Singer-songwriter Conan Gray clearly has the Bard on the brain. The star has long held a penchant for crafting tweets that read like lines from a sonnet. Now the Superache singer is taking his bibliophilia to a new level by leaning into full-on Shakespearean garb.
For a recent trip to the theater, Conan decided to embrace the Elizabethan. The rising star donned a velvet blazer and trousers from Saint Laurent, paired with a sheer pussy bow top designed by CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund finalist Jackson Wiederhoeft. The look immediately calls to mind ill-fated romances, mischievous fairies, and a play-within-a-play.
The outfit was fitting for the occasion. Conan was in attendance for a performance of & Juliet, a buzzy new jukebox musical currently running in Toronto, after a successful West End stint. The musical reimagines the ending of Romeo & Juliet through keeping Juliet alive and explores her path towards mending a broken heart. (Oh, and it features Max Martin-produced pop bangers like “I Want It That Way” and “…Baby One More Time” throughout.)
