Andre Leon Talley

Queen Kong.

"Is he and Wintour..." Oh, dear.

Does he actually think draping himself in these fancy tents actually covers the fact that he's a whale?

Obese old man with severe mobility limitations. Long past his prime. His swan song famewhoring in 2017 didn't really deliver for him.

Here’s a tidbit... He’s fond of eating.

Not very many people know this, but his in fact, morbidly obese.

He smells like pressed elderberry and butterfly kisses.

He was a complete bore on antm.

Read an interview with him in the Guardian a while ago. He came across as a kind of lost now that Conde Nast dumped him, the front row, freebie rich free ride was over. Not really sure what he actually did at Vogue. Wintour once staged an intervention to try to get him to lose weight.

Seems like he's mostly living in the past, reading and quoting Diana Vreelands book, she died 30 years ago. He has absolutely nothing new to say.

Just super pretentious, unable to hang on to vague notoriety by association. I caught the documentary of his life and found it so tedious and overblown, like Tally himself. He appeared on a panel afterward, and it was very awkward and stilted, with panelists not knowing quite what to say about him. A huge focus of his documentary was his personal trauma of observing the 2016 presidential election slip away from Clinton, a compelling and sympathetic plot device, but ruined by the inclusion of Maureen Dowd, another phony loser. It may be a sad reality of a broke hoarder with serious health issues, and that’s unfortunate, not to be wished upon anyone. It must be really hard to have enjoyed so much attention and access, and then, not. Even his biggest supporters spoke of him in a coded, polite way on camera. It must feel like high school, being sent away from the cool table at lunch and being on the wrong end of things, and so vulnerable in a public way. It’s like an allegory. Poor guy.

He’s pretentious and ridiculous in a way that many people working in the fashion industry are. Fashion is by nature pretentious and ridiculous. However, many people find it unbearably strange coming from an enormous 6 ft+ black man. People have a real problem with Tally’s success in what is the very very white world of high fashion. There’s always this attempt to downplay his talent. Black people don’t reach that level; where no one looks like you, without a great deal of talent.

He’s 67. He reached The highest heights of the fashion world and spent decades there. After a 40 yr career, what else does he need to do? He owns a beautiful home in NC. He may not be rich but he can live off of his retirement.

And he has caftans!

I was surprised he was invited to Lee Radziwill's funeral, but apparently they were close.

What did ALT achieve in fashion? He was never a designer, never a trendsetter, more just like a hanger on, a pretender uncle Tom.

So ironic that Lee Radziwill who was so dismissive of what she derisively called Fags ended up becoming the ultimate Fag Hag.

ALT and Lee, Fatty and Skinny.

Coming out with a designer bedsheet line based on his caftans.

ALT snuggled up to Lee because he is a shameless social climber. Lee, like her mother before her, had dementia, and thought ALT was the king of an African country and thus would bestow diamonds and leopard print on her aplenty.

I know one of the local “dick dancers” here in Dallas. Well he also moonlights as an escort. (Surprise, surprise!) This white boy (man I guess - he’s 27) told me one night he was called to the Mansion on Turtle Creek Hotel and when he got to the room, he met a “very large” black man who had hired his “services” for 3 hours. He had no idea who Andre was, but later found out when a fellow escort told him. He said Andre was EXTREMELY generous and proceeded to lick the boys feet and balls. I later asked the boy if Andre was wearing a caftan but he said the “old black man was wearing an oversized tee shirt.” Apparently Andre tipped the boy $300 on top of the escort fee!

[quote] What did ALT achieve in fashion? He was never a designer, never a trendsetter, more just like a hanger on, a pretender uncle Tom.

He has a graduate degree (from Brown University) in French literature. He speaks fluent French so he went into publishing. Imagine that. He studied French literature and he became a magazine editor. He is pretentious and ridiculous but talented. He was probably overly qualified to work as a magazine editor but uniquely qualified to work as a fashion magazine editor. How many people working for Vogue have graduate degrees and are bilingual or how many were there when Talley started. Again black people don’t reach that level without a considerable amount of talent. His flamboyance May be off putting. However he is very smart and accomplished.

R22 - The “education” from Brown was achieved just because of the reason he is black. He was chosen because of affirmative action, not his intellect. It is widely known at Brown that he was passed in his classes by the administration, not his abilities.

