Description : “I was born from two families where eating well and sharing around a dish were art of living, and cooking and pasturing were passions and religions. And whether you were a cook and a cook by trade, a butcher, a shipwright, a grocer or a teacher, it was his duty and his desire to pass on values, a history, a knowledge, a know-how, a technique and, of course, recipes.” H. D.

    At the age of 21, Yves Saint Laurent took over the direction of the House of Dior after the tragic death of Christian Dior. From 1958 to the autumn-winter 1960 collection, the young prodigy produced some of the most emblematic haute couture creations of the renowned house, from the Trapeze silhouette to the famous beatnik collection… which led to his dismissal from the management of Dior!

    Description : During André Leon Talley’s first magazine job assisting Andy Warhol at Interview , a fateful meeting with Karl Lagerfeld began a decades-long friendship and propelled Talley into the upper echelons by virtue of his shared knowledge and adoration of fashion. He moved to Paris as bureau chief of John Fairchild’s Women’s Wear Daily , befriending fashion’s most important designers. But as Talley made friends, he also made enemies. A fraught encounter with a member of the house of Yves Saint Laurent sent him back to New York and into the offices of Vogue under Grace Mirabella. There, he developed an unlikely but intimate friendship with Anna Wintour, and as she rose to the top of Vogue‘s masthead, Talley became the most influential man in fashion.The Chiffon Trenches is a candid look at the who’s who of the last fifty years of fashion, and proof that fact is always fascinatingly more devilish than fiction. André Leon Talley’s engaging memoir tells the story of how he not only survived but thrived – despite racism, illicit rumors and all the other challenges of this notoriously cutthroat industry – to become one of the most legendary voices and faces in fashion.
