Harry Styles arrived in style at the 2023 Brits. In a stark contrast to the bright and colourful outfits we’ve been used to seeing him wear during his “Love on Tour” shows, the singer went for a top-to-toe black look as he arrived at London’s o2 Arena. With input from his longtime stylist Harry Lambert, Styles’s black velvet suit was still so much more than a suit. The flared trousers give a ’70 feel while the textured blazer included a peplum, meaning the fabric is structured to stick out from the waist to create a dramatic silhouette. The design detail was particular popular in the 2000s and is making a comeback – his “Don’t Worry Darling” costar Florence Pugh made a case for the peplum just last week – yet the looks has sparked debate among fashion lovers.
Now, we’ve come to know Styles is a fan of neck decorations. Feather boas make a regular appearance in his wardrobe, as do an array of pearl necklaces. Yet for the Brits red carpet, he opted for an oversized black corsage. And we mean oversized. The floral addition ensured Styles’s outfit was not to be missed, while he added a stack of rings and a cross necklace to finish.
It wasn’t just his outfit that got fans talking, though. Speculation began to arise on social media about his hair and whether the darker shade was a lighting trick or newly dyed. One tweeted, “they 100% dyed his hair to go with the darker color pallete”. It’s a big night for Styles who is nominated for four awards, including artist of the year, and is performing during the evening. We are expecting a couple more changes, so stay tuned for more of his looks.
Styles’s Brits ensemble comes less than a week after he wowed at the 2023 Grammys, wearing a custom-made Egonlab jumpsuit covered in Swarovski crystals. The brightly-coloured Harlequin patterned jumpsuit brought joy to the red carpet, before the “As It Was” singer changed into a silver crystal top, white cropped suit jacket, and beige wide-leg trousers to accept the best album Grammy. Read ahead to see more of Styles’s Brits red carpet look, before checking out the rest of the best dressed guests at the 2023 Brits.
