Daniel Craig's impeccable sense of style has become the talk of the town. The journey from being the dashing James Bond to a fashion icon has been paved by none other than Mr. Craig himself, and we are absolutely here for it.
Known for his action-packed roles as a gun-wielding hero who takes down the bad guys, Daniel Craig has always looked suave in his sharp suits. However, in recent years, the actor has ditched his MI6 gadgets and embraced a more fashion-forward look, complete with longer locks, as he enters his middle age.
At 56, Daniel Craig has been making stunning appearances at premieres and fashion shows, leaving fans in awe of his transformation. Just last night, he graced the Queer Spotlight Gala Premiere at the 62nd New York Film Festival. Dressed in a double-breasted forest green suit, paired with shades and a high black shirt, and sporting his sandy grey hair, the actor looked nothing short of dapper.
The star is set to star in a new film titled Queer and his appearance at the event was nothing short of chic. Fans have been closely following his style evolution and were quick to notice the sharp change from his Bond days.
Earlier this year, Daniel Craig and his wife Rachel Weisz turned heads at London Fashion Week, giving off major vintage vibes. It seemed like the couple had raided a retro store together, but their cool and effortless style was undeniable. Megan Watkins, the Head Stylist at SilkFred, believes that Daniel Craig has best exemplified the "male midlife makeover" trend.
Fashion month was filled with jaw-dropping moments, from the Coperni show at Disneyland to Travis Scott walking for Vetements and Chemena Kamali's show for Chloé. However, the biggest buzzword was the "male midlife makeover." This was showcased by middle-aged men like Willem Dafoe, Rob Lowe, and Jeff Goldblum, proving that menswear is not limited to just tailored suits.
Watkins also praised Daniel Craig's collaboration with Loewe, where he made a bold statement by donning parachute pants, a colorful knit, and tinted sunglasses. This new direction in his style is refreshing and showcases his versatility and willingness to push boundaries, challenging traditional notions of masculinity in fashion.
Luke Leitch, a contributor to Vogue, also commended the actor's fashion choices, stating that it may be challenging for some to see an actor closely associated with a traditional male archetype like James Bond, dressed in a contemporary and edgy manner. However, Leitch finds it great and believes that the idea of what is "smart" or "normal" is just a restriction.
In the past, Daniel Craig has been styled by celebrity stylist Mark Holmes, who has worked with big names like Kevin Bacon and Ryan Seacrest. During his early days in the noughties, when he rose to fame, the actor played it safe with classic slim-cut suits, which were popular at the time. He stuck to the classic red carpet look, avoiding bold colors and prints.
However, in recent years, Daniel Craig has taken a different route with his style, and while some fans may prefer his clean-cut Bond look, stylists continue to praise his "new era." Menswear and fragrance editor, Nick Carvell, believes that the actor has tried to distance himself from his iconic role through his fashion choices, grooming, and accessories, opting for a more laid-back and fun style.
