"A moving, inspiring memoir from a leading voice in fashion about owning who you are, taking up space, and being seen in a world that doesn't want to recognize you for who you are. So many people think of fashion as superficial, or artifice. For Prabal Gurung, it is a direct expression of who he is. His path to becoming a successful, celebrated fashion designer who has dressed the world's most powerful women-from Oprah Winfrey to Michelle Obama to Kamala Harris-has never been easy: his very existence has always threatened the status quo. Walk Like a Girl is a memoir and manifesto about Prabal's journey from a childhood in Nepal where he was unrelentingly teased, bullied, and beaten for his innate femininity, to the consistent racism and sexism he encountered-and continues to encounter-as he rose up within the glossy world of New York high society and high fashion. No matter how brutally he was punished for being himself, Prabal always knew that the things people wanted to shame and beat out of him were very same things that made him special. This powerful and empowering memoir inspires readers to follow their instincts, celebrate what makes them different, and always question and challenge the status quo-and by doing so, redefine what it means. Walk Like a Girl is proof that you can take a taunt and turn it into a powerful life philosophy. It is also an invitation to be bold, to be colorful, to defy stereotypes, because you deserve to be seen"--