I’m disappointed Anna didn’t make Caftans! the theme of a Met Gala as a tribute.

Some women in power feel more powerful keeping a gay man as an office accessory and lapdog to amuse them.

BS R23, troll

Taping a scene for his awful documentary, ALT appeared on location and introduced himself by announcing loudly “I need coffee!”

That’s unbecoming behavior independent of age, race, or professional standing. It’s also really cheap and cynical to blame a really poor reputation solely on simply being successful but looking different. That lazy argument demeans those who actually do behave appropriately yet are truly marginalized for something unchangeable about themselves. That still happens too often, but not quite here. A rude egomaniac is simply that. Turds come in all colors and sizes, but these alone don’t determine their reputation in this modern world. Sorry to wake you.

I sat behind him on the Concorde flying to Paris. He was huge, dressed all in brown leather, his rolls of fat spilling into the seat next to him. He was well known to the crew and was actually quite nice. He spoke French the entire time.

I thought he was dead......never mind....

R28 I ran into him around this time and said hello to him in Paris. He wore a chalk striped suit and seemed shy but not standoffish. This was at the Ritz. Anna Wintour was with him. She was much more aloof. It seemed like she was registered as a guest, yet ALT was saying goodnight and heading to another hotel or apartment. His French is generally good, not great. I hope his health holds out. Part of my discomfort seeing him is that I could see myself becoming detached from my own social stature some day. I hope people will be kinder in their perceptions of me than they are of him. Everyone is different, I know, and so are their histories. You never know the hidden complexity of others’ lives. I wish him well.

Ma’am cut the bullshit. Contrary to your idiotic white supremacist beliefs. That is not al all how Affirmative Action works and that’s certainly not how graduate school works. Nonwhites have to work twice as hard to get half as far. And idiots like you are the ones who are granted a free ride via the “good old boy network.” Then you turn around and question the qualifications of people who actually had to work.

I bet when he farts, those caftans really help him take flight, or at least float a few inches off the ground.

What little I've seen and heard of him he seems like a typical affected fraud.

He’s morbidly obese. I’m sure he’ll die soon from heart disease.

Isn’t he best friends with Whoopi? Can’t she toss some coins ALT’s way to maintain the lifestyle to which he is accustomed?

r23, your a dumb ass racist bitch. Die in a grease fire, you whore.

[quote] I bet when he farts, those caftans really help him take flight, or at least float a few inches off the ground.

The Goodyear Blimp couldn't get him to float a few inches off the ground.

R33, Ya think?

Editor Andre Leon Talley, who worked for Brown's rival, Vogue editor Anna Wintour, apparently wrote Brown a note when she left Vanity Fair, saying, "You are tacky, tacky, tacky, dowdy, dowdy, dowdy, and I hope never to see you again in your borrowed designer dresses."

earrings

and

CAFTANS

More hay-making and less sashaying when the sun shines, Mr Talley.

A slim man in a big coat, or a big man in a slim coat...........

She’s in retrograde, I believe.

But what did he actually do?

Having a graduate degree in French Literature and being black doesn't mean you do anything in particular.

He wrote a gossipy fashion column in Vogue. I enjoyed it.

She and Kevin Sessums could film a reality series where they both live together - à la Jackie On Assistance - in a studio apartment in Hudson NY.

He had an extraordinary career in fashion. Perhaps silly to most people but there it is. He knew everyone and saw everything. It's sad now to see him on the way down. And fat.

Of course his junior-high insults to Brown HAD to be appearance-related. The worst insults in his shallow mind, no doubt.

R48 I can’t recall from that documentary. Did he really disparage Brown U? I should recall from the documentary but was so bored that I lapsed into a coma.

Tina Brown, not Brown University.

[quote] She and Kevin Sessums could film a reality series where they both live together - à la Jackie On Assistance - in a studio apartment in Hudson NY.

"The Real Homosexuals of Schitt's Creek"

R50 Oh! Thank you for this clarification.

He seems awful and ridiculous.

Those capes! Who does he think she IS!

[quote] Who does he think she IS!

Anna Wintour's chief winged monkey for the last thirty years.

But now... no longer.

Pretentious, affected social climber.

