Screen Actors Guild Award - Men in Tuxedos

The SAG awards showcased some of the worlds leading actors on the 25th January in Hollywood with a glamorous red carpet event. The men of the event were showing off their tuxedos with pops of blues, metallics, bow tis, neckties and even a channel tie pin, we can confirm the mens at the SAG Awards kept it stylish!

Eddie Redmeyne who won the Best Actor Award wore a dapper black Prada tuxedo which he teamed with a velvet black bow tie and a beautiful rose gold timepiece by Choppard. The Theory of Everything star finished his stylish combo with a pair of polished black smart shoes.

Jared Leto was seen wearing a double breasted satin lapel black blazer with a black open necked shirt, black slim leg trousers topped off with a bright pink poppy on his lapel. He wore velvet Louis Leeman loafers with crystal detailing on his feet with bright pink socks. Mr Leto left his hair free flowing past his shoulders in ombre with a full beard.

Burns Night Attire

Burns night is celebrated on the 25th January, it’s a celebration of the life and poetry of the poet Robert Burns, the author of many Scottish poems. There has been a surge in Burns Night celebrations in the whole of the UK in recent years from people hosting parties and the surge in buying related goods. 

People in Scotland tend to gather together to have a huge feast and eat haggis, a popular delicacy of the highlands. Many will wear traditional tartan attire in all their colours and glory from kilts, socks, jackets, Tartan Ties, bow ties, cummerbunds, scarves and pocket squares. There are so many versions of tartan available, most are assigned to an ancient name being handed down the generations. 

Black Watch and Royal Stewart are the most popular tartan designs of today. Tartan is a pattern consisting of criss-crossed horizontal and vertical bands in multiple colours, tartan originated in woven wool but they are now made in many other materials making them more widely available.

The winners for Best Entertainment Presenter Award went to Ant & Dec who attended the awards in matching 3 piece black suits with crisp white shirts and matching full length black ties, to finish their look they both opted for plain white pocket squares.

The array of mens style was aptly classic, featuring the classic Black Bow Tie (BBT), Black Ties, Classic 3 Piece Suits, Lapelled Blazers and Pocket Squares. 

Then we saw the crazy kids hit the red carpet who obviously wanted to stand out from the crowd, a full on sandy Calvin Klein suit with Louboutin high tops was worn by Alan Cumming, a bold move but we think it works and he most definitely stood out from the norm!
