Taylor's suits are something of an enigma in the world of fashion; sharp, fashionable, and exquisitely tailored, they never go out of style and stand as a powerful status symbol. They helped to establish the fashion trends of the Rat Pack, and gave actors like Cary Grant an unmistakable air of distinguished class. A tireless perfectionist even in his nineties, Taylor discusses his unique approach to fashion in a series of candid interviews, and allows the filmmakers into his studio for an rare glimpse of a genius at work. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
