CELEBRITY STYLE

How Eddie Redmayne Became This Awards Season’s Breakout Style Star.

CHRISTIAN ALLAIRE

It’s hard for the men of the red carpet to compete against some of the most glamorous gowns in the world. That said, when Eddie Redmayne hit the red carpet at the SAG Awards last month, all eyes were on his bowed blouse and sharp high-waisted trousers. “It’s probably my number one favorite from this past menswear season,” Redmayne’s stylist Harry Lambert tells Vogue of the ensemble from Saint Laurent’s fall 2023 collection. “As soon as the SAGs came up, we were like, This needs to be the look.”

Throughout this year’s awards season—where Redmayne has been doing press for his new film, The Good Nurse—the duo have experimented with style. Redmayne has emerged triumphant as one of the best dressed men of the moment as a result. “I’ve always admired Eddie’s fashion sense, and his sense of flair and fun that he would have on the red carpet,” says Lambert, who has been working with Redmayne for about six months. “When he asked to collaborate, I was super excited to start working with him.”

A highlight was the sleek black Alexander McQueen jumpsuit that Redmayne wore to this year’s BAFTAs. “It was very classic and elegant, but the fact that it was a jumpsuit with no shirt underneath was really fun,” says Lambert. He also loved the Maison Margiela couture suit that Redmayne wore to the New York premiere of The Good Nurse—“it fit him to perfection,” says Lambert—and the embellished, sheer red Gucci top that Redmayne wore to the GQ Man of the Year Awards.  “To be honest, I wasn’t sure if it was gonna suit him—it was quite an out-there look,” says Lambert. “But he put it on, and it just looked perfect.”

The pair agreed that tailoring and fit were crucial to anchor the experimental outfits. “We always had one, two, or sometimes three fittings to make sure the look is great,” Lambert says. The Saint Laurent ensemble, for instance, was fitted a few times and then altered. The pair also always added a timepiece. “We always do one of his Omega watches,” says Lambert (Redmayne is a face of the brand). “At the beginning of awards season, they gave us an amazing selection of watches.”

Sadly, the actor won’t be in attendance at the Oscars the Sunday, but that doesn’t mean the duo’s streak is over. “What we’ve really learned over the last six months is that Eddie can wear great clothes,” says Lambert.  “We wanted to show that Eddie will take a risk, looks good taking a risk as well, and really has the ability to own a look.”

Sussex Divorce Rumors

Well, we seem to be on #divorcewatch with Radar Online’s scoop that Harry and Meghan are “taking a break.” (Y’all remember who else said they were “on a break” before they broke up? Harry’s favorite TV show, and I’m pretty sure Meghan enjoys it too because I feel like we’ve read about it in her PR. I bet we can look forward to similar shenanigans in the PR war.)

(If you’re not familiar, on FRIENDS, Ross and Rachel decided to “take a break.” Rachel thought that to mean they were together but not going out. Ross thought it meant they had broken up so Ross dated someone else. Rachel found out Ross was dating and she flipped out, there was a big fight and it was a recurring theme throughout the rest of the series. I bet we’ll see similar accusations in War of the Sussexes.)

Anyway, I thought I would repost a wrap-up I did a few months ago of all the divorce rumors I’ve been tracking. See the original post here. (The original post also included divorce rumors about all the royals.) These rumors are through February 2023. I’ll update with rumors from March to the present soon.

(November 2022)

Divorce/separation negotiations are going poorly and Meghan is lashing out via Kerry Kennedy’s criticism and the Kennedy Do-Good award. (November 2022)

Fashion and diversity

S i z e

So what is size inclusivity?

Size inclusivity is the practice of equal representation of a wide variety of body shapes and sizes. Unfortunately most clothing brands cap sizes from size 6-14 US (12-18 UK/AU). Fashion has had so much previous history of excluding not even just plus sized individuals but even sizes bigger than the current beauty standard. However as the average size of women's bodies has increased this is a current very important topic in the industry. As society has became so much more diverse fashion must adapt to cater to consumers and encourage consumers to feel confident in their bodies.

In an interesting study by the International Journal of Fashion Design, Technology, and Education, results found that the average size of an American woman was between 16-18, not a size 14 as previously assumed. In America, most clothing above a size 14 is considered “plus” size, yet according to another study by Plunkett Research, 68% of US women are a size 14 or above.

However another issue is the fitting of plus sized clothing pieces. Further to this, when creating extended designs one of the challenges is the need to develop new patterns as it isn’t as simple as using more or less fabric to make the same clothing item.

I wanted to give an example of a brand that could be argued did not understand the meaning of plus size. Victoria secret caused controversy in 2019. I remember seeing so much on social media of people comparing themselves to Victoria secrets first 'plus sized' model. Ali Tate curler was the first model Victoria secret to be over a size 12, however she was only a size 14 and many thought this was a poor attempt of size inclusivity.

Your-Name (2019) Its magazine: Victoria’s Secret hires its first Plus-Size model. Available at: https://itsonlinemag.blogspot.com/2019/10/victorias-secret-hires-its-first-plus.html.

Progress

However the clothing industry has tried to catch up with sizes falling outside the “standard” . The clothing industry has extended collections to “plus size”, “petite”, and “tall”.  However, there’s still major work to be done when it comes to acknowledging all sizes in ethical fashion.

However progress is being made in the industry to promote all bodies and discourage the unhealthy beauty standard. Here are the top London shows of ss23 ranked on their size inclusivity on the runway.
