The October 2026 issue of COVERED. by KLS moves through fashion, music, culture and community with a focus on the people and moments shaping the conversation now. From the contrasting worlds of Art Hearts Fashion and Runway 7 during New York Fashion Week to the international energy of DC Fashion Week, the issue captures fashion in motion before turning to music with Wu-Tang Clan and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Daley, Keith D. Robinson and the return of the Soul Train Awards. Culture and community expand the story through All the Queen’s Men, the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, 100 Women of Excellence, Black cowboy legacy, BGV Homecoming, Baltimore’s Black Wall Street Expo and Associated Black Charities, creating an issue centered on legacy, visibility, creativity and the power of showing up.
