It’s been a week packed with high-profile events, showcasing some of the most stylish red carpet moments from our favorite celebrities. From the Essence Black Women in Hollywood ceremony and the Brit Awards in London to the star-studded Academy Awards, actors and musicians pushed the boundaries of fashion, delivering looks that were both bold and timeless. Whether through classic tailoring or custom avant-garde designs, these men proved why they are modern style icons. Here’s a look at the standout moments from last week that had everyone talking.
The Looks
Jacob Latimore brought effortless sophistication to the Essence Black Women in Hollywood event, donning a Brandon Murphy Studio satin blush pink double-breasted suit. The soft yet striking hue made a statement, while the impeccable tailoring accentuated his sharp silhouette. Adding a modern edge to the classic look, he paired the suit with Celine platform glossy loafers, blending sleek sophistication with contemporary flair. Keeping accessories minimal, Latimore chose a simple tennis necklace, allowing the suit to remain the undisputed centerpiece of his refined red carpet moment.
Meanwhile, John Legend made a statement at the Global Citizen Festival Move Afrika in Lagos, Nigeria, showcasing his signature style with a custom green hand-woven suit and coat by Eleven Sixteen by Ugo Mozie. The outfit paid homage to the host country, featuring traditional cowrie detailing—a meaningful nod to African heritage and culture. Keeping the focus on the intricate craftsmanship of the suit, Legend opted for classic black loafers, grounding the look with understated elegance. His ensemble perfectly balanced cultural pride and contemporary fashion, embodying the spirit of the festival with both style and substance.
Colman Domingo delivered a masterclass in refined elegance at the 97th Academy Awards, proving once again why he’s a red carpet standout. The nominated actor donned a custom Valentino suit, making a bold statement with a striking red blazer layered over a matching red button-down shirt—a monochromatic look that exuded confidence and sophistication. To balance the vibrancy of his upper half, he paired the ensemble with classic black dress pants, creating a seamless contrast. Elevating the look further, Colman accessorized with gold Boucheron jewelry and an Omega watch, adding just the right amount of luxury and polish to his already impeccable outfit.
