LaKeith Stanfield caught the attention of many people on Feb. 28 after he posted a picture on Instagram wearing a pair of black lace knee-highs.
The picture is a part of a series in his cover debut with Replica Man Magazine. In the picture, Stanfield is sitting next to a dresser with his arm resting on it. He’s dressed in a black shirt, black blazer and has his legs crossed as he’s looking away from the camera.

SO we are mad that Lakeith Stanfield had on lace socks for a photoshoot, yall would've hated black men fashion in the 70s.

Dunno why folks are freaked out by the recent photoshoot #LakeithStanfield posed in. As if Rick James, Prince, El DeBarge, The Isley Brothers, etc didn’t do the same thing 40+ years ago lol. Y’all are weird.

It looks like many people are supporting the look from Stanfield, while others are quite confused by it.
