ArianneUpdated on June 4, 2020June 4, 2020

Laura Harrier is enjoying a career that some girls can only dream of and envision in their minds. From starring in a Marvel film with Spiderman; working with an Oscar winning visionary on BlacKKKlansman; to being cast in a Netflix original. Harrier is having success… but still keeping her eyes WIDE open. This month, Laura Harrier Covers Porter Magazine and she talks about the truth in Hollywood; in front and behind the camera.

FASHION NOTES: In this edition of Porter, Laura also wears a plethora of designer ensembles. Just a few include looks by: Azzedine Alaia, Alexander McQueen, Loewe and Simone Rocha. Chic!

Laura Harrier Covers Porter Magazine-Chic and Beating the Hollywood Heat

Hollywood. It’s one interesting place. It’s the realm of the Golden Era of film; yet a landfill of unkind and sad mistreatment. The same home of glitz and glamour that had separate entrances and regulations for black actors and actresses. While some got to portray queens and ladies of leisure; others were unfortunately only in “heart-warming” stories of slaves, housemaids and hard up entertainers.

However, the industry has made some strides. Black actors and actresses have been able to be the Queens, heroes and intellectual (hi Hidden Figures) role models in various film roles. Yet, there is still more that can be done. Some of these roles are still far and in-between of what they can be. Representation is important for all; it’s what helps build confidence and inspiration in others.

In Porter Magazine, actress Laura Harrier dives into this subject matter. Regarding their story with Harrier, Porter Magazine states,

“From Spike Lee’s Oscar-winning ‘BlackKklansman’ to Ryan Murphy’s star-studded new show Hollywood; actor Laura Harrier is carving out an impressive career. She talks to Porter about swapping red carpets for Zoom calls. The strength in community; and the importance of representation in front of and behind the camera.

As one can see, there is much to be learned from those in the “trenches” of Hollywood. Hopefully, open discussion such as this one between Harrier and Porter will help change the movie and television status quo.

Jennifer Dickinson, the Digital Director of Net-A-Porter as well as Editor of PorterEdit had a few words on the newest edition as well. Regarding the issues she says,

“It’s our third annual Women in Television issue and it is truly the best yet. I was so thrilled that Annabel Brog and Olive Wakefield, managed to talk to these four INCREDIBLE women into appearing in our annual portfolio. And the photographs by Matthew Sprout with Alison Edmond and Gemma Stark; are more beautiful than even I could have asked for (and I always ask for the moon).

It was, as usual, a somewhat crazy day; but it was also, for me personally, a day when I was challenged; when I was found lacking; and when I was motivated to truly up my game. With Ellen Pompeo, Gina Rodriguez, Gabrielle Union and Emma Roberts as my Jimmy Crickets, I can’t fail. Watch read and be moved, folks. Incredible Women. Screen Queens.”
