Billy Porter says Anna Wintour asked him how Vogue could ‘do better’ with diversity months before Harry Styles dress cover controversy

Billy Porter is not over Vogue’s decision to make Harry Styles the first man to wear a dress on the cover of its magazine. 

After Vogue published its December 2020 issue, which featured Styles wearing a lace dress on the cover, Porter spoke out about how he felt that his own influence was behind the trend of men embracing clothing typically worn by women.

In an interview with The Sunday Times, Porter said that he “created the conversation” around gender-fluid fashion and criticized Vogue’s decision to make Styles, “a straight white man,” the first to wear a dress on the cover. Though Porter went onto publicly apologize to Styles, it seems he still has an issue with the cover.
