At 24, Tyler Mitchell has already
made history for being the first black
photographer to shoot a magazine

Musician, designer
One of the most distinctive
new voices in music, Jesse Jo
Stark describes her sound as

songstress also happens to
be Cher’s goddaughter and
the child of the founders of
Chrome Heart, which she
has been designing for since
she was 6. The Met Gala

than famous connections.
