Benny Drama has amassed over a million followers on <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/mob-wife-aesthetic-trend-fashion-beauty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TikTok</a>, Twitter, and Instagram after gaining recognition for his celebrity impression sketches as <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/billie-eilish-music-style-evolution-happier-than-ever-album" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Billie Eilish</a>, Timoth&egrave;e Chalamet, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/kourtney-kardashian-gives-birth-baby-boy-travis-barker" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kourtney Kardashian</a>&mdash;even appearing on The Kardashians show in conversation with Kourtney&mdash;and more.
While you may know Skinner for his <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/meghan-markle-prince-harry-social-media-return-instagram" target="_blank" rel="noopener">social media</a> presence, his love of fashion is also a central aspect of his personality and career, and his appearance at the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/dior-spring-summer-2024-haute-couture-runway-photos" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dior</a> show this season was far from his first experience with the house. Previously, Skinner was a guest at the brand's Fall/Winter 2023 menswear show in <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/rick-owens-mens-fall-winter-2022-collection-photos" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Egypt</a> and sported Dior for several events, including the Queer As Folk&nbsp;premiere in 2022&mdash;a Peacock reboot of the iconic early 2000s show in which Skinner plays a supporting role. To ensure his impressions and sketches are as accurate as possible, Skinner hand-selects all of his pieces, ranging anywhere from <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/art/musee-des-arts-decoratifs-des-cheveux-des-poils-hair-exhibition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wigs</a> to designer clothing.&nbsp;
Explore a behind-the-scenes look at Skinner's day at the Dior Men's Fall/Winter 2024 <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/young-kate-moss-90s-style-runway" target="_blank" rel="noopener">runway</a> show through an exclusive <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/madelynn-furlong-hudson-dior-carousel-of-dreams-saks-photo-diary" target="_blank" rel="noopener">photo diary</a> and get to know a new side of the social media star.&nbsp;

L'OFFICIEL: What's your favorite part about Men's Fashion Week?
Benito Skinner: Ooo! I mean I love being in a little outfit and prancing around!&nbsp; 
L'O: What's your favorite thing to see/do when you're in Paris? Any go-to spots?
What if I said I go to the top of the Eiffel Tower every time I&rsquo;m here? I wish! I do always eat at Bonhomme. Heaven! And then I love Thanx God I&rsquo;m a V.I.P. for vintage. Also the name&hellip; fabulous.&nbsp;

L'O: How did you get into fashion? What makes it fun for you?
BS: I got into fashion when I was a kid growing up in Idaho. I was obsessed with swiping my sister&rsquo;s magazines and pretending I had crushes on the models when I really just wanted to look at the ad campaigns. Fashion was my first way of expressing just a little of who I really was. Mind you, this expression was with popped Abercrombie &amp; Fitch collars and bootcut Diesel jeans. Kinda major though! And I think just the fact that I&rsquo;m here is fun for me. I love going to shows and it feels very surreal for me to be at a show like Dior. Today is a fairytale! 
L'O: Do you have a morning ritual or a way to prepare for a day of fashion shows?
I use these Sofie Pavitt Nice Ice Toner Pods that are a miracle! And then I try to give myself some time to grab breakfast and a couple cappuccinos so I&rsquo;m nice and shaky!&nbsp;&nbsp;

L'O: How do you wind down after a long day of events?
I ask my boyfriend if I&rsquo;m ugly like five times and then we lay in bed and watch TikToks next to each other. Love!
 L'O: When you're deciding on your look for the day, do you have any essentials?
With Dior, it&rsquo;s very easy because they always let me pick and truly every look is perfect. For this one in particular I wanted to give some thigh and the jacket was a showstopper. A little chilly but worth it for fashion! I do always need a little purse though. Makes me feel powerful!

L'O: Tell me about your relationship with Dior. What about Dior Men speaks to you?
Dior really is a dream for me to work with. I think Kim Jones is a genius and the way he can weave the feminine structures from the past and bring that to the modern men&rsquo;s collections is so beautiful and special. Daddy Jones is in the zone right now! 
L'O: What were your thoughts on the show? Favorite looks?
This is similar to the last show in that I really want to wear so many of the looks. The couture was so so beautiful and unexpected. The black sequin and pearl jumpsuit was insane! And I NEEEEEED the flats.
