EVERY season, glitz and glamour oozes from the runway — outfit after outfit, they are all solid looks; if you’ve seen Gucci or Versace, you know what we mean.
This time, we’re casting the spotlight onto the front row seats, where the celebrity audience takes centre stage. Call it star-gazing or digressing, we believe these guys show up with style.
Here at August Man, we’re picking the ten celebrity styles we loved from FW19 Fashion Week in Paris, Milan, New York and London. You’ll know why they deserve a spot in the front row.
10: Nick Robinson
MOST KNOWN FOR: Playing the protagonist in the movie Love Simon, 2018’s defining teen-romance film with skyrocketed sales following blockbusters like The Fault in Our Stars.
WHERE: Dior Men’s Fall 19 Show, Paris Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: Pullover and trouser combo with a pair of sneakers, all from Dior. If we’re talking about a cheeky loungewear aesthetic, there is no better look to give the carefree vibe.
09: Carlo Sestini
MOST KNOWN FOR: A London socialite and fashion influencer, one of his latest works involves Salvatore Ferragamo, on a short film promoting the Gancini Monogram.
WHERE: Versace Men Fall 19 Show, Milan Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: When going to Versace, you need to look the part, and Sestini is giving us the perfect blend of smart casual and fierce, from outerwear to striking boots.
08: Augusta Alexander
MOST KNOWN FOR: An up-and-coming fashion model surpassing a five hundred thousand following, Austrian-born Augusta Alexander is a close second to the likes of Lucky B. Smith, known for his photogenic features and impressive fashion portfolio.
WHERE: Versace Men Fall 19 Show, Milan Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: A pair of bright yellow pants and a printed bomber duo surely suits Donatella’s fashion ethos: ” If I had to find a word that defines today’s men, it would be daring.”
07: Pelayo Díaz
MOST KNOWN FOR: Dressing well is literally what he does best; Pelayo even earned a spot on our list of men you should your styling tips from.
He also featured in the Gancini campaign with Carlo Sestini; more points for the fashion street-cred.
WHERE: Salvatore Ferragamo Fall 2019 Show, Milan Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: From the fedora to the boots, Prince Pelayo served a satisfying getup of the classy cowboy. On top of that, any man confident in rocking a man-bag deserves our vote anyways.
06: Robert Sheehan
MOST KNOWN FOR: Playing the drug addict, Klaus is a hot fan favourite in one of Netflix’s newest superhero productions The Umbrella Academy.
WHERE: Ermenegildo Zegna Fall 19 Show, Milan Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: Spotting a Zegna Triple X outfit from head to toe including our favourite Cesare sneakers, Sheehan is making fans do a double take — unlike his druggie character, Sheehan can pull off both the preppy and quirky.
05: Jam Hsiao
MOST KNOWN FOR: On top of being a force to be reckoned with in the Mandopop industry, Hsiao’s fashion portfolio makes him one of the legendary style icons you should already be on the lookout for.
WHERE: Gucci Fall 19 Show, Milan Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: We spotted him gracing the scene at Gucci’s with a suave, black-ivory macro classic galles jacket and pants from the Spring 19 collection. Fans know for sure, too, that his taste in music and fashion go hand in hand.
04: Jackson Wang
MOST KNOWN FOR: Starting out as a member of Kpop group-gone-global Got7, Jackson Wang’s reputation in showbiz has far preceded him since then. The Hong Kong-born singer is also now Fendi’s China Ambassador.
WHERE: Fendi Men Fall 19 Show, Milan Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: Staying classy in an all-black outfit from start to finish with a sneaker-suit signature, Wang gave one hell of a performance that evening at Fendi’s FW19 show with Fendiman.
03: Rob Raco
MOST KNOWN FOR: His role as Joaquin in American teen drama series Riverdale. Also, fans adore him for his alluring sea blue eyes. Does Aquaman even have eyes the colour of the ocean? We think he’d be jealous.
WHERE: Fendi Men Fall 19 Show, Milan Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: Doesn’t matter if you’re indoors; if you look this good wearing shades, keep them on. What we love even more are his Fendi black tech fabric high-top sneakers.
02: Andrew Garfield
MOST KNOWN FOR: Needless to say, we have all seen him in Spiderman, but we bet you didn’t know he started dating British starlet Rita Ora a few months back.
WHERE: Gucci Fall 19 Show, Milan Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: If there is a way to pull off Disney’s Three Little Pigs in a vogue outfit, it’s definitely Andrew Garfield, who hits the fashion game out of the park with Gucci’s Chinese New Year collection.
01: Bryanboy
MOST KNOWN FOR: From blogger to global fashionista, the Filipino fashion icon is a front-row staple at every fashion show. With that being said, follow his Instagram and you’ll never run out of inspo-juice for your style game.
WHERE: Loewe Fall 19 Show, Paris Fashion Week
WHAT WE LIKE: Bryan’s snow-white hair and shearling scarf in his own fall ensemble makes for the ultimate fashion interpretation of ‘winter is coming‘. Styling should always come naturally, and this look is one of the best we’ve seen.
