André Leon Talley on Studio 54, his love of UGG and Bridgerton, and inauguration day fashion

André Leon Talley is a fashion icon and American Vogue’s former editor-at-large. He joined Tom Power to discuss the magic of New York's Studio 54, how the pandemic is changing our idea of formal wear, his love of UGG and Netflix’s Bridgerton, and what he thought of the fashion on U.S. presidential inauguration day. Tonight, he’ll be giving a talk alongside fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg in support of the Art Gallery of Ontario’s upcoming exhibit, Studio 54: Night Magic. cbc.ca/1.5906661

RIP. Sweet soul. I could listen to stories about Studio 54 for days. Anytime I meet someone older I always ask if they got to experience Studio 54. You would be surprised how many regular non famous folks have stories.

[@ksentertainmenttv0847]

I love the way describe the feeling of Studio 54. I can see it in my mind as describe the engery of the vibe.

RIP

[@garssympa500]

I thought Tom Power was very impressive in this interview. André Leon Talley seemed to get impatient in the second half of the interview and Tom just rolled with it. It would have thrown off many radio hosts.

[@tabithabryan]

He is a name dropper and stuck in the past.

[@tabithabryan]

@@hitakkjismith3115 True👍🏼

[@Jaidzeka36]

Good point

[@littleladybugmom]

They are talking about studio 54 of course he's gonna name drop.

[@BOLLOCKS1968]

Definitely living in the past. If his clothes /capes /small tents are high fashion then no thanks!

Mr Fashion Icon didn't notice there was a size requirement

[@xrrrismickey]

She's signed up with a model agency is a joke

[@atashawright4348]

This man from Washington,D.C with a British accent. Broke as a damn skunk. Oh how we perpetrate and put on airs. When will it end

[@puggirl007]

And did he not know a dentist? He is in poor health

[@thomasrankin8771]

@@puggirl007 he is actually from Durham, NC

[@scrillscrill1099]

He is from N. Carolina. Some celebrities still are well off but " broke" by poor peoples standards. He lived in Paris long enough to not sound southern.

[@20thcenturyboy85]

FYI: He was famous in the Magazine world for the Fashion trade. He is also an older gentleman who is now retired. The guy is eccentrically awesome and an iconic character! If you listen to him about his passion for clothes, this really comes out. He still shines.

Leon Tally was a giant in the fashion world. God Rest his soul.🙏
