The 96th Academy Awards weren’t just about celebrating cinematic achievements; It was a night where fashion took center stage and men emerged as some of the biggest style stars of the night. Interestingly, all of the best-dressed men seemed to have found a common thread: Louis Vuitton.

Classic with a twist: Bradley Cooper

The always stylish Bradley Cooper opted for a custom Louis Vuitton double-breasted suit, but with a fun twist. The black jacket also featured unexpected turquoise buttons, adding a subtle pop of color. Flared pants, a crisp white shirt, and black derby shoes completed the look. He also sported a rose gold Tambour watch with a brown dial, adding a touch of luxury. This ensemble perfectly embodied Cooper’s signature style: classic and timeless with a touch of personality.

The bold and majestic Colman Domingo

Colman Domingo wasn’t afraid to make a statement and also chose a custom Louis Vuitton look. His double-breasted jacket was undeniably bold in black, adorned with sparkling gold crystal buttons that added a touch of regal style. Flared pants and a white shirt formed the base, while a monogrammed black bow tie and brooch completed the sophisticated look. Black and gold leather boots added another layer of texture and whimsy to the look.

Effortless Great at the After Party

The fashion show did not end with the ceremony. LeBron James made a powerful entrance at the Vanity Fair Oscar party, once again in Louis Vuitton. Opting for a more relaxed vibe, James sported a classic white double-breasted jacket paired with sleek black flared pants. To complete his look, he wore black square glasses that added a touch of intellectual cool. Overall, his choice was a masterclass in effortless style, proving that even casual elegance can make a difference.

Downey Jr.’s Dazzling Debut

Robert Downey Jr. was seen joining the Louis Vuitton party at the Vanity Fair after-party in a custom creation. He also sported a black “dandy” jacket, a style known for its shorter cut and fun personality. The jacket was further accentuated with satin lapels and contrasting pearl buttons, adding a touch of luxury to her ensemble. To complete his look, he paired the jacket with a white shirt, black flared pants, and sleek black leather boots. His wife, Susan Downey, accessorized his look with an elegant black V-neck knit dress. Together, this duo oozed Hollywood glamor with a touch of Downey Jr.’s signature whimsy.

Rising star, rising style

The night wasn’t just about established names. Rising star Teo Yoo announced her arrival on the fashion scene, also choosing a custom Louis Vuitton creation. He looked elegant in a classic navy blue double-breasted suit with black satin lapels, displaying a sophisticated yet youthful style.

The 96th Academy Awards proved that men no longer play second fiddle in the fashion department. This year, they embraced bold choices, classic elegance and a touch of personality, all thanks to Louis Vuitton’s masterful tailoring. The red carpet truly became a runway for these well-dressed gentlemen, showcasing their unique styles and setting the tone for an unforgettable night.
