Andre Leon Talley
Look at 'American Idol,' which I don't look at. Those winners haven't become household names except for Jennifer Hudson, and she was a reject. You can't aim to be a household name. You just have to be successful.
Andre Leon Talley
I always feel comfortable, basically in any situation except perhaps airports.
Andre Leon Talley
When I have interns, I always say, 'Handwritten thank-you notes can make a difference.' People remember that - not an e-mail, a handwritten note in an envelope.
Andre Leon Talley
It's always great to have things from France at a wedding. It's symbolic of style, of culture, of taste.
Andre Leon Talley
It's incorrect to assume you can be a fashion editor because you blog, if you don't have experience to look at fashion in a professional way.
