In New York, Timothée Chalamet’s falsely neglected look causes a sensation



Timothée Chalamet may not be doing anything, but he’s still very stylish. Last Tuesday, the new face of Bleu de Chanel appeared in a deceptively neglected look, which nevertheless demonstrated an almost erudite knowledge of fashion and the trends of recent months. Showing a pronounced taste for casual, even very basic, pieces, Timothée Chalamet wore a total black look composed of a long-sleeved t-shirt and cargo shorts, which were as simple as possible. The two pieces, marked by their oversized side, were completed by a pair of blue Converse in collaboration with Comme des Garçons. The general appearance of the actor on a shopping trip in the streets of New York, seemingly unkempt, was enhanced by various meticulously chosen accessories. The star of Call Me By Your Name wore, for example, a pair of tortoiseshell-patterned glasses, an NBA cap… and an Apple headset, the centerpiece of this negligee-cool look, and already seen on many celebrities.

Apple’s AirPods Max headset, the new fashion accessory of the moment

The AirPods Max wireless headset from Apple has indeed established itself as the new trendy accessory of the moment. Timothée Chalamet is not the only one to have fallen for this piece since Bella Hadid or Evan Mock also willingly wear it during escapades in the streets of New York. Available in metallic gray, green, pink or even sky blue, it is the most effective chic asset to an outfit. Further proof that fashion and high tech are a couple that works.

The secrets of Timothée Chalamet’s new Cartier necklace inspired by Dune


The close relationship that Timothée Chalamet maintains with Cartier allows him to have access to much more than the catalog of the most trendy watches on the planet. The Parisian jeweler has in fact made a habit of creating unique pieces for the actor’s appearances on the red carpet. In London, for the premiere of Dune: part twothe actor wore a dazzling custom necklace, imbued with the spirit of Arrakis.

Timothée Chalamet’s necklace – or his “creation,” as Cartier describes it – was designed under the artistic direction of the actor. The result is a jewel full of nods to Dune. Worn by the Franco-American actor during the London premiere with a look developed by his stylist Haider Ackermann, the necklace was designed to be modular, with pieces that Chalamet can rotate to show off the different combinations of the 900 (! ) sparkling stones embedded in it.

On one side of the rotating pieces, diamonds – orange, yellow and brown – pay homage to the desert terrain of Arrakis. But Cartier didn’t just keep using the same colors, that would have been too easy. The jeweler also set “inverted” diamonds, to create a spiky texture that mimics the bumpy topography of the planet Dune.

On the reverse of these sandy stones is a combination of blue sapphires and spinels intended to evoke the eyes of the Fremen tribe played by Timothée Chalamet in the film. (In Dune (ultra blue eyes are a side effect of ingesting “spices”.) And although it is not mentioned in the Cartier press release, the tubular design of the necklace does not fail to recall sandworms giants who lurk beneath the surface of Arrakis.

“Cartier designs have always been my go-to choice for important moments, and collaborating on this project has only strengthened that idea,” Chalamet announced in the press release. “I think Marie-Laure (Cérède, creative director of jewelry and watches at Cartier) and I found a way to evoke the desert and the harsh beauty of Dune in the Cartier style; it’s a wonderful contrast to the candy-colored enchantment of our first collaboration together.”
