Oh hey, valet. Put-together attire meets classic California cool

When Timothee Chalamet arrived at the 2020 Oscars in his Prada ensemble of a zippered jacket with matching pants, buttoned-up shirt and no tie, some said he resembled the chicest of valet parkers, and they were not wrong. But Chalamet was ahead of the fashion curve as usual, as this classic Californian look certainly became the hit trend for summer, best executed in sunset tones of peach (at Tom Ford), pink (at Dior) or mauve (at Salvatore Ferragamo). Add the ubiquitous shades with vintage frames and you’ll be ready to park anywhere.
