As drag evolves into a mainstream cultural phenomenon, Symone remains at the forefront, championing inclusivity and pushing boundaries in the ever-changing landscape of fashion and drag. At the intersection of art and activism, the queen and fashion maven captivates audiences with her powerful runway looks and empowering performances. In an intimate conversation with ODDA, Symone delves into her creative process of crafting unique and boundary-pushing ensembles. Embracing authenticity and self-expression, Symone shares her journey of self-acceptance, healing and growth, encouraging aspiring drag performers to find their voice and make their mark in the industry, all the while advocating for individuality and uniqueness. No trends here, darling. “From birth, we’re taught to believe in boxes. Anytime you’re doing something out of that, it’s a political statement by challenging people’s views and understanding of the world.” – Symone Editor in Chief @davidmartingss In conversation with @benjamin.schiffer Make-up Artist @rylie4ever using @maccosmetics, @fentybeauty, @rarebeauty and @r.e.m.beauty Hair and Wig Stylist @therealchaiseway @factorydowntown using @fentyhair Lighting Tech @tannerdeutsch Fashion Assistants @hannah__loewen and @chiaradegiorgi Conversation edited by @vanessa_kintu Stay tuned and pre-order now in the link in bio #ODDA27WalkMyWay

Transition into adulthood can be somewhat hard to explore. One decision entails the entrance to a different and unique path, and, if one is lucky enough, life can feel like a smooth take off. Former Concorde pilot #JohnTye knows this very well; as a captain, Tye is amongst few privileged men and women who can say they were part of the story of one of humankind’s biggest prowesses. After a career of over 40 years, he shares with ODDA, after being captured at the Brooklands Museum, his life adventures and teaches us a lesson on passion, will, and how to bring your dreams from the clouds down to earth. “My best-selling memoir, “Life of a Concorde Pilot – From The Orphanage to The Edge of Space,” is all about inspiring young people to follow their dreams and believe in themselves. Intended initially just for future generations of my family, I was encouraged to seek out a publisher. The first one I approached, The History Press, took it on board with great enthusiasm. It’s been a tremendous success with 5 star reviews on Amazon. I say in the beginning, “I hope you, dear reader, will find this story inspiring, moving and at times, amusing.” Hundreds say they have.“ In conversation with @choupetik Photographer @paulhempstead Conversation edited by @maddocksmarie Photographer Assistant @fullalove Special thanks to #Mary and the team at @brooklandsmuseum

On-screen stories from the 1965 science fiction novel, Dune have captured the eyes and hearts of audiences everywhere. After releasing film adaptations featuring Zendaya and Timothee Chalamet, the novel has transformed into an @hbo television series Dune: The Prophecy, portraying previously existing lives within and outside of Arrakis through a 6-episode ensemble. Sharing themes of sisterhood, redemption, and truth, @duneprophecy hones in on the relationship between Harkonnen sisters and their efforts to protect humankind. Within the community the Harkonnen sisters have created is @fwayf_way’s character, Sister Jen. Jen is rooted in self-assurance and integrity, being less apt to groupthink, manipulation, and other external influences that trouble her fellow peers. Go deeper with Faoileann as she vividly describes her path from growing up in rural Ireland to being a part of HBO’s most highly anticipated television series. “Obviously, it’s unavoidable that you are going to compare [Dune] to how you experience the world currently. That’s unavoidable. That’s art. But as an artist or as an actor, we have this infrastructure of this futuristic world that are written into the books that holds you in a space of collective exploration.” Article by @nnekanozie Photographer @amylidgett Fashion Editor @hayleydownes_ Make-upArtist @zoetaylormakeup at @comanagementagency Hair Stylist @bencooke_lockonego at @onerepresents using @marianilaprofessional Fashion Assistant @afr_a Retoucher @larissaflorianipaul Special thanks to @prosper_pr #ODDAdigital

