From Birdcage Veils to Lemon Suits, the 2025 Oscars’ Best-Dressed Men Had Fun
The 2025 Oscars red carpet was less about playing it safe and more about men dressing like they had something to say—some whispered, some shouted, but all of them made us look
Somewhere between a fever dream and a fashion thesis, the 2025 Oscars red carpet gave us everything: sensual tailoring, risk-taking silhouettes, and a masterclass in not taking yourself too seriously.
It was about the drama—the unspoken dialogue between fabric and movement and the subtext of a well-placed accessory.
Here’s who did it best.
Adrien Brody
He didn’t just take home the Best Actor Oscar for The Brutalist—Adrien also served one of the most impeccably cut Giorgio Armani suits we’ve seen in years.
Classic? Sure. But classic done right.
The lapels hit that sweet spot between modern and old-school Hollywood, and the midnight black fabric absorbed the light just enough to make him look even more statuesque.
A masterclass in restraint. A lesson in knowing when not to try too hard.
Timothée Chalamet
And just like that, Timothée said color is back, you’re welcome.
His buttery lemon Givenchy suit, paired with jeans (because of course), felt like a callback to his chaotic-yet-charming red carpet history.
It was playful, borderline absurd, but somehow still worked because, well, it’s Timothée.
We’ll be thinking about this one for a while.
Andrew Garfield
Wearing a silk espresso brown Gucci suit, Andrew arrived looking like the embodiment of a perfectly crafted oat milk latte—smooth, rich, and completely addictive.
The relaxed drape of the suit, just slouchy enough to suggest nonchalance but tailored enough to whisper to make for an effortless statement.
Colman Domingo
Colman doesn’t do subtle, and why should he? A red wrap-style Valentino jacket with contrasting black lapels? Say less.
The stacked bracelets, the brooch, the shades—it was giving leading man but also poet at a jazz bar who might break your heart just to write about it later.
He looked like he walked out of a 1970s editorial shoot and into the Dolby Theatre, and frankly, we’re obsessed.
Jeremy Strong
Jeremy might have left Kendall Roy behind, but his fashion choices still read as a man who appreciates a well-made suit.
His silky Loro Piana number felt like the kind of thing Kendall wishes he could’ve worn in those final and devastating episodes—powerful but understated, luxurious but devoid of desperation.
It was quiet luxury in the least way possible: actual quality, not just the aesthetic of it.
Mark Eydelshteyn
It was a big night for Anora, which took home Best Picture, and its star Mark made sure to dress like a man whose film just changed the game.

Balenciaga suited him—quite literally. Sharp but slightly offbeat, the silhouette felt sculptural in a way that made you want to stare a little longer.
The kind of suit that makes you wonder if he’s about to say something profound or just devastatingly blunt. Either way, you’ll listen.
Omar Apollo
If anyone was going to make menswear feel romantic again, it was Omar.
His black Valentino suit—designed by Alessandro Michele, no less—was pure sensuality.
A polka-dot shirt, a scarf-as-tie, Mary Jane shoes, and a birdcage veil.
It was like a 1970s rockstar and a high-fashion widow had a lovechild, and we mean that in the best way.
Final thoughts
This best-dressed list was about who felt good in what they wore.
A well-tailored suit can make a man look powerful, but the right one makes him look like he belongs in it. And tonight? These men belonged.
