Whether it was the climatically charged club scene or the creative fusion of the bustling boroughs, all the various elements systematically bonded to help provide the stimulants he needed during the experimental phase.<\/p>\n<p>He has played with the best of them;<strong> Halston, Oscar de la Renta, Bill Blass<\/strong> and <strong>Anne Klein,<\/strong> can all count him as a once valued teamster, which was demonstrated when they participated in the legendary <strong>\u201cBattle of Versailles\u201d<\/strong> which pitted them against their European contemporaries, <strong>Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, Hubert de Givenchy, Pierre Cardin and Emanuel Ungaro<\/strong>. Burrows impressively managed to make his mark despite the threatening names around him.<\/p>\n<p>The Seventies was admittedly his favorite era, due largely to the laid-back atmosphere and tolerant mindset. This probably explains why he won the Coty Award during that decade, making him the first African-American designer to be bequeathed the honor.<\/p>\n<p>Since closing the doors to his business in 1982 to care for his sickly father an brother, Burrows has remained for the most part shielded from the glares of the spotlight. His private clientele were still fortunate enough to partake of his magic portion from time to time.<\/p>\n<p>And it looks like there will be more good stuff to come since it has been confirmed that Burrows and his brand manager Mary Gleason are intently speaking to potential investors in the hopes of securing funding for the launch of a 2014 collection.<\/p>\n<p>We can hardly wait!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/2013\/03\/21\/trendy-report-designer-stephen-burrows-prepares-to-strut-down-memory-lane\/stephen-burrows04\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6697\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6697\" alt=\"stephen-burrows04\" src=\"http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/stephen-burrows04-620x413.jpg\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/stephen-burrows04-620x413.jpg 620w, http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/stephen-burrows04-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/stephen-burrows04.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/2013\/03\/21\/trendy-report-designer-stephen-burrows-prepares-to-strut-down-memory-lane\/stephen-burrows02\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6698\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6698\" alt=\"stephen-burrows02\" src=\"http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/stephen-burrows02-620x413.jpg\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/stephen-burrows02-620x413.jpg 620w, http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/stephen-burrows02-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/mytrendybuzz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/stephen-burrows02.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<!-- google_ad_section_end -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Stephen Burrows has had the kind of career that necessitates a momentous and nostalgic case study.
