Oscar fashion: The tuxedos

February 25th, 2007, 8:29 pm · Post a Comment · posted by Sam Mittelsteadt

And, now in ascending order of acceptance, the tuxedos:

Bad: EDDIE MURPHY. His suit makes him look like he should be an waiter at the Oscars, not a nominee. (Also: wrinkled jacket.)

Tolerable: LEONARD DICAPRIO. Still not quite right — the cut is very boxy, and he looks incredibly uncomfortable in it. … OK: CLIVE OWEN. The all-black thing is OK, but not formal enough. Where’s the tie?

Good: DJIMON HOUNSOU. Sharp, but would I wear it? Probably not — it’s a little too "look at me!" Without the trim, it’d make a sharp suit, though.

Best: MARK WAHLBERG, DANIEL CRAIG. You never go wrong in a classic tuxedo. Wahlberg should take his sunglasses out of the pocket, though. That’s why his wife has a handbag.
