he intricacies of executing a good fashion assignment often lie in the simplicity of mastering one’s style. While taking risks is a top-tier fashion requirement, knowing what works will guarantee more foolproof triumphs. Last week, the dandy boys stuck to the basics, but not without infusing unique details for extra flair. The red carpet events, game appearances, and stage performances mandated these fashionable Black men to stand on business adamantly. With all sides tucked in and not a slacking thread in sight, these celebrities attended the 2024 Oscars and other events with the confidence of a fortified army.

The Looks

All through Awards season, Colman Domingo has continued to up the ante for men’s fashion with his out-of-the-box style. His role as civil rights activist, Bayard Rustin in the “Rustin” movie has fastened the spotlight on him. While stacking up nominations and recognitions, the star ensures style isn’t relegated to the background. The Vanity Fair Oscar party was no different playing field for the style idol who refused to play fair on the carpet in a dapper Balmain getup.

While John Cena made it to the Oscars without pants, John Legend made up for it with a polished Tom Ford suit with flare pants. This was a classic black tie offering, save for the breezy pants that time-traveled back to 90s fashion only to return with a contemporary representation. Simply put, old is the new new, and John Legend seems to endorse it.

Meanwhile, the State Farm Arena was bursting with tunes and high-vibration energy as Afrobeats star Burna Boy and Toni Braxton linked up on stage. Burna gave an approving nod to oversized fashion with his star-studded (literally) boots paired with loose-fitting jeans and top. The sturdier, the sleeker must have been the memo for this fit. If so, he nailed it to precision.
