Can you believe it's already been 11 years of Chalamet? Or, perhaps, can you believe it's ONLY been 11 years of Chalamet? Okay, in truth, he's only really been well known for about six of those years, but still. I enjoy that his first appearance that we have involves a kicky tie, as if to portend that he would keep things groovy when he hit it big.

Same with these... galactic pants. They are unusual, and he will only get better at being unusual.

This event was for Snowpiercer, and honestly, I think he would wear this right now. Possibly not with those shoes, though. He'd probably try and pull it off with his beloved Chelsea boots.

But Chalamet sightings were relatively few and far between until Call Me By Your Name, which is what we're here for now. This is a blue and black ensemble I can get behind, because it's just mild touches of black and such a great, bright blue.

I can't tell if the blazer is meant to be work with the collar popped like that, or if that's his special touch. It doesn't work for me in this ensemble -- none of it really does -- but I love the effort.

One theme you will notice is that he loves his pants to be a leeeeeettle short.

Drape yourself in velvet, Timothee.

What you can't see super clearly here is that the pants have a red stripe down the side, which is a nice touch of spice.

He really is tops at color choices.

HE doesn't necessarily look like this speaks to him, but it's nice, and new for him. He's certainly not been stuck in any kind of rut except for on his feet -- which honestly is fine! We all have shoes we wear all the time.

A new haircut, and some paint splatter.

Those sneakers... make me see why he always cleaves to the Chelsea boots. I love the embroidery on his coat, though (or is it just printed on there?). It looks like a sash.

Yeah, once again, the boots would have been better.

Back in the boot business! This is also a lovely suit -- I like when men embrace florals because they so infrequently do.

Oh, lordy, remember the harnesses?!? He was one of the first ones to debut one, I believe, and it looks just as silly as it did in my recollection.

Someone really kept supplying him with thick sneakers. I get it with this outfit, but those just aren't him, to me.

The short pants really do kill me sometimes, but this jacket situation is extremely neat.

Rolling up the pants to MAKE them too short is a real choice. This whole outfit feels like he should remove his shoes and do some ballet.

I do love him finding a sequined hoodie, though.

I know some of these boots aren't Chelsea boots; these are more Western. But they have a similar effect. Anyway: PANTS.

We're in a disheveled phase. I imagine his stylist texting him saying, "DID YOU JUST ROLL OUT OF BED? I TOLD YOU TO TUCK THAT SHIRT."

He came back SHINY after Covid. And with WHITE boots this time. It CHANGED him.

On the one hand, it's the Oscars, dude, find a shirt. On the other, the suit is sparkly and the bling is MAJOR and plenty of other people bust out the cleav, so why NOT give it a try?

I think this was my favorite Fashion Boi moment of his, although it would have looked better with previous iterations of his hair. I think the curls are pulling focus, weirdly?

But, showing up to the premiere of your cannibalism movie in a red outfit with a bare back is just great and SO entertaining.

The pearl collar did not work for me here.

I love the combat boots paired with the robust tails on this coat. I get it. I get why the kids think he's cool. I do.

And he does like to go shirtless under jackets, that's for sure. Maybe his nipples are easily chafed.

Although, then how would you explain THIS. I like to think he had this in the fridge before he put it on, for a numbing effect.

I laugh out loud every time I see this photo. He tried it! I applaud it! It's CRAZY.

This is the outfit he wore that matched Zendaya -- which, spoiler, you'll see in another slideshow soon. Individually I think it looks sort of dumb on him, but with her it's less so.

And now we have him promoting the latest film, looking... totally fine! But not thrilling. But fine.

And then, the cosplay. Which I'm sure he just did because it amused him so much, and that's fine. But I'm really hoping Fashion Timmee comes out in 2025, because he's probably going to make a deep run into awards season and I'd rather see his originality than his take on someone else's.
