Street Style Star Leo Mandella Gives DJ Fat Tony His Ultimate Fashion Week Playlist

Sharing how he got his start and the secret to going viral, the Instagram star Leo Mandella aka Gully Guy Leo, shares his story, what it’s like having Tyler the Creator as a friend and fan, and the music behind it all. Leo may have had a quiet upbringing in the North of England, but he’s now one of the most recognisable influencers in fashion. Inspired by the buzz of London, Leo rose to internet fame after he began posting pictures of his outfits from his home in Warwickshire, amassing followers including streetwear heavyweights Virgil Abloh and Heron Preston. At just 15 years old, he was chosen by Converse to help re-launch the One Star trainer as the face of the campaign. Now, he can be found on the front rows of Fendi, Dior and Louis Vuitton at Paris Fashion Week and DJ’ing fashion week parties.
