Fame of Stranger Things Finn Wolfhard attributes his evolution in personal style to his Saint Laurent campaign. To learn more, keep reading.
Fame of Stranger Things Finn Wolfhard claims that his Saint Laurent campaign helped him develop his own sense of fashion.
The ‘Stranger Things’ actor, who has portrayed Mike Wheeler on the popular sci-fi series on Netflix since he was 12 years old, confessed he “didn’t really know anything about designer clothes” before his first fashion campaign in 2019 when he was 16 years old. Now that I know I enjoy black pinstripe suits, I was like, “Oh, okay.”
“After that shoot, I was definitely more aware of the history behind the brand, and I think it helped me with my style,” remarked Finn Wolfhard.
He is also making comparable discoveries in the beauty industry, working with YSL Beauty to serve as one of the brand’s “voices” for their MSYLF men’s fragrance.
“Growing up, obviously when you’re just a guy in high school, there’s not really much fragrance going on,” remembered Finn Wolfhard. Lots of AXE body spray is present.
Though he still favors a minimal makeup look, he has evolved into a “subtle wearer” in recent years.
What’s fantastic about YSL and the scent, he said, is that it is slightly breaking the stereotypical macho stereotype. I think I’m doing something creative.
The 20-year-old actor finds solace in the way YSL embraces simplicity, though.
The IT actor said, “When someone has a subtle fragrance on, it almost makes me feel comfortable, and I think there’s an overall cool factor when someone’s wearing a good smell.”
Scents do have a nostalgic undertone, but Finn Wolfhard hasn’t fully embraced using beauty items as an acting technique to explore his characters.
