As the year comes to a close, one name continues to climb the charts: Jeremy O. Harris. The playwright, screenwriter, Gucci muse, actor, and according to Out magazine, “the queer Black saviour the theatre world needs,” is, well, everywhere: gracing magazine covers like Garage (shot by Roe Ethridge) and M le mag (shot by Petra Collins), in bylines (having interviewed both Rihanna and Megan Thee Stallion), spending BFF time with Mel Ottenberg and Hari Nef (who starred in Harris’ off Broadway drama, Daddy), on Twitter @ing everyone from Natasha Lyonne, to critics, to audience members desperate for last-minute tickets to Slave Play, his Broadway sensation. But Harris is more than just a theatre world superstar—his brilliance is tethered to his deep sense of style (beyond fashion: style as in how magnetic Harris is, but also style as in how his work resounds with audiences who might not have ever felt seen or invited to partake in Broadway’s spectacle). Harris has altered Broadway forever. But let’s talk fashion too. Because one cannot celebrate Harris’ impact and truly wondrous appeal without declaring him this year’s unwavering and completely inspiring fashion darling. What designer hasn’t he worn head-to-toe? Gucci. Telfar. Bode. Givenchy. And of course, Thom Browne. Harris’ catalogue of Thom Browne suiting warrants its own coffee table book or cool zine we could totally imagine the brand handing out at their next show. But nothing synthesizes the whole Harris/Browne 2019 whirlwind like that one image of the theatre luminary tech-ing his own Broadway show wearing a full Thom Browne: a skirt suit straight off the runway. This moment, and his accompanying tweet: “teching the feminization of the Black male ur preacher warned u abt” is the only energy we hope to carry into a new, likely equally doomed (with moments of pure mirth, sure) decade. In conclusion: there is no one whose rise is more splashy, historic, stylish, beautiful, ubiquitous than Jeremy O. Harris (keep an eye out for Zola, the heavily hyped movie he co-wrote with director Janicza Bravo premiering in competition at Sundance). As Christopher Glazek prophesied in Artforum’s December 2019 issue, Harris is “unquestionably destined, as some in the industry have joked, to sign the first billion-dollar Netflix deal."
