There were plenty of suited and booted gents who took to the red carpet for the 2022 Cannes Film Festival opening ceremony on Tuesday (May 17) in France.
Baptiste Giabiconi finally gave me the answer to my question, can a man successfully pull off white shoes with a white suit?
The answer is a clear yes. But I think the style of boots is incredibly important.
The French model looked super sleek in his off-white wool peak lapel Dior by Kim Jones tuxedo which I’m not getting waiter vibes from.
Un Certain Regard Jury Member, Édgar Ramírez looked impossibly handsome last night.
Yes, I couldn’t imagine wearing a velvet suit right now, but the cut of this Gucci black velvet is beautiful.
The only thing I would change here are the shoes. No embellishment would have been cleaner.
I was memorized by the texture of Yassine Azzouz’s Aux Corps Anonymes dinner jacket.
He completed his look with a Holgar timepiece.
When I saw Rahi Chadda wearing this #BlackEdition Valentino Fall 2022 Pink PP collection suit, I wished that he had left the jacket unbuttoned.
While the suit is beautifully detailed with 3D appliques, I’m curious about the embellished shirt which lays beneath.
Ladj Ly, who also sits on the jury for this festival kept things classic and cool in Dior by Kim Jones.
I’ve never been able to resist the elegance of a shawl collar tuxedo.
French-British actor Finnegan Oldfield rocked a classic Fendi Men’s suit for his premiere.
These are the shoes Edgar Ramirez should’ve also worn.
