It was really devastating news to hear today that the icon Talley has passed away.
As someone who began her career in fashion editorial, Andre was one of the few people of colour that I had to look onto, and not just because he was a person of colour, but also in many ways.
I wanted to mirror his style of writing. His style of journalism was just so factual, fabulous and entertaining, involving an in-depth breakdown of the fashion industry.
And I was very much inspired by his story, journey and how his upbringing shaped his personality, black, bold, loud and proud. There was something so motivational about Andre. He’s an icon and his legacy will continue to live on.
