We Saw It Coming
In a true L’Officiel Philippines’ fashion, the publication hinted at the scoop days in advance. On June 4, they took their social media accounts to share a blurry video of Mark with the caption “Mark your calendars.” A few days later, they posted another video of the K-pop idol with a witty caption accompanying it. “Got an eye on our cover star?” they asked. Finally, on June 11, the magazine revealed the cover of their summer number, “The Borderless Beauty issue,” fronted by Mark and Winnie Harlow.Premiering a first Beauty Edition, the magazine’s Editor-In-Chief explained that L’Officiel Philippines would be featuring “inspiring stories that break all types of norms in fashion, in the world.“ A goal that seems accomplished already just by looking at the cover stars.View this post on Instagram
Mark’s Ready For The Season
Modeling the latest trends in menswear for this season and styled by Danyl Geneciran, Mark was introduced as a “global citizen.” In the editorial lensed by Emman Montalvan, the GOT7 member dashed in looks taken straight from the Spring/Summer 2021 runways of Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Dior. Additionally, L’Officiel Philippines gave us a preview of Mark’s interview, where the star shared the struggles of keeping a long-distance friendship with the members of his group. “The hardest part for me is I’ll wake up, and I’ll look at my phone and there will be like 100 text messages from [the members], and then I’ll reply, and they’re all sleeping,” he said.On the other hand, Winnie Harlow opened up about what beauty means to her, her new skincare line—that is set to be available next year—and tips on maintaining relationships.View this post on Instagram

Though this is the first time these two superstars worked together, they had already met back in 2019. Attending the Ermenegildo Zegna show during the Milano fashion week, they posed for the cameras with Mark’s bandmate, Bambam. Winnie later left a comment on Bambam’s Instagram post. “Nice to meet you guys today xx,” she wrote back then.210611 Winnie Harlow shares a photo with Mark and Bambam on IG story
