Fashion icon and former Vogue editor André Leon Talley has died at age 73, a statement released on his official Instagram confirmed late Tuesday.
"It is with great sadness we announce the passing of André Leon Talley on January 18, 2022 in New York," the statement read."Mr. Talley was the larger-than-life, longtime creative director at Vogue during its rise to dominance as the world's fashion bible.
Apart from his contributions to Vogue, the six-foot-six star, known and loved for his sense of humor, honesty and loud, luxurious personal style -- especially when it came to designer caftans -- was an author, curator and TV personality.
Throughout his career, the Durham, North Carolina, native made efforts to introduce more culturally diverse voices into the overwhelmingly white fashion industry and spoke out about his struggles with racism. In his 2020 book,"The Chiffon Trenches: A Memoir," he recalled the emotion he felt when Edward Enninful was named the first Black editor-in-chief of British Vogue.
