For the annual Creators issue, Robin Givhan (@robingivhan) profiles fashion designer Grace Wales Bonner, whose clothes combine British tailoring with the sensibilities of the African diaspora. She has made her mark on the fashion industry with astonishing speed: She launched her menswear brand @walesbonner in London seven years ago and there’s been significant industry chatter that she might be named the next menswear designer at Louis Vuitton, a job that would have her succeeding Virgil Abloh, who died in 2021. Even within the small sorority of women helming menswear divisions of legacy fashion houses, Wales Bonner would be atypical because she’s specifically captivated by the beautiful complexity of Black men and the culture that they embody. Through the link in our bio, read why Givhan thinks Wales Bonner is the perfect designer for right now. (📷: @kotobolofo)
