Timothée Chalamet is one of the most fashion-savvy men of our time. With his love for sharp tailoring, bright block colours, and black stomper boots, Chalamet’s bold approach to fashion has redefined formalwear for the modern generation.
As one of Hollywood’s most dedicated fashion enthusiasts, Timothée has stimulated memorable collaborations and created deep relationships with brands like Haider Ackermann, Alexander McQueen, and Off-White. Despite being one of the few celebrities to not have a stylist, the superstar has successfully discovered his signature sartorial style.
His rise to style-centric royalty has seen him grab the spotlight on the red carpet in playful versions of suits and on the streets in his casual off-duty sweats. He can just as easily wear all the Stella McCartneys, Saint Laurents and Tom Fords as well as a pair of trainers and Adidas track pants.
Read on to learn how to emulate Timothée Chalamet’s signature style.
It’s all in the cut
Chalamet always delivers on the red carpet. Menswear’s most effortless champion, he continues to blur the lines of fashion’s traditional gender divide, often choosing slim, soft tailoring over traditionally solid cuts. The Dune actor experiments with the conventions of formal dressing, borrowing elements from womenswear while maintaining a distinct menswear look. One of his most memorable outfits at the 2019 Venice Film Festival consisted of a perfectly tailored satin suit with a panel attached to the blazer and cinched with a waistband.
Comfort is key
The clothes that Chalamet wears away from the red carpets are all the more impressive. As much an enthusiast of formal fashion, Timothée Chalamet has perfected downtime dressing. His signature off-duty style move includes tucked-in sweatpants and oversized Louis Vuitton hoodies. His street style consists of everything from embroidered joggers and chambray shirts to combat boots and a checkered shirt combination with pink sneakers.
Pops of colour
Go hell for pink! While most young male celebrities choose to don a traditional black tuxedo on the red carpet, Chalamet goes the extra mile with pops of bright hues. Pictured below, he makes a strong case for Fuschia in this louche three-piece by Stella McCartney. Styled with studded leather cowboy boots and topped with silver jewellery, the simple look is elevated through a burst of colour.
Call me by your chain
Timmy has been accessorising with gold and silver since his first Call Me By Your Name 2017 press cycle. If you’ve been style-stalking Chalamet for a while now, you’ve probably noticed that he loves wearing a gold chain. The star proves that a simple piece of jewellery can pull any look together.
Flower power
Like fellow experimental style-icon Harry Styles, Timothée Chalamet gives floral suits a whole new meaning. One of his most iconic looks sees him sporting a romantic floral two-piece by Alexander McQueen and black leather Chelsea boots.
Sneakers Galore
It’s no secret that Timmy loves his kicks. His sneaker rotation, which includes silhouettes such as the dove-grey 997s, the chunky-heeled Stella McCartney Eclypse and the Gucci Ultrapace, is low-key yet tasteful.
