Dressed in head-to-toe Dior courtesy of Kim Jones and captured by photographer Alexander R Morgan, inside McLaughlin talks about his trajectory on the hit Netflix show and coming of age in the public eye, as well as facing racism from some of its fans. He also reveals that, as the final series gets set to air, he might be ready to take a step back from the spotlight and spend a year in silent meditation, which is honestly a big mood. Elsewhere, Justsmile creative director Bryce Thomas heads to Pharrell Williams’ hometown of Virginia Beach to kit out a bunch of streetcast kids in the polymath designer’s SS24 collection for Louis Vuitton, and South African designer Lukhanyo Mdingi links up with his mentor Mike Amiri for a conversation about making your way in fashion as a rising designer, and how important the support of the generation above is.
