Born in Accra in 1959, Leroy Saint James arrived in New York on an academic scholarship to study civil engineering at Columbia. Within a year he’d dropped the degree, taken a studio apartment above a laundromat in SoHo, and started sewing clothes for friends who couldn’t get past the door at Studio 54. By 1979, his bold, body-conscious designs were turning heads from downtown lofts to uptown runways. He now serves as Creative Director of The Laundry Room.
