I don’t think any of us were expecting this. Just a few weeks before the Oscars, American actor Robert Pattinson landed himself an Academy Award nomination for his role in The King’s Speech. Now that he has been nominated for an Academy Award, the fashion world is wondering what should he do to style this prestigious moment? Will he wear black-tie? Will he put on a tuxedo? What will his hairdo be like?!
Well, the world might never know what Pattinson would have styled had he not won the Academy Award, but we can certainly tell you what he should avoid. No, he should not wear black tie, and he should certainly not wear a tuxedo. And his hair should not be slicked back in a messy tail. No, no, and no.
The fashion world is waiting with bated breath to see if Pattinson will triumph at the Oscars. No-one is exactly sure what style he will wear. However, if he does triumph, then he will have triumphed over his worst fashion faux pas. We would like to thank Ralph Lauren for agreeing to give us an exclusive first peek at his wardrobe collection for the Oscars. Stay tuned.
What Should He Not Wear?
If you’ll remember, Pattinson started off the year in a very un-Oscar-like fashion. He wore a black leather jacket with his hair slicked back and no tie. Since then, he has gone back and forth between some very traditional choices (he once sported a magnificent burgundy suit) and some very forward-thinking styles. So, we know that he is quite the fashionable man, and this makes us excited for what is to come.
Now that he is nominated for an Academy Award, the fashion world is wondering what should he not wear? Well, the answer is quite simple. He should not wear black tie and he should not wear a tuxedo. We already discussed the first item on this list; black tie is the traditional choice for men at the Oscars, and tuxedos are for men who have won an Academy Award. So, if you want to look your best at the Oscars, then you should avoid these items.
What is more, he should not wear a ballroom gown. This is another fashion faux pas that will ruin your chances of looking spectacular at the Oscars. Ballroom gowns are worn at special events such as proms and weddings, but at the Oscars, they are for people who are arriving at the awards ceremony after the show. Since his character in The King’s Speech is supposed to be a cross between a king and a commoner, perhaps he should avoid this royal-wear and opt for something a little more modern. Black tie is not the only style he could sport at the Oscars, but the tuxedo and the ballroom gown are the biggest fashion faux pas you could make.
Ballroom Gowns And Tuxedos
If you’d like to look your best at the Oscars, then you should avoid wearing a ballroom gown or a tuxedo. Why? Well, the ballroom gown is worn at special events such as proms and weddings, and the tuxedo is reserved for men who have won an Academy Award. So, if you want to look your best at the Oscars, then you should avoid these items.
Now, some people might argue that tuxedos are not that dressy at the Oscars. While some attendees might not bother to wear a suit, many attendees will sport a suit and a tie. However, I would like to point out that there are exceptions to this rule. For instance, men have been known to wear a tuxedo with a suit as a way of completing an elegant look. Nevertheless, you should avoid wearing either of these items if you want to look your best at the Oscars.
Rocking The Black-Tie Look
If you’d like to look your best at the Oscars, then you should wear black tie. What is black tie? Black tie is a sophisticated manner of wearing a suit; it is usually reserved for men who are going to the awards ceremony after the show. Why black tie? Well, it is dark-colored and it makes you look dashing and magnificent. So, if you want to look your best at the Oscars, then you should wear black tie.
We know what you are thinking, and you should not wear black tie with a t-shirt or a tank top. You should wear a white or a light-colored shirt with it, and a tie will not be required. However, if you are going to an elegant party or an event that requires a suit, then you should wear black tie.
The Oversized Leather Jacket
Another thing you should avoid if you want to look your best at the Oscars is the oversized leather jacket. This type of jacket is not limited to Hollywood. It is seen on the streets and in places like college campuses across the country. However, in general, oversized leather jackets are associated with a negative image; people see them as a fashion faux pas. What is wrong with an oversized leather jacket? Well, it is a very casual item of clothing, and you should not wear this type of jacket if you want to look your best at the Oscars.
I have seen many celebrities wear this type of clothing, and it rarely works for them. For example, when the nominees are announced for the Academy Awards, they are usually seen leaving the stage in oversized leather jackets. These are the fashion faux pas that should keep you away from the red carpet. Of course, you might want to borrow something from the stylings of the famous Hollywood actors and actresses, but you should not go out of your way to wear something flashy or overdone. What is most important is that you look elegant and polished.
Is Black Always Best When Choosing Your Attire For The OSCARS?
Depending on the time of day and the style of your hairstyle, you should sport either a suit or a tuxedo for the Oscars. If you have a day job and want to look your best, then you should wear a suit. However, if you are going to a party or an awards ceremony after the show, then you should wear a tuxedo. This way, you will look dashing and magnificent.
No matter what, you should avoid wearing a gown at the Oscars. These items are for women who are going to proms or weddings, not for men who are going to the Oscars. The Hollywood Reporter writes that the male lead in The King’s Speech, Alan Rickman, wore a tuxedo at the Oscars, and it looked magnificent.
If you’d like to look your best at the Oscars, then you should sport either a suit or a tuxedo. It is a common misconception that black is best when choosing your attire for the Oscars. As we discussed above, if you want to look your best at the Oscars, then you should wear black tie. However, if you are going to an evening event that requires a suit or a tuxedo, then you should wear something different. What should you wear? It depends on the time of day and the style of your hair. If it is noon and you have a nice smile, then you should wear a suit. Otherwise, if it is night and you want to look your best, then you should wear a tuxedo.