Congratulations to our friend, @lucienpages for joining @theindependentsgroup @lucienpagescommunication “I didn’t start with Public Relations (PR), I started my career in fashion. I studied fashion at a technical level at a very couture school, La Couture Parisienne, which now has fusion with Institut Français de la Mode (IFM). It was a very strict, professional and technical school. When I first came to Paris to do this, I went with the flow of proposals and opportunities and only discovered PR by chance. I never wanted to be a fashion PR-I didn’t even think it existed as a career. I wanted to live in Paris and I wanted to work in fashion and, if possible, have a successful career [laughs]. So I just followed my instinct, took opportunities and… voila!.” Photography by @felixdolmaillot Editor in Chief @davidmartingss Fashion @marcforne ODDA 24, 2023. #ODDAmagazine

The common thread that unites the realm of a Viking, a wrestler, a tribute, a tech-savvy, and a survivor of an apocalypse lies within @alexanderludwig. The actor’s talent lies in both portraying characters from different universes as well as being able to imprint a sense of vulnerability and power into each one. When remembering Cato’s ego in The Hunger Games, Bjorn’s heroic figure in Vikings, Ace Spade’s strength in Heels, and Ish’s melancholy in Earth Abides, it’s clear that each being had a deeper, humanizing aspect of themselves that Ludwig exquisitely expressed on screen. He does, and continues to shape his roles with sensitivity, navigating the craft of acting not only with passion but with purpose. As he steps into his most recent role in the post-apocalyptic series Earth Abides, he explores his most introspective and isolated side to date. We talked to Alexander about how he approaches masculinity in his roles, the challenges of embodying such different characters and scripts, and what makes him proudest of his 23-year-long career. “You always want to get better, but there’s never really a point where it’s like, ‘Oh, now I can relax.’ I do know that every trial and tribulation I’ve ever faced has led me to this moment. I have enough trust in the universe and in myself to know that things will work out the way they’re supposed to, and I’m just going to keep going. I always told myself when I was a kid, terrified that I wouldn’t be able to provide for myself, let alone a family, and wondering how the hell I could make a living doing this crazy job – I’d rather be 80 years old and jobless than let my 12-year-old self-down. That has carried me a long way, and I still carry it with me every day. ” In conversation with @carobenjumea_ Edited by @nnekanozie Photographer @foxhunter Fashion Editor @alexmariehansen Grooming @kmannmakeup at @tmgla Special thanks to @birchpublicrelations Discover more in the ODDA app #ODDAdigital

@sarasaliva may be a new face to some, but she’s been dedicated to the craft of acting from the start. Exposed and encouraged to try theatre and drama at a young age, Silva further pursued her career at UCLA through working on a variety of student projects and independent films, and had a breakthrough with her role in superhero drama The Boys. Now, she’s playing the beloved Cece Carroway in Prime Video’s adaptation of cult favorite Cruel Intentions, a film centering two stepsiblings’ enticing quest for status and power within their university. Though Cece is Caroline’s right hand woman and stands as her confidante amidst her tumultuous love triangle, she anticipates a relationship of her own, showing her affinity for risque behavior, power dynamics, and intellectual foreplay. In conversation with castmate-slash-bestie @khobeclarke, Sara discusses how she landed the role, the differences in her and Selma Blair’s take on Cece’s character, and how her personal projects have impacted her broader perspective on theatre and film. “I definitely felt like there was something pulling me towards this show… when I got [the audition,] they didn’t originally say, “Audition for this part.” They gave me the breakdown, like, “You choose.” For Cece, I remember reading the breakdown and there was this thing about her being very insecure in the pilot. I thought that they wouldn’t cast a conventionally attractive actress for Cece, but we went for it because [of] the other things I did connect to in certain ways.” - @sarasaliva Conversation curated by @nnekanozie Photographer @taylortgalloway Fashion Editor @arielsminer Makeup Artist @francieluxe using @hourglasscosmetics @thevisionariesagency Hair Stylist @luisapopovic @forwardartists Photographer Assistant @chenbant Special thanks to @viewpoint.pr Discover the full piece @cruelintentionsofficial in the ODDA app. Link in bio. #ODDAdigital
