The 97th Annual Academy Awards have arrived, and whereas my complete stream of focus can be fastened on Timothée Chalamet’s wardrobe selection—following his Chrome Hearts child pink fever dream (full with a child Ballon Bleu on a pink strap) on the Berlin Movie Pageant final month—the Oscars stay the procession of glamour all of us anticipate essentially the most, capping off a protracted tirade of purple carpets throughout award season.
The Oscars are typically extra sartorially conservative than the Grammys or SAG Awards. That is the night time when nominees will possible go for a glamorous robe à la Julia Roberts in Valentino (circa 2001) or a pointy black tux within the vein of peak ’90s Jack Nicholson. If we’re fortunate, we’ll get a fashion-forward tackle black tie from the likes of Colman Domingo—or, if I am actually fortunate, a 2025 model of Björk’s swan gown.
There isn’t any denying that most of the watches seen tonight fall below the scope of brand-celebrity partnerships—aka ‘pay-to-play,’ which, as a watch fanatic, is usually a powerful capsule to swallow. See right here for my former dive into large model purple carpet hegemony in Hollywood, the place I made a small plea to the watch gods for a bit extra selection. Regardless of the prevalence of name offers on the purple carpet, each in style and watches, we proceed to concentrate and canopy the occasions, at all times hoping to be shocked.
This 12 months, swerves from the norm embody Timmy’s 1994 Cartier Baignoire, Colman Domingo in a gem-set Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch and an uptick in bootcut swimsuit pants (see Robert Downey Jr.).
