15 Times Ansel Elgort Made A Clean Getaway In A Killer Outfit

Peacocking

The pinstripe suit was long overdue a shake-up from its cringe-inducing links with 1980s Gordon Gecko types. Elgort’s modernized take here replaces the traditional boxy fit with a slim double-breasted jacket and trousers with a minimal break at the hem. Rather than let the suit take centre stage, he’s gone one further and slid a patterned shirt underneath in a tonal color to tie it all together.

Suedehead

A suede jacket isn’t the most practical piece in a man’s wardrobe, but we’ll be damned if it isn’t the most covetable. It’s a timeless luxury item, and we’re particularly fond of Elgort’s midnight blue version with gold detailing. Dark blue and yellow is a combination capable of making canary birds sing, while a pair of black jeans is always an excellent base to build a look on.

Mr Elgort Will See You Now

Despite the numerous re-inventions of the suit, here’s proof that a classic style can still be used to devastating effect. Charcoal grey is more formal than lighter shades but not as stuffy as black, so is perfect as an ace up your sartorial sleeve when dressing to impress. Unless you’re just going to wear it for job interviews, opt for a medium weight wool cloth to give you the durability to repeatedly peacock in around the office.

Track Team Superstar

Elgort knows that any young style icon worth his salt needs to nail their sportier looks just as well as their tailoring. Here, a cropped jacket with racing stripes has the sporty side covered, while a smart, dark polo shirt, black jeans and Chelsea boots stops him from looking the part of the typical high school movie jock.

Baby It’s Cold Outside

The roll neck has been used as a tailoring game changer so much in recent years that we wonder whether it’s now just part of the game. Classic fine gauge knits like Elgort’s are the most formal and slip easily under a suit without distorting the jacket’s shape, which would make you appear bulky. Colour-wise, neutrals work best, so stock up on navy, black and grey for a failsafe selection to draw up your winter style battle plan.
