Tiffani was happy to see her poppy pottery and paintings of "Savannah Wildflowers" in the pages of Vogue Magazine in a write-up on shopSCAD.  She has a love and great appreciate for Vogue editor-at-large and patron of the arts:  Andre Leon Talley.

Below is an excerpt about Talley taken from www.SCAD.edu:

"In addition to his work at Vogue, Talley is a member of SCAD's Board of Trustees. In May 2000, SCAD honored him with a Lifetime Achievement Award. Subsequently renamed the André Leon Talley Lifetime Achievement Award, the honor has been bestowed on other fashion icons including Oscar de la Renta, Karl Lagerfeld, Miuccia Prada, Tom Ford, Vera Wang, Marc Jacobs and John Galliano. In 2004, Zac Posen was honored with the André Leon Talley New Look Award.

Talley's career at Vogue began in 1983, when he was hired as fashion news director. He served as creative director from 1988-95. After living in Paris, he returned to Vogue in 1998 to take on his current role. His editor-at-large duties led him to be the official voice of Oscar fashion at the 79th Annual Academy Awards and to curate a celebration of Oscar fashion: a retrospective of famous - and infamous - Oscar gowns.

Talley graduated from Brown University with a master's degree in French studies and went on to work with Andy Warhol at Interview magazine. From there, he began to forge a career in the world of high style, working closely with some of the most celebrated names in fashion, the arts and Hollywood.

At the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute, Talley's work with legendary style authority Diana Vreeland confirmed his interest in fashion and its many cultural manifestations. Their relationship is richly detailed in his autobiography, "A.L.T.: A Memoir" (Villard, 2003). His latest book, "A.L.T. 365+" (powerHouse, 2005), chronicles 365 days of his life and offers a privileged and rare inside look at the people and places he encounters in his work and travels."
