    For the second episode of Lookbook, we sat down with Esquire's latest cover star, Paul Mescal, to talk about his best looks both on and off screen.
    The 'Aftersun' star opens up about how a certain accessory took on a life of its own following the success of 'Normal People'. He also discusses his favourite red carpet outfits and talks about preparing for Ridley Scott's epic.

      I disagree. I think it badly hides his receding hairline and actually draws attention to it.

    Such insightful and thoughtful answers. I always appreciate listening to him tell his story. It’s admirable how much care he gives to what he does, wears, & says.

    Those actors he is talking about had lived a life and had an edge and mystery to them. It was pre internet and social media and they were not the clcik of a button away promoting an enrgy drink or taking anout their favourite sneakers.

    The absolute emptiness of all of these words and the utter insignificance that they have in the real world is like talking to a 12 year old. Speaking with him must be a chore. There is no real lived experience that he has to speak of.
