Paul Anthony Kelly wears black leather pants to American Horror Story premiere
Actor Paul Anthony Kelly wore a black Hermès leather outfit at the American Horror Story: 13 premiere in New York last night.
Outfit details and styling choices
Styled by Warren Alfie Baker, the look included a single-breasted suit jacket, shirt, and tie. He paired these items with tight black leather pants instead of conventional trousers. Jacques Marie Mage sunglasses and a Vacheron Constantin watch completed the ensemble.
Shift from previous wardrobe style
Kelly has spent much of the year dressing in a preppy register similar to his on-screen character. His recent looks featured Ralph Lauren blazers, checked bomber jackets, and crisp Chanel button-downs. The new Hermès vibe marks a different direction for the actor compared to those earlier outfits.
Context of menswear trends
Leather has seen a stylish moment in menswear over the past year. Other actors like Alexander Skarsgård and Pedro Pascal have also chosen leather suits recently. On Kelly, the effect was similarly subversive to those other examples.
