Eddie Redmayne – Looking Tres Chic

There are number of celebrities that are always center stage for their iconic contributions to menswear fashion. Then there are those actors who seem to come out of nowhere to impress and dazzle us with their authentic approach towards style and fashion. Eddie Redmayne is one of those magical cases, where he appeared out of nowhere and is now considered one of the best dressed gentlemen at the 2013 Golden Globes along the likes of Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman. Anyone who watched the 2013 Golden Globe Awards likely noticed that the Les Miserable star Eddie Redmayne looked -sensational. Redmayne may not be a household name at this point, but it’s fair to say that he’s on the fast track to becoming one of the World’s best dressed stars. Here are just a few things that set Redmayne apart.

Velvet Dinner Jacket
Not everyone can pull off a velvet dinner jacket. Few will look sensational and most will look ridiculous. Eddie Redmayne is one of the few and in making this brazen decision looked like a shining star with out of this world style! Redmayne’s jacket was designed by Hugo Boss and featured slim lapels with a single-button enclosure. The slim-fit tailoring stood out as fresh, modern and unconventionally wonderful.

Patent Leather Shoes
If you’re going to sport a velvet dinner jacket, you better have the right shoes to go along with the look. Eddie Redmayne’s patent leather shoes were the perfect fit for his ensemble, adding a fair amount of contrast when placed against his lighter-shade trousers. Even more contrast came from the fact that he wore one of the crispest white dress shirts at the awards show, resulting in an ensemble that was clean, sophisticated and quite smart.

Getting the Look
If you want to get Eddie Redmayne’s look from the 2013 Golden Globe Awards, you’ve got to do everything you can in order to embrace velvet. This can be easier said than done, and often requires working with a tailor in order to truly get the look. Velvet jackets can be rather expensive, so you’ll want to be sure that you’re not overpaying for an ill-fitting dinner jacket. Fit is everything when it comes to velvet. For best results, go with a midnight-blue shade of velvet, which has a more urban and contemporary edge than traditional blacks.
