Fashion Icons: Leo Mandella
Leo Mandella, a.k.a. @gullyguyleo
Aged 15 with over 500k followers on instagram, Leo's closet is flooded with all of the best streetwear pieces from numerous stone island tops to the latest supreme drops. A streetwear fanatics' dream closet.
Leo Mandella has become one of the most profound figures in streetwear, with other icons such as Tyler, the Creator, Virgil Abloh and Playboi Carti.
Recently Leo Mandella took up a job as a concierge at the Converse One Star Hotel, where he worked with A$AP Nast, Tyler, the Creator, and many more. This young boy from Warwickshire is truly ahead of his time.
I know what you might be thinking, he's a hypebeast. That's not fashion. How is he able to afford Supreme, Louis Vuitton, and all these designer labels? Ugh... rich kid.
This is what fuels Leo to become the fashion influence that he is today.
Leo Mandella, invested his time and money into creating his own business of reselling. This is how he was able to bring himself to the level he is at now and made him stand out from the lack of streetwear in Warwickshire.
Through his keen interest in streetwear fashion, independence and drive to not follow the herd, he has been able to cultivate the fan-base he has today.
Other than being a style influence, Leo also spends time being a model, photographer and working on creative projects with his peers.
Here we see how he progressed from his first few instagram posts to a few of his recents;
And we discuss why he is this week's fashion icon...
1. Whatever you want he has. Don't deny it we all want his closet.
2. His streetwear style has no boundaries.
He never fails to please the eye. Every outfit he wears includes at least one statement piece.
3. I mean come on... he's 15! 15 for goodness sake!!! He's making mad moves too. We're all jealous.
Stay Fresh and ICONIC
