If you’ve glanced at a fashion magazine in the last half-decade (including this one), you’ve probably seen @QuilLemons’s images. In 2021, at the age of 23, the photographer and fine artist became the youngest person to shoot a Vanity Fair cover, and his work has been shown at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the International Center of Photography, among others. His new book, ‘Quiladelphia’—a portmanteau of his name and his native city, and also the name of his first solo exhibition in 2023—explores what it is to be Black, queer, and masculine in the city of Brotherly Love. The book also features a forward by writer @brontezpurnell, an essay by Lemons, and conversations with the artist @lyleashtonharris as well as singer-songwriter (and fellow Philly native) @santigold.

Ahead of the book’s release (on October 28 through @idea.ltd), ‘Real Life Wardrobe’ columnist and photographer @c.fenimore met with Lemons in Brooklyn to chat about working with stars like Ice Spice and Lindsey Vonn, his first pair of Margiela Replicas, and why he’s been “fucking with Buck Mason” lately. Read their full conversation at the link in bio.

Arthur Jafa’s work is always unmistakably his own—if the 65-year-old Mississippi native was involved in a project, his potent and complex perspective shines through loud and clear.

Naturally, that’s also true of the way Jafa dresses. After falling in love with fashion in the ’80s through Martin Margiela’s boundary-pushing collections, Jafa has grown into one of the consistently most stylish men in contemporary art, with a penchant for freaky Rick Owens concoctions, hardwearing Visvim workwear, and sleek Fear of God tailoring.

With a sprawling survey of his work, 'I Am Tony,' now on display at New York City’s New Museum—and an excellent accompanying catalog out now from Phaidon—@c.fenimore met up with @anamibia to discuss the fashion industry’s relationship to Blackness, his deep love for comic books, and the film projects he hopes to pursue next.

i’ve been a long time admirer of @anamibia. my memory is a little foggy as to the first time i experienced jafa’s work, but i can think back to my days working my first art girlie job @artbook and seeing his catalog ‘magnumb’ published in collaboration with the louisiana museum of art (my home state) circa 2020. more recently, i wrote an ekphrastic poem after his 7 minute short film ‘love is the message, the message is death’ which i read @guggenheim last may 🫶🏽. in paris, last august i got teary eyed while watching and listening to ‘aghdra’ in the pinault collection showing @boursedecommerce …back then, could’ve never guessed i’d get to work his exhibition catalog with phaidon co-published by @newmuseum.

from the talk @wsanyc with the book’s designer @callmesabla to the dinner @gourmega in collaboration with @artnoirco @ghettogastro @graymanor and the exhibition preview ahead of the show’s opening among other moments like securing the ‘real life wardrobe’ feature with jafa in @gq this has been nothing short of a dream 💭☄️

in celebration of this ongoing momentous occasion you’ll find some of my favorite photos from ‘i am tony’ the book, exhibition, and highlights from his gq interview with questions and photos by @c.fenimore ✨

For @LeonBridges, it all began with a bunch of hand-me-downs. "There was a moment, when I was like 20 or 21, where one of my mom’s friends passed down some vintage clothes that he used to rock when he was younger,” the singer-songwriter says. Those clothes, mainly 1960s knits, didn’t just ignite Bridges’s love of vintage style—they literally changed the trajectory of his career.

“I decided when I started making music that I wanted to have that consistency, and I wanted my style to reflect the music.”

That led him down a path of what he calls “retro-futuristic” R&B, evolving from the nostalgic soul of his 2015 debut 'Coming Home' to the danceable grooves of his new album 'Happiness Anytime.' "I love the full spectrum of R&B, and I really try to make my songs reflect that," the Grammy winner says.

At the link in bio, read the full interview, where Bridges dishes on meeting Paul McCartney at President Obama’s birthday party, his longtime love of vintage clothes, and his new album.

Haruomi Hosono has nothing left to prove. At 79, he is one of the most accomplished and influential musicians on the planet, most notably through his work with the pioneering 1970s electropop band Yellow Magic Orchestra.

And yet, the Japanese legend just can’t seem to slow down. He just released his critically acclaimed 23rd solo album, Yours Sincerely, and he’s commemorating that landmark with two rare stateside shows.

A few days ahead of his gig at Radio City last week, @c.fenimore sat down with @houseofhosono to discuss the surprising inspiration behind Yellow Magic Orchestra’s iconic “techno cut,” the difference between American and Japanese style, and what motivates him to continue creating new work five decades into his career.
