It’s Celebrity Groutfit Season

Unsavory weather and mud-filled snow are not the only conditions in which a groutfit can bloom. Just over the weekend, New York City native Timothée Chalamet dressed to the grimes not once but twice. First, he attended a Valentine’s Day screening of his 2017 breakout film, Luca Guadagnino’s Call Me By Your Name, hosted by Cinespia at the Los Angeles Theatre. Speaking to Apple Music radio host Zane Lowe during a panel afterwards, the actor wore baggy dark pants, his trusty Chrome Heart Timberlands, and a comically oversized zip-up gray sweater with a popped collar from Hollywood’s favorite cashmere brand, The Elder Statesman. So big was the checkered knit on the svelte actor, it took on the shape of a vintage nightie.

Chalamet’s second, and perhaps more notable, semi-groutfit appeared on his Instagram story. In a fit pic he posted on Tuesday, he’s donning navy blue Adidas sweatpants that pooled around white basketball trainers. Then, there was the slumber party deep-cut: a promotional T-shirt for Eclipse, the third installment in the late-aughts vampire saga Twilight. Most notably, Chalamet’s tee prominently features Taylor Lautner’s werewolf heartthrob Jacob. (Though Twihards, as the fanbase is called, were quick to celebrate Chalamet’s apparent allegiance to Team Jacob, it’s worth noting that Chalamet has previously worked with Edward Cullen himself, Robert Pattinson, on the 2019 movie The King.)

It was this final look that made Chalamet my personal champion in the unofficial Groutfit Olympics. That said, if he and his Twilight tee were looking to perfect the girlish grunge particular to a 2010s sleepover, a green face mask and a contraband hookah would have sealed the deal.
