Given his outfit, it wouldn't have been surprising if Timothée Chalamet [1] had pulled up to the Oscars afterparty on a motorcycle. After attending the memorable award show [2] on March 27 in a shirtless suit [3], the "Dune" star changed into a matching Alexander McQueen biker jacket and jeans for Vanity Fair's annual party. Featuring denim paneling and zipper accents, the leather set made for a sharp entrance and was appropriately paired with equally edgy biker boots.
With this look, Chalamet cosigns the motorcycle-gear trend [4], which has been spotted on the fall 2022 runways from the designers behind Dior, Balmain, and Blumarine. As the actor demonstrated, the uniform is no longer reserved for motorcycle rides; it can serve as elevated evening attire.
This wasn't the only occasion where Chalamet made a statement in Alexander McQueen. In fact, he has worn the designer on a number of occasions [5], including during his "Beautiful Boy" press tour in 2018, which included various floral suits by the brand. The two-piece set was a departure from his headline-making Louis Vuitton look [6] earlier in the evening, which consisted of a sequin tuxedo jacket and trousers. The shirtless [7] outfit recalled the sequin harness, also by Louis Vuitton, worn by Chalamet to the 2019 Golden Globes [8].
Both the award show and its afterparties were rife with style inspiration. Chalamet's "Dune" costar Zendaya [9] wore Sharon Stone-inspired separates by Valentino [10] on the Oscars red carpet; she then attended the afterparty in an hourglass Sportmax suit with a purple button-down [11]. Lori Harvey [12] was another statement-maker, wearing a sculptural Tony Ward dress [13] as she and Michael B. Jordan made their red carpet debut [14].
Take a closer look at Chalamet's latest style moment ahead.