What happened between him and Anna?

If he really did insult Brown I can just imagine thing things she said about him in private. The KKK would have probably been proud of her. I've known people on that social strata in my lifetime, and they all, every single one of them, drop all the pretenses when they're in private, or think they are.

He’ll be buried in a piano box.

He didn't have a carer in fashion, he had a semblance of a career in magazine writing or special events or whatever the hell he was being paid to do. Still haven't figured it out. I'm amazed he was able to be paid for literally doing nothing as long as he did. If he hadn't been a friend of Wintour's no one would have given a fuck about him.

If he hadn’t been a friend of Wintour’s, he would have been a big fat drag queen who didn’t even dance, but sat on a stool and lip synced.

Should we start a Kickstarter campaign to keep him in this season's caftans?

Is a caftan just a MuMu for men?

In his case a caftan is a former circus tent repurposed into his daily wardrobe.

I can’t even fathom how bad his farts smell after he polishes off two tubs of Popeyes fried chicken and a gallon of red beans & rice.

OMFG! Damn you R64. You almost made me shoot my bevvy out through my nose!! LOL LOL LOL

I'm ok with the caftans. At his current weight, what do you expect him to wear?

We had to submit a PHOTO on a Brown application. The only one that required that, back then. (Still now?)

Why are/were Radziwill and Wintour friends with him? I imagine them to be the type of bitches who loathe fat people. Or does that only apply to fat women?

Do you think he’s ever had sex in his life?

Did your read the thread? He hires rentboys. And not to steam press his caftans.

He might suck off a rentboy but that's about it. Imagine trying to get to that dick? He'd need ropes and pulleys and scaffolding to hold up the rolls n rolls of flab just to access his dick, that's of it even works anyone at that level of obesity. Likewise NO rentboy would fuck that mountain. How does one even wipe and douche at that size?

When he guests on Andy Cohen's show, he can barely fit on the chair.

He wasn't always fat, dears.

Somehow I think Karl may have remembered their 'friendship' differently. 'Ick, that fat man who thought he was my friend,'

Karl Lagerfeld was enormously obese for years, lest we forget!

Yes, do as I say, not as I do. At least I had the dignity to hide my fatness behind a fan, no?'

R64 People with graduate degrees in French Literature don't fart!

Hilarious R77

R74 That article was so pretentious and lurid. Their friendship was important because ALT was able to get free trips and special clothes? Putrid nonsense about two really gross old fops. “Fra fra fra my diamond buttons...” What a tedious gasbag freeloading dandy and what a taker. ALT sounds like he was cast aside for Lagerfeld’s spoiled cat Choupette. Even really rich people must have gotten so sick of feeding, dressing, housing and listening to him. The creepy obsessive focus on precise collections of old clothes and specific seasons of fashion sounds oddly autistic. Someone must have been given an ultimatum to get him off the payroll at Vogue. He went out of fashion, cast aside, tattered old finery .

People obsessed with the intricate details and history of fashion are so absorbed because they have very little in their lives. Usually effeminate gay men who long to be women or rich society matrons without much to do. Lagerfeld, Yves Saint Laurent, Hamish Bowles, ALT, Tom Gunn, Tom Ford, Lee Radziwill, Suzy Menkes, Anna Wintour, Duchess of Windsor, Nan Kempner. These people live very shallow and unfulfilled lives.

You are really an idiot. There was nothing shallow and unfulfilled about Lagerfeld and Saint Laurent, who were immensely successful creatively and on the business side as well. Tom Ford at least is a successful business man. The rest, I will grant your argument.

R71 - I would fuck him for $25,000.

R81 I saw an interesting documentary on the plane about these two (Lagerfeld & St. Laurent). They overlapped a lot in their careers and lives.

Spy magazine used to lampoon this crowd pretty effectively, coining terms like “Knock-knee Nan Kempner”. There was a lot of phony ridiculousness in that crowd. ALT seems to have lived on it, and that documentary “Gospel According to..” shows him savoring the last trickle of it. The title alone speaks to the poor old guy’s hugely inflated sense of self-importance. It’s interesting to witness someone with a bad reputation but discovering it so late. When I read about him, I think “Oh shit! I’d better be nicer and smarter so that I don’t end up like this guy.” With all these notable mentors, didn’t anyone ever say “Hey, man. Cut the shit!”? Maybe Tina Brown? Also, lumping a really shitty reputation into race and appearance alone is a dirty cop out. There is plenty to dislike here that has nothing to do with that at all.

r81 Lagerfeld not shallow? Hmmm, you'd better read some of his quotes. Yves Saint Laurent unfulfilled? Because happy and fulfilled people take all those drugs. All these people had in their lives was the next collection.

