2026 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Menswear
Here is a final look at the menswear moments from the 2026 Vanity Fair Oscar Party, where classic tailoring met just enough personality to keep things interesting.
Rockstar Tailoring, Dialled In
With his starring role in The Beatles film on the horizon, Barry Keoghan is clearly leaning into a rock-and-roll royalty phase. His McQueen suit delivered that energy through sharp, narrow tailoring, while the embroidered jacket, framed by those exaggerated lapels, added a touch of theatricality.
Flair Is Always Guaranteed
When you need flair on the red carpet, Colman Domingo is always that man. This Jacquemus suit had a relaxed confidence through the pinstripe tailoring, but it was the styling that sealed it. The oversized floral pocket square detail paired with the Boucheron brooch gave the look a focal point that was both playful and precise. He understands exactly how to make tailoring feel alive.
Old Hollywood, With a Twist
Matt Bomer served up his signature old-Hollywood elegance in Brioni, but the deep raspberry jacket ensured he stood out. The satin finish caught the light beautifully, giving the look depth against the classic black trousers and bow tie. Styled with a Tag Heuer timepiece, this was refinement personified.
Winning Look, Minor Quibble
Fresh from a well-deserved win, Michael B. Jordan stepped out in Tom Ford by Haider Ackermann. The rich chocolate-brown suit was a standout, especially paired with the cluster of brooches which added interest without overcomplicating things. My only hesitation is the black tie.
Ambassador Energy
Nicholas Hoult, back to being blonde delivered a look that balanced precision with subtle detail. The crisp white shirt and tie, finished with Prada’s signature plaque, kept things clean, while a Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso timepiece added a final layer of polish.
Classic Done Right
Paul Anthony Kelly wore custom Brunello Cucinelli, and this is exactly how understated elegance should read. The velvet double-breasted jacket brought texture, while the clean lines of the tailoring kept everything sharp. Nothing forced, nothing overworked, just solid, confident dressing.
Ribbon Tie, Still Going Strong
Paul Mescal returned to Celine for the after-party, continuing his ongoing relationship with the house with his commitment to the ribbon tie that continues to define his red-carpet identity. At this point, it’s a signature.
Effortless Formality
Regé-Jean Page in Brunello Cucinelli kept things classic with a twist, opting for a deep burgundy tuxedo jacket with black satin lapels. The rich tone gave the look just enough presence without straying too far from tradition.
Undone, But Not Quite There
Troye Sivan went for an undone approach in Tom Ford. The open shirt and relaxed styling could have worked, but those trousers are where it falls apart.
