“I like extreme emotions,” says Keir Gilchrist. “It’s why I like angry or sad music.” The 24-year-old actor, dressed entirely in black on a sunlit rooftop lounge in Chelsea, looks like he’s telling the truth.

Rachel BROSNAHAN

Karen Gillan

July 29, 2014

Karen Gillan doesn’t want to talk about her hair. In every interview, heck, in practically every conversation, the 26-year-old actress has had in the past year—ever since she whipped off a wig to reveal a bald head at the Comic-Con Convention in the summer of 2013—her coiffure has been the subject of immense interest.

Tim Coppens learned about fashion on his skate board. That wasn’t his only education—like Haider Ackermann and Kris Van Assche before him, the 37-year-old Belgian designer attended Antwerp’s Royal Academy of Fine Arts, graduating in 1998— but it was after school, living and skateboarding in Barcelona, Berlin, and New York, that his distinctive, functional, sport sensibility for menswear came into focus.

Robert Geller’s greatest achievement in fashion occurred on the edge of disaster.

Antonio Azzuolo

January 20, 2013

Umit Benan

January 20, 2013

“The clothes come last,” says 32-year-old designer Umit Benan.“It’s always like a movie scene: finding the characters, finding the stories, and then, after that, trying to dress the characters. It’s not about fashion; it’s more about the story.”

Elizabeth Debicki

August 24, 2012

We don’t get to see many female athletes in films. Hollywood occasionally throws us a superhero or Bond Girl bone, but these amped-up stereotypes rarely resemble the real deal. So it is with great refreshment that 22-year-old Aussie stunner Elizabeth Debicki enters mainstream cinema with a set of clubs.
