Vine star turned worldwide mega-sensation, Shawn Mendes, stars in the Summer 2018 issue of Wonderland. The 20-year old Canada native speaks of fame, fans, and his struggles with anxiety, in an in-depth editorial courtesy of interviewer and author, Lily Walker. Photographed by Paul Scala, the stunning set of photos features Mendes in the stylings of Tommy Hilfiger, Anthony Vaccarello, Sunspel, and Saint Laurent.

It was “sometime last year or the year before” when he first started tackling his anxiety by confronting it in his music. “Sometimes it’s not about seeking help and getting a therapist,” he reasons. “The hardest thing to do is accept what’s going on and the human mind has this funny thing where if you acknowledge that something is wrong, sometimes it works towards helping you instead of going against you. Just talking to friends and family and talking to people, becoming more open and vulnerable with everything that’s going on in my life, it’s really hard at first, and with the public it’s hard at first, but ultimately it made things easier for me.”
