This is a post dedicated to some of my favorite men’s looks at the Met Gala. Jeremy O. Harris is the author of Slave Play, a controversial Tony-nominated Broadway play that looks at interracial relationships under the lens of slavery. I guess that’s how I would describe it, although I saw the jaw dropping HBO Max “making of” documentary and there’s no way I can do it justice. He absolutely nailed the Black Dandyism theme with this tribute to the original Black Dandies. He should know, he wrote an editorial for Vogue about the theme. I believe he’s in Margiela. (Update: It’s Balmain!)

Oh…my man knows…

Actor Keith Powers was another one of my favorite looks. He was in Boss! I love how this looks like a real suit that someone would wear back in the day and not a costume.

This is Caleb McLaughlin, he’s 23 now and he stars on Stranger Things! I didn’t realize this was him and I posted his photo on Twitter because he’s gorgeous frankly. This could do without the blue gloves, but that’s such a minor complaint. (Update: He’s in Dior!)

Brian Tyree Henry was in Orange Culture, in a look he designed himself. He ate, as they say!

Damson Idris is in the F1 movie with Brad Pitt that’s been taking forever. It will be out late next month. He was in a bedazzled helmet and race suit which tore away to reveal a fabulous burgundy 70s-inspired Tommy Hilfiger suit. This was an excellent look and great promotion.

Speaking of original dandies, here’s Dapper Dan in a zoot suit of his own design! It features a Sankofa symbol on the back, which is fitting.

Damson Idris Lori Harvey

Lori Harvey & Damson Idris are over: ‘We part ways remaining friends’

A few months ago, someone posted a video of Damson Idris and Lori Harvey at a concert. Damson had his arms wrapped around Lori and he seemed totally into her, kissing her and being demonstrative. A lot of women noted that Lori didn’t seem totally into it and I thought that as well – while she enjoyed his attention, she was already over it in some way. Considering Damson was basically her rebound after she dumped Michael B. Jordan – and Damson and MBJ were reportedly friends too – it’s not a surprise to learn that Lori is now officially done with Damson.

Lori Harvey and Damson Idris have gone their separate ways after a little more than one year of dating. In a joint statement shared exclusively with The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday, Harvey and Idris said, “We are at a point in our lives where our individual paths require our full attention and dedication. We part ways remaining friends with nothing but love and respect for each other and the time we shared together.”

The model and Snowfall star initially sparked dating rumors in December last year when they were spotted leaving a West Hollywood restaurant together. The following month, the pair seemingly confirmed their romance on social media when Idris shared a photo of them on his Instagram Story. The two could be seen embracing in the photo as the Outside the Wire actor kissed Harvey on the cheek. Idris also wrote in the post, “Happy Birthday Nunu” followed by a red heart emoji. At the time, Harvey reposted the photo, adding a trio of white hearts to her post.

Lori is 26 years old and a baller. She’s the epitome of “know your worth.” The fact that MBJ was ready to marry her and she listened to her own inner voice and decided she wasn’t ready? That continues to be amazing to me. She was a million times more serious about MBJ than Damson too. Anyway, I hope Damson isn’t too broken up about it. Lori breaks hearts wherever she goes.
