‘Wild Horse Nine’ Premiere Menswear at the Venice Film Festival

Here’s a roundup of the men who joined John Malkovich on the red carpet for the Wild Horse Nine premiere during the Venice Film Festival last night. With Zegna dressing three of the four men, there was a clear house presence, but each look landed differently.

Chocolate Season

Seeing Orlando Bloom in this Zegna dark brown tuxedo reminds me how much I have missed brown tailoring. With summer drawing to a close, the colour already feels right for the months ahead, while the floral brooch give the classic tuxedo a little more personality. I also like the wider trousers here, especially with the strong satin lapels balancing out the proportions.

Tonal Shift

Then I saw Domhnall Gleeson, also in Zegna, opting for a dark brown tuxedo, and it is amazing how the tonal approach and narrower trousers give his look a completely different character from Orlando’s. I love how sleek this feels from head to toe.

Modern Minimalism

I usually look out for actors and actresses on the red carpet, but director Martin McDonagh instantly caught my attention in this clean and simple Celine all-black suit. Despite all the traditional elements, the tailoring presents a modern silhouette. This is easily one of my favourite menswear looks from the festival so far.

Relaxed Black Tie

Sam Rockwell took a more relaxed approach to his tailoring in Zegna, pairing his double-breasted black suit with an open-collar white shirt, sunglasses and a brooch.
