collaborated with André Leon Talley

to create a line of limited edition

hand-painted T-shirts which featured

portraits of fashion notables such as

Glenn O’Brien, Lynn Yaeger,

and Olivier Zahm.

“I am paying homage to

high fashion right now by

sporting the lovely

André Leon Talley on my

body, and he feels

SOOOO GOOD...”

about having a T-shirt

with your image!”

Villanueva began using beads to

design wearable portraits characterized

by his sense of color and whimsy.

His creations have been sold in

boutiques and galleries in Manhattan,

Williamsburg, and East Hampton,

as well as online at Fab.com

and 3ptpop.com.
