At the Cannes Film Festival, men’s fashion usually sticks to a strict black-tie script—unless Jeremy Strong is in the spotlight. The actor is redefining the male dress code on the Croisette, embracing a range of hues and textures that stand out amid the sea of standard tuxedos. From vibrant pinks to muted taupes, Strong has made it clear: he’s not here to play it safe.
Strong brought his signature flair to the L’Oréal Paris Dinner in Honour of Women in Cinema, showing up in a custom Loro Piana ensemble. The peach-toned outfit offered a masterclass in tonal dressing, with softly structured tailoring that looked polished yet relaxed. Brown leather shoes grounded the look, while the overall effect was effortlessly sophisticated. Coincidentally—or perhaps intentionally—he shared a complementary color palette with Halle Berry, creating a striking visual harmony.
For the premiere of The Phoenician Scheme, Strong stunned in a mint green suit by Loro Piana. He took the look further with a matching bow tie and green Jacques Marie Mage sunglasses, injecting a sense of Riviera-ready elegance. The suit’s shawl collar nodded to formality, but the mint tone kept the look fresh and breezy—an ideal combination for Cannes’ sun-drenched vibe. Though he opted for black shoes—a slight contrast—they did little to detract from the charm of the outfit. The entire ensemble exuded a polished nonchalance that’s harder to master than it appears.
Strong continued his bold fashion narrative at the Mayor of Cannes’ annual Aioli Lunch, where he sported a silk satin look from Lanvin that oozed retro glamour. With a high-neck blouson top and soft mauve tones, the outfit channeled vintage 1970s style in a way that felt both nostalgic and fresh. It was an unexpected, yet perfectly executed move—one that proves he’s not afraid to take risks on the red carpet.
In a festival known for its formulaic men’s attire, Jeremy Strong’s fearless and colorful wardrobe choices have provided a much-needed shake-up. By mixing vintage influences with modern tailoring and a painter’s palette of colors, he’s turning heads—and setting new standards for men’s style at Cannes.
