From church ladies and his first understandings of 'style', to forging a professional path in New York and later Italy as the first design director of Bottega Veneta, later establishing his innovative knitwear label Sansovino 6, and recently Fashion Director at Perfect Magazine, the Ohio-born designer Buchanan retraces his incredible life in fashion so far. As a teacher and co-founder of We Are Made in Italy, Buchanan also talks about the systemic racism which has often written him out of the fashion history books, and advocating for black and brown creatives today.
