Sadly, this week, the world lost a bright, young star in 25-year-old actor Angus Cloud [1]. Cloud was most known for his breakout role as Fezco (affectionately referred to as Fez) on HBO's smash hit "Euphoria [2]." So much of his allure was how he organically won over the hearts of millions of fans with his poetic eyes, smile, and charm on camera — and that energy was present off-camera as well. His laid-back persona made him extremely relatable, eventually leading to his emerging presence in fashion. From sitting front row at Coach to ambassadorships at Ralph Lauren and Puma, Cloud will forever be remembered as a style star.
The Oakland-born actor burst onto the scene alongside the "Euphoria [3]" phenomenon in 2019, becoming a fan favourite. And just like the show itself, which is now a style staple, Cloud became a part of the fashion conversation: magazine editorials, brand campaigns, and Fashion Week appearances [4] were piling up. Whether front row at Ami or Amiri, he never swayed from his signature aesthetic of polos, letterman jackets, skatewear, and workwear. Even sitting front row at Coach, Cloud was unapologetically himself, wearing a head-to-toe look from the brand and snacking on a bag of Flaming Hot Cheetos.
And while Cloud may have felt most comfortable in a pair of Air Forces and a polo shirt, make no mistake that his red carpet repertoire was just as stylish. From the black paisley slim-fit suit he wore to the 2022 Vanity Fair Oscar Party to the vibrant orange Versace suit he wore to the "Euphoria" Season 2 premiere, his effortless duality added to his fashion appeal. Cloud's brand of straightforward cool soon caught the eye of the sartorial king himself, Thom Browne [5], who enlisted Cloud to preview his special Autumn 2022 tartan collection.
