"Instead of a bow tie, he opted for a long necktie with his Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello tuxedo. It's the wrong move, according to the aforementioned rules. When wearing a tux, you should wear a bow tie. That's been burned into the men's fashion guidebook not just because of tradition and propriety but because it really does complement the outfit more effectively."
"He just wants to look cool. And he does. The wide-leg trousers. The chunky lapels. Even the "wrong" tie. Put together, it feels like he's channeling a different erathink the kind of late-'80s-to-mid-'90s power suits that made Richard Gere a sartorial icon. Throw in a big swing, grooming-wise, with the floppy, mullet-y mophe's usually got a tangle of curls going on up topand it all feels adventurous, a little offbeat, and, ultimately, fun."
Connor Storrie wore a Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello tuxedo to the Golden Globes paired with a long necktie instead of a bow tie. Traditional menswear rules prescribe a bow tie with a tux because it complements the outfit more effectively. The nontraditional necktie deviates from convention and likely cost a few positive points by those standards. The overall ensemble still succeeds through deliberate styling: wide-leg trousers, chunky lapels, and the 'wrong' tie combine to evoke late-1980s-to-mid-1990s power suiting associated with Richard Gere. The floppy, mullet-like grooming adds a playful, adventurous, offbeat energy that makes the look feel cool and fun.
