Suzanne Tucker on the California Look and Beyond
San Francisco designer Suzanne Tucker has been a force in the design world virtually since
she started as “secretary” to iconic designer Michael Taylor, who is credited with creating
the California Look. In this intimate look at her career, she talks about her transition to
becoming Taylor’s protégé and successor, how she managed to thrive in San Francisco’s
male-dominated design scene of the 1980s, the launch of her fabric line, why she considers
antiques and vintage pieces to be crucial, how clients have changed over the years, and why
learning what your clients don’t like can often be your most effective tool.
