Timeline
Andre Walker (born 1965) is a British-born fashion designer.
Walker emerged from the downtown New York fashion scene in the 1980s.
Known for his eclectic style and avant-garde silhouettes, former Vogue creative director André Leon Talley called him an "unsung genius."
Along with his eponymous fashion line, he has also designed for WilliWear.
Born in London, Walker and his family moved to Brooklyn when he was 10 years old.
As a child, he began sketching clothes in fashion magazines.
His Jamaican mother was a hairdresser and she supported his aspirations.
He experimented with construction such as dresses made of two T-shirts, and his mother sold his first designs in her hair salon.
Walker was part of the downtown New York club scene in the 1980s.
At 15, Walker had his first fashion show at a nightclub called Oasis in Brooklyn in 1980.
In the next few years, he has fashion shows at Danceteria and the Roxy in New York City.
Eventually, his creations were sold at Patricia Field's boutique on 8th Street in Greenwich Village.
The collection was based on the clothing he designed between 1982 and 1986.
While he was a senior in high school in 1983, Walker began to gain recognition for his "pantskirt," a unisex garment that combined slacks and a belted over-skirt that wrapped around the front.
Walker called it his "African diplomat son's look" because it was "very rich and regal-looking."
In 1986, Walker produced a fashion show at the Palladium nightclub.
Most of the models for the show were Walker's friends and relatives, including his mother.
In 1989, Laurie Mallet, president of WilliWear, hired Walker to design the women's collection.
In April 1990, Walker's Fall 1990 collection for WilliWear was poorly received by the fashion press.
This coupled with financial problems led the company to file Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1990.
In 1991, Walker moved to Paris with the sponsorship of Bjorn Amelan, former partner of designer Patrick Kelly, and he launched his own line.
In 2017, Walker presented his Spring 2019 Ready-to-Wear collection at the Musée des Art Décoratifs in Paris.
