Long gloves seem to be the new sleeve lately -- you'll see a couple of these in the slideshow of frocks from the big night, too. Idris looks typically handsome, and as if he knows a saucy secret.
Ed Sheeran

"Vibrant" and "Ed Sheeran" are not things I'd normally put together, so good on him for taking a big swing here.
Mabel

Mabel could play Demi Lovato in a movie about Demi Lovato, should Demi decline to play themself. Also, this outfit looks -- as many of Demi's once did -- like it would be very irritating to wear.

I guess there's a Green Lantern series coming, and he's in it?!? Sure. He's cute and well-dressed, too, so... sure, all-around.

Meanwhile, Jude Law's son wearing a wine cardigan over his tux, with two bow ties as a sort of boutonnière. He is a lot more pleased by this development than I am.

Oh, no, not dresses over pants again. IT COULD HAVE BEEN A SHIRT, CUSH! Maybe she threw on the pants last-minute when she realized the dress was really just a silver Kleenex.

Ja....mie... TARTT do-doo-do-do-do-doooo. I'm sad Phil got overlooked by all the Emmy noms. When I watched back season 1, I really appreciated that he made the part look easy but nailed the emotional beats. Have I said this before? Well. SAYING IT AGAIN.

James Norton, meanwhile, will not tell you the news. He will merely read it to himself, and then think about it while staring out the window in a troubled funk. You will not get much conversation out of him tonight.

Nicola is a boxer, and I LOVE her suit. I just don't know about the white shirt with it, but I don't know what I WOULD have done. Navy? Would that be too severe? The kicks at least do tie it all together. I have no comment on Ella's dress. I am out of words for that type of garment. It's kerglubbing. There. There's a word.

American Designer Harris Reed arrives for the GQ Men of the Year Awards ceremony at the Tate Modern in London, Britain, 01 September 2021.
GQ Men of the Year Awards Ceremony in London, United Kingdom - 18 Jul 2021
Harris is a designer who came to prominence designing for Harry Styles. (From the photos inside the event, it was clear this is pants and a cape.) The exuberance of this ensemble is indirectly proportionate to that of Emma Corrin, which Harris designed. And which will be in the second GQ event slideshow. CLIFFHANGER. Suffice to say it's not good news for Emma.
