Earlier this year, Timothée Chalamet was spotted filming his upcoming Bob Dylan biopic while wearing the singer’s signature lived-in leather jackets and western boots. But now, the actor is onto his next big Hollywood project—and he has a whole new character wardrobe to go with it. This week, Chalamet has been sighted around New York City shooting Marty Supreme , an upcoming Josh Safdie film in which the star portrays a 1950's table tennis player.
I simply can’t look away from his impeccable, slick, retro-chic suits; they're my fall fashion inspiration. The spiffy, buttoned-up looks that Chalamet wears while in-character are a drastic departure from his off-duty, personal style. And in many ways, they’re new territory for me, too.
The film’s costumes are all about nailing the rigid tailoring of the 1950s, when men wore three-piece suits to, say, run an errand or go to the post office. While the costumes reference a bygone era of dressiness, the high-waisted pleated pants, roomy blazer jackets, navy sweater vests, and wide-collared dress shirts feel extremely current—especially as brands like Phoebe Philo and The Row keep that slouchy, casual tailoring alive. 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 wov.
