You might recognize him from Kanye West's YEEZY SEASON 1 presentation, or from Hood by Air's first campaign. Or maybe you're one of his 105,000 Instagram followers. Once you see Luka Sabbat, you remember him. The 18-year-old creative (stylist, consultant, model, entrepreneur) possesses not just a grittily regal personal style, but a resume that exemplifies a new creative climate: one where cultural fluency and a singular aesthetic matter a lot more than an arbitrary quality like age. Chalk Sabbat's preternaturally good taste up to a longstanding immersion in skate culture, or a childhood spent traveling in between New York, Paris, and London. Right now, he's part of a circle of style-savvy youth like Ian Connor, Mike the Ruler, and Jayden Smith who are defining a new and opinionated breed of young creative: connected, discerning, and always on point.

Though he's typically seen in high-end streetwear and Saint Laurent, we've shifted the register. Here, Sabbat shows off Fall's finely tuned tailoring and earthy textures in looks from Calvin Klein Collection, Fendi, Loewe, Haider Ackermann, Raf Simons, Sacai, and more.
