Fierce. Bold. Shamazing. These are just a few choice words to describe the personal style of Queer Eye's resident grooming guru [1], Jonathan Van Ness. The hairdresser and TV personality isn't afraid to rock bright colors, mixed prints, and sky-high heels, and we love him for it. Whether he's walking the red carpet [2], en route to a nighttime talk show, or hanging with the other four members of the Fab Five [3], JVN is always serving looks and emanating a confidence that's practically contagious.
To honor Jonathan's penchant for sock boots [4], eye-catching patterns, and can't-miss color combinations, we're breaking down the Queer Eye [5] star's best style moments to date. Keep reading to see all the times he's slayed in a truly one-of-a-kind outfit, and you'll certainly feel inspired to think outside the box the next time you're piecing together an ensemble [6]. Who gave Jonathan permission to dress this gorgeous, you ask? He did — that's who.
