Eddie Redmayne has been on a fashion warpath & his bold SAG Awards blouse has polarized the internet
Redmayne brought the drama to the SAG Awards red carpet.
Eddie Redmayne’s fashion era shows no sign of slowing down.
The 41-year-old actor has turned award season into his own personal runway show as he continues to up his drip with chic unconventional looks that make a standard black tux seem downright pedestrian.
After striking red carpet gold in chocolate brown Valentino suit with a large rose embellishment on his lapel at the Golden Globes and going shirtless in a black jumpsuit at the BAFTAs, Redmayne brought the drama to the SAG Awards on Sunday in a sleek white blouse with a huge tied bow at the neckline and black wide-leg velvet pants.

The Good Nurse star paired the monochromatic ensemble with a pair of pointy patent leather shoes as he struck a steady stream of Naomi Campbell-level supermodel poses.
The entire lewk was plucked from Saint Laurent’s fall/winter 2023 menswear collection, which appeared to draw inspiration from everything from Seinfeld to Cate Blanchett’s lesbian conductor portrayal in Tar.

Reminds me of a power lesbian I used to work for, like she’s about to start a really intense meeting.

Regardless on which side of the fashion aisle you sit on Redmayne’s SAGs garb, the English actor has been getting more comfortable with showing off his fearless flare since he began working with celeb stylist Harry Lambert, aka the man behind Harry Styles‘ sartorial reinvention of the last few years.

Lambert is responsible for putting Styles in boas and jumpsuits and is doing his best to get male Hollywood stars more comfortable with stepping out of their comfort zones. In addition to Styles and Redmayne, Lambert has also worked with Barry Keoghan, Alexander Skarsgård and The Crown‘s Emma Corwin, among others.
Redmayne first began working with Lambert last fall, which is when the Oscar winning actor’s red carpet looks took off on a new upgraded trajectory.
