Leonardo DiCaprio's Style Influence Shines at Venice Film Festival
Partridge's Red Carpet Debut
Last night, Louis Partridge touched down in Venice for the premiere of his new series Disclaimer. The headlines will record that this was the actor's debut red carpet moment with his girlfriend, singer Olivia Rodrigo—photos of which were met with a chorus of Twitter stans chiming “Welcome back Bella and Edward” (Twilight references still hit a decade later, who knew!)
Channeling Timeless Style
Continuing Venice’s unspoken tie-less trend, Partridge kitted out in a Prada fit consisting of a single-breasted wool blazer, worn over a yellow shirt. It’s a suit that doesn’t seem all that interesting on paper, but allow us to point out a few salient details: the poplin shirt, left untucked to peek out of the bottom of the blazer, the peak-y collar worn over the lapels. The suit itself is actually made of an ultra-fine kid melange mohair—melange meaning it’s made of several different colors woven together—you can see that slightly streaky effect here, in his grooming closeup.
Grooming for the 90s Vibe
Speaking of grooming, Partridge clearly decided to commit, full chested, to the 90s vibe. Slicking his hair back with a little more gusto than usual, Partridge let those sideburns climb down a little further, and added a pair of Prada round-lensed sunglasses.
Stylish Inspirations
Partridge’s stylist, Chris Brown, shared that the custom suit was inspired by the OG heartthrobs, the likes of Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio, who’s boyish charm and nonchalant styling ruled the red carpet in the 90s. And given Partridge’s career trajectory, not to mention his now-confirmed pop-star partner, it’s a fitting reference if ever there was one.
