The Most Stylish Films Of 2017
The sequel also does a good line in classic Americana-tinged outerwear. Think big shearling coats, denim jackets and even the odd Stetson.
The best outfit on show, and possibly the best in film this year, is Eggsy’s (Taron Egerton) orange velvet dinner jacket. It sounds revolting, but because it’s so well cut, and because everything else is simple, it works. High-street stores are much bolder with their formalwear offerings these days, so you’ll find something similarly daring without the bespoke price tag. Or you could just shop the Kingsman collection itself, of course, exclusively at Mr Porter.
Blade Runner 2049
Futuristic clothing is a tricky thing to get right. Often, trying to predict what people will be wearing decades from now leads to silver jumpsuits and angular items that look great when the wearer is standing up, but would be impossible to lounge in. The belated Blade Runner sequel used costumes that were forward-looking but not alien.
Much of it you could wear now – why would people reinvent the T-shirt in 30 years when it’s been perfect for the last century? – with the addition of a few more outlandish items.
Jared Leto’s tailoring had a nice glam undertaker vibe to it, but we’re particularly taken with the coat worn by K (Ryan Gosling). It’s leather and sheepskin (or something close to it) that looks like it’s been through several wars. It’s the kind of item that bought in real life would cost a fortune, but it’s also the kind of thing that, were you to invest in it, you would wear until 2049, at least.
Call Me By Your Name
Luca Guadagnino’s romantic drama is all set in the sort of long, sweltering summer we all distinctly remember happening when we were young, but never seems to occur any more. The clothes reflect that. Lots of loose-fitting button-down shirts, linen, laid-back Wayfarers and very short shorts.
