The KT look?
*Shoot in natural light.
*Use only agency models that can emote.
*Have them flip their hair and make faces like they are either having an orgasm or menstrual cramps.
*Convert to B&W.
*Add some local contrast (clarity slider in Lightroom).
*Lower gamma in levels.
*Tweak to taste.
KT's 'look' is primarily the models he shoots and the way he shoots them.
The rest is pretty well described above.

All these 'How to get ( insert name) look', never work even if you assist these photographers you'd still struggle to achieve it.
+1000 to both these statements.
People really need to step back and realise that while PS is a very useful tool, the fundamentals of a particular photographer's work are almost never reproducible, either via PS or even by attending their workshops.
Everybody sees the world differently and that's what comes through in their photos and really defines their style, not what camera they use, where they put a light, or which LR preset they use to develop a RAW file.
