legend André Leon Talley-from humble beginnings in rural North Carolina to the pinnacle of the international world of fashion.

Standing tall against all odds, André spun his hardships into a fashion fairytale of his own making.

With exuberant prose and luminous illustrations, this picture book biography shares the inspiring story of majestic icon André Leon Talley and his enduring legacy.