R84 as far as Lagerfeld, you are confusing chic bitch with shallow. Yves Saint Laurent was a minor among the great designers and perfectly fulfilled creatively and professionally. Many artists are drug abusers. What's your point?

Didn't Pierre Berge come out and say after Saint Laurent died that he was never happy, he was never meant for joy. He had a deep vain of depression running through him. Clinical depression. Manic depression. He was self medicating with drugs.

Comparing ALT with life long successful designers is idiotic. ALT was a sycophant.

Who compared the fat lump to successful designers? I'm merely suggesting that the fashion industry seems to attract shallow, damaged people, successful or not.

What’s a sycophant?

R80 did. I

I have an extraordinary amount of hate for Tom Ford. I’m not sure why, but the sight of him disgusts me.

ALT once nearly sat on me, and things were never the same between him and Daddy-Karl.

I’m not The Comeback troll, but On HBO Lisa Kudrow created a character, her co-dependent hairdresser, who was talented and witty but stood outside of real intimacy and self-knowledge. The show looked at him in a tough but ultimately compassionate way. There was a clever plot device, set at an airport ticketing counter, where Kudrow’s character learns that her friend is not budgeted to travel with her to some industry event, and she pauses for a moment before handing over her credit card for his first class airfare. She mutters something like “what the hell...we’ll sort it out later”. The actor who played the hairdresser was so goddamn effective, and it was so interesting to see how they built narrative around him. But then again, this character was good at something (wigs?) and intermittently spoke some truths. Yet he also hired hustlers and behaved in super-needy, queeny ways (“I need to eat something before I faint...”). I really admired the way they handled him. Anyway, I’d hope that someone like ALT has some supportive people around him. The public, tabloid bits I see about him are disturbingly unpleasant (vanity, ego, materialism, pomposity), but maybe there is a nicer guy under those robes and jewels. I’d hope so. Outwardly, however, he looks and sounds like a real mess. If I were in his shoes, I’d give a pile of money to Brown or SCAD or a social service agency that helps displaced creative kids. He could use some goodwill, maybe pay forward some of the lavish good fortune that came to him in his prime, 30 years ago.

I have met him, he's actually a very sweet man. I expected him to be aloof and bitch and he wasn't at all

r92 the closest he's ever come to a pussy

Perhaps there's more to him than the outward appearance and attitude.

R82: How?

R94 - Delivering his food as an UberEats driver doesn’t qualify as “meeting” him.

Not funny 98, actually met him at a party

R80 I completely agree.

[quote] What’s a sycophant?

In short, someone who sucks up to someone for personal gain.

R99 - awww bless your heart. No you didn’t meet him at a party.

He must be desperate or running out of cash. I just saw a preview of him on a “celebrity” version of the TV show “My 600 Pound Life” coming out in the fall.

R103 He needs to go on Celebrity Fit Club or a celebrity version of The Biggest Loser.

Why all the hatred? He’s pretty much harmless.

R105 - are you new here? We hate any bitch who gets to sit front row at NYFW.

I find him interesting. And for the record we are proud of him in North Carolina. Our Museum of Art recently had him as a speaker related to one of our exhibits on fashion. He was terrific.

He’s had a wonderful career.

A career as what? He never actually did anything. What did he ever produce or create?

R108 - he was a token gay black man to have around in the public eye so the fashion industry leaders could practice their low key racism without guilt.

What if she ended up as a basketball player in another life?

ALT was upset when he learned that Kim and Kanye had his image blurred on their KUWTK wedding episode.

He's bitchy and gossipy and a snob--not exactly someone I would consider to be a role model.

R111, A blurred ALT.

[quote] Why the hatred?

Why not?

I wonder if he ever broke Anna Wintour's toilet in her house.

