(Photo by Rob Kim/Getty Images) This was in February 2015, when the Public Theater -- the original, pre-Broadway venue for *Hamilton* \-- announced the cast. Prior to that, he'd only done roles here and there in short films, and musical work of his own. He'd been involved in Hamilton's development as early as 2012, too. But seriously: Talk about a career-maker. And Lin-Manuel Miranda obviously has an incredible eye for talent. ANYWAY, the other point here is, he obviously also had cool taste, because I love this hoodie. ## April 2015 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/GettyImages-470028992-1611558227.jpg) This is from an early performance at the Public, and I'm including it because a) I could, and b) they also had a shot of opening night on Broadway, and I'm going to scoot ahead in time for one second just so you can see them back to back... ## August 2015 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/GettyImages-483242738-1611558259.jpg) The differences are subtle, but you can see the costumes got JUST a bit richer and better once they hit the big stage. I love flipping back and forth and focusing on the changes in tailoring and stitching in such a short time. Constant evolution. ## May 2015 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/GettyImages-472929292-1611558236.jpg) He won an award here for his work on the Public's stage. (He won almost all of the awards he was nominated for, except losing one to Lin, one to Jonathan Groff, and one - a Distinguished Performance award - to none other than Chita Rivera, which, OKAY, I'll accept that). I LOVE that suit, and applaud his Ray Bans work. ## May 2015 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_4775275o-1611558268.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Gregory Pace/BEI/Shutterstock (4775275o) Daveed Diggs The 81st Annual Drama League Awards, New York, America - 15 May 2015 And here, we have a lot of his personality coming through. It's bigger, brighter, louder. I love the metallic shoes, and the jacket, and I also think it needs one or two things taken away, perhaps?maybe jacket OR vest but not both, for example. ## June 2015 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9237552a-1611558367.jpg) I also enjoy the unexpected hit of bandanna here, and "unexpected hit of bandanna" is not a phrase I ever expect to need. ## June 2015 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/GettyImages-475584058-1611558244.jpg) He must really like bandannas. ## August 2015 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/GettyImages-483202684-1611558251.jpg) Here we are back to opening night on Broadway. This is gorgeous. Perfect on him in every way. ## May 2016 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_5673668p-1611558275.jpg) Y'all I had to look at this for a LONG TIME to find the line of the blazer. I sincerely thought this was a jumpsuit. And honestly, that didn't feel off-brand. ## May 2016 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_5673771aa-1611558282.jpg) An attempt was made. That hoodie feels like he grabbed it for emergency warmth, and it's stepping on the vibe. ## May 2016 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_5683034cs-1611558289.jpg) Similar, but not identical to his opening-night siut, and it's also really great. He went with a kickier shoe. Blue suede, mayhap? I wonder if he was EXHAUSTED by the end of the night from having to laugh politely at people who were all, "HA, should I STEP ON THEM???" ## May 2016 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_5691334ch-1611558296.jpg) I love this whole look on him. I honestly can hardly picture him with his hair back EXCEPT as Lafayette. It suits him -- he is very handsome; anything would suit him -- but I miss the curls. ## June 2016 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_5729151dc-1611558305.jpg) I enjoyed this so much at the time, but with a step or two back, for me it's... so close but not quite? The hem of the pants feels a touch too high, just a TOUCH, and the sleeves would have been cooler without the added restraints wrapped around them. But boy, do I appreciate that he went for it. I don't think menswear was regularly adventurous yet then, although time has lost all meaning so maybe. ## with Cynthia Erivo, Leslie Odom Jr., and Renee Elise Goldsberry ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_5729184k-1611558313.jpg) Also, the "Tony nominee" captions threw me off -- I forgot they don't update them -- so I was like, "What? Who BEAT him for the Tony?" Spoiler: No one did. Also, Renee's dress really holds up. ## August 2016 ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_5827734f-1611558320.jpg) I have no idea what's going on here. If it's not Thom Browne, it definitely wants to be. ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_5941771b-1611558329.jpg) However you feel about politics, at least the new White House occupants enjoy books, music, culture, and other things that enrich the world. The Kennedy Center Honors, like so many things, will be fun again! Daveed started out on this day with a jacket on, but presumably got over-warm and removed it. He may have looked back and wished he'd tucked in his shirt with this. ## April 2017 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_8771346h-1611558339.jpg) I genuinely love this jacket and want it for myself. I would never have the guts to wear it -- I prefer not being seen! -- but I love the idea of it existing in my house. ## May 2017 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_8822649c-1611558346.jpg) If Uzo Aduba doesn't want to host Celebrity Shoe Intervention, or she needs a vacation, then Daveed can totally step in. ## August 2017 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_8984732cg-1611558353.jpg) ... Okay but this IS a jumpsuit, right? I KNEW that would turn out to be his jam. ## November 2017 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9224183q-1611558360.jpg) Half of this is a tailcoat; half is a slightly too-short sportcoat. All of it is a challenge. I also don't know what those pods are...? Bless you, fine sir, for giving me things at which to furrow that are not life-and-death in nature. ## December 2017 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9272556l-1611558374.jpg) This is to the premiere of a kids' movie, so a pastel Twister mat feels right, but I can't figure out how the red capris fit in here. ## Jan 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9325874p-1611558383.jpg) Like the coat, LOVE THE SHOES. ## Jan 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9326796r-1611558392.jpg) He also always reps his hometown, which I love. ## Jan 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9327045l-1611558400.jpg) This is the cast of Blindspotting - yep, that's And Peggy in there, and Janina Gavankar, who looks hella warm and also as if she made that top out of a small rug that used to live in her entry-way. ## April 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9643734am-1611558409.jpg) This is almost surprisingly casual from him. But the kicks are very good. ## May 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9672450u-1611558416.jpg) I am curious if both coats were necessary. Maybe the outer coat is trying to hide the off-kilter wackitude of the interior one. I like to think his girlfriend couldn't look at him without cocking her head, and he was like, "Shit, better throw on an overcoat or else everyone will be doing that." ## July 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9762990d-1611558424.jpg) I do enjoy his commitment to plaid. ## July 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9763191k-1611558432.jpg) I'm sure all of this is exactly as quirky as he wanted it to be, and equally sure this would have worked better with a plain shirt. ## July 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_9764195t-1611558438.jpg) I wish we had a better look at how this whole thing fit together. The tie reminds me of when people would show up to fancy restaurants without one and the Maitre d' would force one on them from the Closet of Extras. ## January 2019 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10075781t-1611558446.jpg) This is a scrolldown. It's Nutty Professor and then... just nutty. ## Feb 2019 (with Emmy Raver-Lampman and Janina Gavankar) ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10118048dk-1611558455.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by imageSPACE/Shutterstock (10118048dk) Emmy Raver-Lampman, Daveed Diggs and Janina Gavankar 34th Film Independent Spirit Awards, Arrivals, Los Angeles, USA - 23 Feb 2019 Everyone here looks foxy, and I want to clip his drawstrings. ## March 2019 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10161730q-1611558462.jpg) HERE WE GO. This is kind of like Moto Elton John. ## May 2019 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10238000ab-1611558469.jpg) Maybe Daveed Diggs is always cold, and that's why he likes to layer to the extreme. ## July 2019 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10342657m-1611558477.jpg) His smile is truly infectious. ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10437021b-1611558484.jpg) Is this... a pair of rib cages, hanging out together? ## December 2019 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10489909dc-1611558492.jpg) THE SHOES. SO GOOD. He's giving the coat the Kardashian treatment -- empty sleeves -- and it steps on the outfit a little. ## Jan 2020 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10530469gh-1611558500.jpg) Straightforward and effective. ## Jan 2020 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10539000ac-1611558509.jpg) MORE plaid. I appreciate you, sir. ## June 2020 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/01/shutterstock_editorial_10690725z-1611558518.jpg) And this was the last we saw of him at an event. He and Emmy were at a limited outdoor movie premiere, and their masks are AWESOME, as is her blazer. It's a solid ending: covid-conscious but still clearly flashing the megawatt grin.
