No One Does Red Carpet Style Quite Like Colman Domingo
In a world of very basic men’s fashion, Colman Domingo’s red carpet style is a breath of fresh air. The actor very rarely opts for the types of traditional (verging on boring) suits considered standard on the red carpet. Instead, he prefers something more statement-making—perhaps a theatrical cape, some retro-inspired accessories, or even a pair of high-waisted trousers with a flare. That’s probably why the actor has taken such a liking to Alessandro Michele’s playful Valentino designs.
Domingo’s fashion star really began to rise after he appeared in the hit HBO series Euphoria—he played the role of Ali, a recovering addict and mentor to Zendaya’s Rue. It was then that the actor refined his red carpet style, popping up to events like the Emmys and Golden Globes in designs from top labels including Louis Vuitton, Dior, and Gucci. Oscar-nominated turns in Rustin and Sing Sing, only helped further cement Domingo’s status as one of the best-dressed men in all of Hollywood. Here, look through the top highlights of Colman Domingo’s red carpet fashion.