"ANNA!! It happened AGAIN! Can't you buy stronger porcelain??"

He didn’t break it, but he did clog it with 10 pounds of defecated KFC and 6 butter biscuits.

"ANNA! Could you come up here? I've clogged it AGAIN, and I'm too upset to work the plunger myself!"

Fuck y'all bitches! Y'all's know that I'm bettah than you!

I’d let him suck my dick, but he would have to take me to meet the male models.

He should burn all those Dapper Dan designed ghetto caftans and go back to wearing a suit, even if he is huge he would look better and be taken more serious.

He should go on a diet. That's not going to happen either.

I think deep inside hes still a scared,poor little black boy. All the pomp and grandiose airs are just masks. The fact that he got where he did starting from grinding poverty is pretty goddamn remarkable if you ask me. And I LIKE that gold robe at R118 .

I saw his documentary on Netflix or Amazon and he actually came across as a NORMAL, kind man. It explained his background, his family- he was very honest without a hint of pretense.

He was quite lovely and I was shocked.

I admire him for simply being who HE wants to be-

But there must be some deep issues there. He uses food for comfort, such as an alcoholic uses vodka. He’s covering something up.

Who started this mean spirited thread. Let black, worldly, educated Kato Kaelins be great.

"You can fix the toilet yourself Andre, you're the one with the graduate degree in French Literature"

Can we have an "Andre on Assistance" show please?

ALT's address to the Oxford Union:

I made it through that clip, recognizing some ideas from that vapid failure of a documentary “The Gospel According to Andre”. He seems amiable enough. While there are certainly people who may find inspiration in his story, it sounds like an awful lot of materialism and name-dropping.The characters are admired in the fashion world, but they are not necessarily the broad cultural icons that ALT considers them to be. His relationship with Karl Lagerfeld seems so greedy and vulgar (“Ooh he gave me this, ooh invited me, and only me, to that...” ). When he describes his grandmother chopping wood, I wonder did he try to help her? Is his devotion tied to how much people do for him, celebrate him or feed him? The founder of SCAD blowing him kisses looked kind of silly. It’s an amazing institution. I hope they get more than all his old clothing from him. Sadly, he seems like a really pretentious old gasbag, oddly disconnected from anything practical, meaningful or interesting. He’s no Langston Hughes, he’s simply languid and huge.

This thread about him being a cunt supreme to staffers at a Houston museum fashion exhibit was funny

r130 The typical entitled behaviour of someone who has come from nothing who now believes they deserve special treatment because they are successful.

There is nothing nellier than a chocolate sister!

He’s trash who got lucky. He should be taking your order at Church’s Fried Chicken.

Do you think that EJ Johnson sees his future here?

Johnson could inherit a massive trust fund or bequest. So, no.

I almost feel sorry for EJ and Andre. Going through life knowing no one will ever be attracted to you must be awful.

I walked past him in the street once many, many years ago. He was sitting/leaning on a planter...He was fatter in person and shabby...clothing looked worn and doesn't look like he showered.

R137 - probably very difficult with all those folds and rolls to keep it sanitary. The stench must be unbearable.

You could park a Fiat in his nostrils.

[quote] Do you think that EJ Johnson sees his future here?

Given my exquisite taste in fashion, it's inevitable!

^^^EJ's other fashion role model is Victoria Brisbane, obviously.

EJ Johnson might be the least fuckable person on the planet. Even moreso than Andre Leon Elizabeth Talley Wintour.

[quote]Do you think that EJ Johnson sees his future here?

Room for one more in that seeable future?

Fashion people are the most vapid, materialist, superficial people in the world. The combination of a meaningless and useless focus in life combined with the intense bitchiness of most people in the industry makes anyone who stays in it seriously screwed up in terms of life priorities and moral compass. ALT may have a different starting point but by living in it and consciously choosing it, he has become just as vapid and clueless as everyone else in the industry.

[quote]He didn’t break it, but he did clog it with 10 pounds of defecated KFC and 6 butter biscuits.

Amateur.

This is one of the greatest post of all TIME. Truly epic snark.

Who in the hell would want to look at him in the eye? I would be so horrified at his body I wouldn't be able to do anything but look away in disgust.

