Red Carpet Style: All Our Favorite Menswear Looks

From The Emmys, Golden Globes & Critic’s Choice

We are just two weeks into the new year and it seems that Brian’s wish of “not trend chasing” in 2024 is already coming to fruition.

Between the Golden Globes, Critic’s Choice Awards and the Emmys, the red carpet has been surprisingly diverse with a tone of playfulness and creativity among men (and some women) that seem to be looking to expand beyond the traditional tuxedo attire.

As much as I enjoy manifesting Joan Rivers’s snarky spirit for my red carpet takes on Instagram Stories during the shows themselves, this spotlight is not about critiquing who did it right or wrong, rather to applaud the men of Hollywood for breaking out of the box.

The last few awards seasons up until now have been pretty expected and showcased overly safe looks from both men and women, so this shift is not only seismic, but extremely appreciated. But since this is HSS, after all, we’ll kick things off with some of our favorite classic looks.

Classic

Okay, I know I said this wasn’t a take on who did it right or wrong, but I do want to acknowledge the men that wore a more traditional look. Not just because they looked effortlessly handsome, but because the fit was tailored to perfection. Which, as we know, most men that are styled for these carpets do not have the same fate.

Non-Traditional

We don’t typically see so many men experimenting with color and are really enjoying the rich hues on display here.

Men have been accessorizing for the last few award seasons, but something about jewelry with a monochromatic look, or an unexpected collar that feels like a perfect juxtaposition.

Men have also been exploring an open neckline — Cillian and Jeremy with just one open button, and Jonathan, Ryan and Lenny showing much more. Which, I personally do not mind.

Women In Menswear

It feels appropriate since men are inspired to take more risks, that (a lot of) women have been inspired by the boys and playing around with menswear pieces.
