This Fashion Editorial Is About the Beauty of Black Gay Love
| 12/16/20
A week ago Justsmile, a magazine with Black creativity as its central point, launched with a slew of covers. Art critic and writer Antwaun Sargent as well as musician Ian Isaiah (in head to toe Hood by Air) are cover stars for the Sydney, Australia-based glossy's first issue that counts stylist Kevin Hunter and photographer Bryce Thomas as founders. They've packed the issue with a variety of features including a portfolio of young Sydney talents as well a conversation with Marcus Leslie Singleton and Tschabalala Self. The hope: to create a support network for creatives of color and to give them an opportunity.
Among the features in the issue was one on Black gay love, created and conceptualized by photographer Elliott Jerome Brown Jr and stylist Becky Akinyode. See the images below.
