Winston Duke Instagram – My people, it is my distinct pleasure to share this @esquire cover with you guys! My FIRST with them.
It has always been a dream of mine to grace the cover of especially esquire magazine!
Growing up, being an esquire man was the epitome of style and masculine refinement. Dramatic, yet assured … being able to see myself on this is literally a dream come true!
I dedicate this to my mom @joyce.coco56 whose love, guidance & prayers sowed the seeds. Though she isn’t here to see her son grow to this today … I love you and thank you for raising me to have dream, style and vision. Thank you for raising an @esquire man! I’m going to make you so proud, as you look down on me, my love!
Thankyou to @randipeck for your generousity and endless support for this cover! Thank you to @rw3ll for your vision and care. Special thanks to the @hunterh for writing this beautiful and honorable piece honoring my mom and our story. Thank you!!
Big shout out & thank you to @andrewmukamal and his team and a rowdy thank you to @alfonsofn’s support for the styling of this cover.
Heartfelt thank you to the incredible photographers @abdmstudio for their work with these visuals!
Also, a hearty thank you to my incredible team for making this happen. The architect @mariannashafran; Along with my groomer @risharox and my incredible barber @goosethebarber | Posted on 14/Nov/2022 21:31:35
