Doing you Do you look like you’re dressed for the runway when you board a flight? Probably not. Airport style is all about finding a look that strikes the balance between being comfortable yet put-together (think cozy knits, a la Gigi Hadid). But last night, as actor Timothée Chalamet arrived at Japan’s Narita airport, he rejected such conventional comforts in favor of a sleek look more suited to the catwalk than an airplane cabin.
Of course, many stars have been treating the airport like a fashion show lately: Rihanna, for example, regularly travels in sky-high heels. But there’s something even more compelling about Chalamet’s approach to airport style. His double-breasted Avellano jacket is made entirely of black latex, a squeaky, non-breathable material that barely offers the pinnacle of comfort. Still, you can’t deny how smooth and completely unexpected the outerwear feels.

The star used to be dressed for socializing in a certain way – with his simple black T-shirt and loose Loewe trousers – proving that a standout look is all about the accessories. With the addition of an avant-garde topper, chunky boots and movie star-worthy sunglasses, Chalamet managed to give fans a high-fashion escapism. It’s all very Neo The Matrix– you know, if Neo couldn’t fly himself and had to take a plane.
