Here's How Timothée Chalamet Convinced Us His Boldest Red Carpet Looks Are, In Fact, Fashionable

It takes a certain kind of presence to pull off embroidered lapels, embellished bibs and hand-painted suits on the red carpet. One might say it’s impossible. But Timothée Chalamet does it all the damn time. (He does. Hear us out.)

How? It’s simple: The Beautiful Boy actor pairs his wacky menswear with sneakers. Whether it’s monochromatic red, intergalactic watercolor or powder blue with birds, Chalamet tones down his unconventional choices with casual footwear, thereby grounding the crazy. Behold:
