Let’s dissect some of the elegant outfits.
One of the first peeks at the costumes we saw was Chalamet in a navy sweater vest, worn over a wide-collared shirt and pleated wide-leg pants. Those structural trousers are currently all the rage in fashion (The Row had a killer pair this season). Paired with woven brown leather dress shoes and silver-framed glasses, it’s an incredibly chic look.
Ditto for Chalamet’s brown double-breasted suit, which was just oversized enough. (Baggy suiting happens to be another fashion trend as of late; this season, labels such as Bottega Veneta and Saint Laurent mastered the look.) Chalamet’s classic white shirt and sky-blue tie matched the color palette. It’s totally inspiring me to put in that extra effort this fall, and commit to suiting up at the office; The XXL-size makes it feel a little cooler and more nonchalant.
Chalamet’s most delicious ensemble yet, however, is the sophisticated black overcoat he wore with a shirt, tie, pleated dress pants, and a saucy little red leather glove. (Are you joking me with that little pop of color?) It’s somehow sexy. Ties, driving gloves, and briefcases may seem old-fashioned—like dusty 1950s staples—but Chalamet’s costumes make the case for reviving them in present tense. You can’t deny that smart, businessy aesthetic looks good. Feeling inspired by his movie wardrobe, maybe fall 2024 will be the season I whip my career and style into shape—or, at the very least, I can look the part.
