Patrick Schwarzenegger killed the double breasted look for The White Lotus Season 3 premiere

The White Lotus star killed on the red carpet with a Banana Republic suit

Patrick Schwarzenegger has a relatively recognizable name. You may or may not have heard of his father, The Terminator himself. He is not waiting around living off the former governor’s name; he is carving out a name for himself with his own appearances in big movies. From smaller parts in The Benchwarmers (2006) and Grown Ups 2 (2013) to more prominent roles in The Long Road Home (2017) and The Terminal List (2022), he has started to become a star in his own right. His newest role may be his most popular as he shocked the world by putting more on display than many of us were expecting. What we can’t stop thinking about, though, is his stellar look from the premiere from the popular brand, Banana Republic.

1940s inspiration on the red carpet

Banana Republic has some of the best and most accessible suiting for the guy who needs one quickly. However, this piece worn by Schwarzenegger is a custom job and gives us a precise feel and reminds us of something from a bygone era. The suit fabric, sourced from the Marzotto mill in Northern Italy, is from the mill’s archives and inspired by 1940s wool mohair. The fit of the suit gives us a modern version of the 40s gangster double-breasted classic. The modern high-twist wool provides the fabric with a dry hand and structure, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to impeccable quality, rich textures, and modern versatility. Put that on Patrick Schwarzenegger, and you have the makings of something people won’t stop talking about.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson rocks a Dandy Del Mar Sebastian Knit to Kraven premiere

We all know that the vintage look is having a moment. Every look from the 90s to the 40s is making a comeback and permeating every corner of our culture. Whether you are seeing the other men in the office embrace pleated pants and cuffed hems, or you are getting throwback style vibes from movies, music videos, or social media posts, no one can argue that the styles of our fathers, grandfathers, and great grandfathers are in. That is also true for the celebrity stylists. Aaron Taylor-Johnson is also having a moment. From the moment audiences fell in love with his vested look in Bullet Train, he has been front and center in our minds. He is rumored to be the next James Bond, and he is about to reenter the superhero genre as the titular character in Kraven the Hunter. His moment came front and center to the vintage moment when he stepped out for the premiere wearing one of the best polos available from the vintage kings, Dandy Del Mar.
New color drop adds to your possible depth

The Sebastian Knit Polo is one of the top options from Dandy as they dive into the 70s buttonless pullover, cuffed hem and arms, and knitted texture. It is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to feel as though they are carefree in the Riviera and want to show just the right amount of chest. Of course, you will have to hit the gym if you want to fill it out the way Kraven himself does. While Aaron Taylor-Johnson sports the darker Onyx colorway, the brand just dropped the Shell option, which gives depth to the entire collection.

Ledbury changes the suit look with a unique dress shirt option for fall/winter
Update your dress shirts with a flannel
Ledbury Flannel Dress Shirt Open Collar

Wearing a suit every day is a blessing and a curse. The blessing part of the lifestyle is that you get 12 months of embodying the kind of elevated elegance owned by the likes of James Bond and Harvey Specter. You feel the way people treat you; they assume you are someone important. The curse part of it is in the summer, it can be stifling hot, and in the winter, it can be blistery cold, and there aren't a ton of things you can do to fight that. That is until you find a brand that does the small things to help in that matter. Seersucker and linen suits in the summer and cashmere and tweed suits in the winter are the usual answers. But the Ledbury flannel dress shirt takes a different approach to the winter season by adding style and warmth to your seasonal looks.
Adding flannel to your suiting

Two southern gentlemen who worked and studied together under one of London's premier shirt makers brings you a unique elevation to your shirt wardrobe with the Hartman Flannel. While it is customizable to be anything you want, getting it in its stock form gives you an attractive spread collar and double button barrel cuff similar to your other dress shirts. The flannel gives a thickness to your shirt that makes it perfect in the colder months. The softness keeps you from feeling like it is weighing you down, and the elevated pattern allows you to pair it well with your tweed suits or your knit ties. There is no reason to be basic with an option like this on the market.
