‘Ebenezer’ London Premiere Menswear
The Ebenezer premiere delivered an interesting mix of menswear, from ivory tailoring and velvet suits to leather jackets and oversized silhouettes. Some embraced the festive setting, while others took a less conventional approach.
The Orchid Effect
Sam Claflin wore a Tom Ford by Haider Ackermann look that was easily one of my favourites of the night. The white-on-white polka-dot double-breasted jacket was the highlight, with the small details really elevating the tailoring, particularly the orchid boutonnière, which seems to be having a moment after Andrew Garfield wore one to the LACMA Gala over the weekend.
Velvet Season
Tramell Tillman’s black Armani velvet double-breasted suit feels just right for the season. The printed scarf adds to the charm of it all, preventing the look from feeling one-note.
A Boucheron Quatre Black Edition diamond ring and a Jaeger-LeCoultre watch completed his look.
Styled by Chaise M. Dennis.
Did He Arrive on Horseback?
My first question is: did Robert Strange arrive on horseback? Because those Maison Margiela boots certainly suggest it. Joking aside, I actually like the direction of this Feng Chen Wang tailoring, but I think it would have worked better with an ankle-length leather coat instead of the cropped jacket.
That would have made the proportions more convincing, especially with those boots.

Ivory From Head To Toe
Henry Lloyd-Hughes deserves a round of applause for reminding us that men’s shoes come in neutral colours. Too often, we see actors ruin a beautiful light-coloured suit with black shoes, so I’m celebrating this moment.
The ivory textured tailoring is gorgeous, but it’s the satin top that really sells it to me, giving the look an ’80s-inspired romantic feel. Love this from head to toe.
Johnny Being Johnny
And finally, the man of the hour, Johnny Depp, who was, of course, wearing Dior.
The fedora, tinted sunglasses and relaxed tailoring are all familiar territory, but what surprised me most was the jewellery, or lack thereof. Johnny is wearing considerably fewer rings and accessories than usual. For someone who typically piles them on, this almost feels like a minimalist moment.
