Darren Criss joined many lovely ladies on the red carpet at The Hollywood Palladium, to honour Katy Perry at the ‘Trevor Live’ event in California on Sunday evening.
We are used to seeing men don a suit, but Darren decided upon an unexpected carpet look.
He wore an Emporio Armani Spring 2013 knit double-breasted navy jacket with gold buttons; styled with a light-blue shirt, grey pants and a maroon The Tie Bar tie.
Black patent leather Christian Louboutin ‘James loafers with a metal toe-cap and tassel details completed his look.
I love the this geek chic look. It almost has a back-to-school feel to it.

There is a bit too much of a school uniform feel to it, I’m afraid, not liking it.
Well he played a prep school student on Glee, so this look works. It makes sense on him.
Love it!!
It’s not too much of a departure from his Glee looks
Looks like a cardigan, not the best look..
Hahahaha, this is not a bad look, but it is exactly like his Glee school uniform!
I really like this look.
looks like a warbler
I feel like he could be in a scene from Glee here… but he still does look adorably cute! Love him.
+1.
I don’t mind the school look, as he’s looking so adorable!
not a huge fan but love the look.
he looks so preppy, i like it
I love this look.
He looks tres cute.
I unashamedly adore him but even if I objectively critiqued it I think he looks handsome in this preppy look.
He looks great in it, he looks “in character”.
I meant to say “but he looks in character” too in character
I’m not liking the geek chic look. It falls flat in comparison to some of the sleeker, more sophisticated looks we’ve been seeing.
Schoolboy vibe. I think it’s cute!
Thanks so much for the kind words! With this outfit, Darren and I really loved this navy double-breasted jacket – such a different approach with the knit and gold buttons. And as soon as I laid eyes on those Christian Louboutin loafers, I knew they would add the perfect touch to this outfit – gentleman chic.

Thank you…I will stalking your blog from now on.
Glad to hear
I’m always on your site xoxo
I think this is very Darren and he looks handsome! I like that he didn’t go for a traditional suit.
awwwwwwww he so looks like a wobbler
He looks like he is in his Dalton blazer, but I’m not complaining.