And what's hilarious is that he and Anna Wintour are supposed to be this big fashion experts. They always look like shit. I can't believe Anna has the nerve to walk out of her house everyday. She is head to toe hideous. And for some insane reason she insists on wearing sleeveless or short sleeved dresses. Her arms look twice as old as Madonna's hands. Has Ms Wintour never seen a picture of herself?

Many years ago I worked an entry level serving gig at a major function attended by Lou Reed, Laurie Anderson, Issac Mizrahi types, Mr. Talley was also one of the attendees. He is the only one who offered me a tip and a smile. Is he broke now because in his heyday he tipped the help while his peers and "betters" didn't bother to tip or even fucking pay their bills? Ie: MAGA don't pay his fucking bills.

Yall think he's not getting any dick but he probably is. There are black men out there into his type, believe it or not. They might make him put on a wig and some women's lingerie though 😁

And even if brothers aren't fucking him for free, he can just buy one!

oh, and my post is in reference to EJ

Will he be bequeathing his muumuus to FEMA for emergency shelter purposes?

He appears to have lost some weight recently, if this photo posted today is any indication.

A huge, billowing black tent can make anybody appear slimmer, R151.

Steven Assanti would look positively svelte if he just wore enough black canvas.

Now that Billy Porter has stolen his shtick and one upped Talley to real dresses with a REAL FIGURE, he is destined for the history files.

WHET Andre "Caftans" Talley?

Andre is on my deathwatch 2020. I think his heart will give out at a fashion show and it will be a fitting dramatic ending.

I find him fascinating because I don't know what exactly he did at Vogue but he was all over the place. Anyone enlighten me?

André Leon Talley - September Issue Deleted Scene

Spend time with André Leon Talley in this deleted scene from The September Issue, as he visits Paris, shopping and having a "summer shirt " custom made - an absolute necessity for lunching on Karl Lagerfeld's terrace in St. Tropez.

He's sweet, and he does what he loves, and makes it a point of finding beauty everywhere he goes. Good for him!

I get it now, he's a walking Christo installation. Hopefully he is safely secured during high-winds.

The Vogue offices look rather ordinary. I'm sure Dollar Trees headquarters look more appealing.

R157, I agree. I really liked him in the documentary. He actually seemed like someone who probably has a lot of emotional pain that he has hidden away by living the fashion world. Hence his weight. He came across as very down to earth- even his home was down to earth. He would be interesting to talk to.

Exactly R160 - god forbid somebody has a successful interesting life doing something they love. Especially if they’re a fatty. You’d think with all the crap we all had to take Growing Up Homo there’s be a little more acceptance of oddballs around here.

He should write a memoir.

Growing up poor in the South, making it big in the fashion world in the era of the true supermodels, the AIDS crisis of the 80s, etc...

I'd read it.

“This one was fabulous, that one was fabulous, but I was the most fabulous of all! Everyone doubted me but I proved them all wrong! The end.”

There’s the memoir.

R156

Andre looks like he's lost a lot of weight in that clip from last year.

R165 I'm sure he'll find it again.

Yves Saint Laurent a MINOR talent? I’m still reeling. Le smoking, for christ’s sake.

[quote] Growing up poor in the South, making it big in the fashion world in the era of the true supermodels, the AIDS crisis of the 80s, etc...

He is incredibly shallow, limited, and self-absorbed. Watch the doc if you don't believe me.

Andre’s the ultimately sad sycophant.

He looks like the Chrysler Building if it had a huge ass.

R13 I have no idea what he did at Vogue, nor can I figure out in what areas he is talented. He was just lucky that Vreeland took a liking to him for some reason.

Look, he's handy to have around in case a bursting dam needs plugging.

He should be a judge on RuPaul’s Drag Race

R175. You are so right. He'd be great.

Towards the beginning of that blockbuster biopic, "Anna, the 7 Vogue Dwarfs, and then there's Andre," at Paris Fashion week, a couple of journos ask ALT what his role at Vogue is. Damned if he can answer the question. The accident happens at approximately 5:56 on my purchased from the Microsoft store file.

Does Andre remove his caftan prior to using the facilities? Or does he pronounce it Fah-sill-ee-tay?

FABULOUS! JUST FABULOUS!!!

I would love to see him join forces with Chrissy Metz on a project.
