Another September Issue Clip: André Leon Talley’s Tennis Lesson

When Vogue editor-at-large André Leon Talley plays tennis, he doesn’t throw on Nike wind shorts and a lacrosse T-shirt that he somehow still has from high school and embarrassingly thinks is still kind of neat-looking. In this unprecedented new footage from the September Issue, he reveals he wears “trousers” by Damon Dash, shirts from Ralph Lauren, and a diamond-encrusted vintage Piaget watch. He hits the court with a Louis Vuitton beach towel slung over his shoulder. He arrives in a black car with a plethora of matching monogrammed Louis Vuitton bags, one containing his racket. “It’s a part of the whole life of being glam,” he says. “I have to get up and approach life with my own aesthetics about style.” With a pretty dreamy-looking instructor at that. Watch them play in the clip!
