Oscars: 2013 Black Tie Trumphs and Tragedies

[Journeyman]



Eddie Redmayne knocked it out of the park

Looked like he was wearing a pair of velvet slippers with his suit.

 

[Imhoff]



Nicholson looks like went blindfolded into a Goodwill and just started grabbing things.

It's Jack.

I really wanted to hear more from him than the first lady.

Is that Kiera Knightley..?

Wooster looks like more of a clown than usual. Wow.

 

[Veremund]

I can't believe NW gets a ticket to the Oscars. But seeing him there dressed like that...

 

[Willin]

I never realized this before but is Nick Wooster 4'11"?

 

[unbelragazzo]

He's short but not that short. Like 5'5"

 

[SharplyTailored]

Then he should not be having any trouble at all getting trousers of the correct length. What's the inside leg on those trousers in the picture? 16"?

 

[unbelragazzo]

Idk but I agree it looks terrible. He looks way worse than Tarantino IMHO.

 

[pfurey]

Wooster loves his ankles just a little too much.

Again, I know everyone here loves drawing parallels between their clothing and pomp or circumstance. However, you need to realize that there are some people who don't care or don't know, just like the rest of the world. Assuming that a celebrity would know better or care to learn makes assumptions based on their cultural position, which I initially said is a flawed view.

This is a very good point. I think it's important to remember that just by being on this forum, SFers care more about clothing than 95% of the male population. And while many celebrities would typically be more invested in their overall appearance, this isn't universal. Some (many) people just don't care, celebrity or otherwise.

Eddie Redmayne

I thought his tux looked good as well, and the velvet shoes were an interesting touch. I'm surprised that no one has flipped out about the inch of shirt visible under his button in that photo. Does that mean that he didn't go with a vest or cumberbund but still looked good?
