You might have come to know our February cover star, Barbie Ferreira, from her dazzling Jonathan Simkhai-designed ensemble at the 2021 Met Gala or have been introduced to her while watching Euphoria where she plays Kat Hernandez.
Ferreira has been in front of the camera from a young age but with the sophomore season of Euphoria now streaming on HBO and a role in Jordan Peele's forthcoming film Nope this summer, it's safe to say that she's officially stepped into a full-fledged screen star. And while acting is her full-time gig nowadays, the star brings a visionary quality to both her theatrical and sartorial pursuits that lends everything she does an otherworldly quality. Take our cover shoot, for instance, in which she poses strikingly in ensembles that traverse the Orlando-inspired theme of gender fluidity. Ferreria, as we've come to learn, thrives in the worlds of fantasy and imagination.
We caught up with the 25-year-old actress to discuss everything from what we can expect from Euphoria's sophomore season to her favorite indie fashion labels, and so much more.
