15 Reasons Why Jeff Goldblum Is The Best-Dressed Dandy In Hollywood

Jeff Goldblum has been Hollywood’s resident dandy for the best part of 30 years, a role he plays with mumbling, purring, subtle and not so subtle sexual aplomb. From the open black shirt and bare naked torso from Jurassic Park to the white linen suit and raffishly draped pink scarf in The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Goldblum has played some damn stylish men through his movie career.

But it’s his own style that really revs his fandom (mostly middle aged women, go figure) into a sweat, as well as the fact that trying to find anyone who has a bad word to say about him is harder than trying to get him to stop smiling.

The Look

Saint Laurent is a favourite, the luxury French fashion house with a timeless chic that fits the 65-year-old’s super cool persona down to an exquisitely fitted polo tee. Over the top, you’ll see him in a leather jacket, matched with a fedora hat and some foppish Oxford shoes. The actor is also a jazz pianist and Goldblum clearly has affection for that beatnik look championed by the genre’s greats in the 1950s.

This is perhaps where his fondness for turtlenecks comes into play, worn under a leather (again), denim or suede jacket (Goldblum likes a cool jacket). His tailored looks are slim and trim, ties are usually skinny and his trousers tapered and cropped, expertly crafted to fit his gangly 6’4? frame.

Best Foot Forward

Jazzy Jeff looks as sharp as a razor in this slim tailored get-up. When standing up the rule is usually to keep your suit jacket buttoned up, but by letting the jacket fly open Goldblum lets his crisp white shirt contrast with the all-black suit and allows people to see the coordinated perfection he has going on with the dainty brogues on his feet. A white shirt also offers a blank canvas allowing Goldblum to easily plump for a preppy stripe in a less traditional skinny shape.
