It’s been a long day (following a long night) of frantic Oscar fashion dissecting. We picked our favorite eighty-plus dresses from the red carpet, and went behind-the-scenes with Hollywood’s top stylists to get a look at the ladies getting ready. As one of the site’s resident menswear critics, it pains me a little to see the guys get such short shrift. Sure, the main function of men at black-tie events is to look like presentable foils for their dates, and not much more. But there’s plenty of effort that goes into those tuxes, too. Which is why I was glad to hear from Wendi and Nicole Ferreira, the power stylists who work with the likes of Channing Tatum and Mark Wahlberg. Tatum stood out in particular last night—a custom-made Gucci tux will do that for a guy. The Ferreiras sent a few photos of the man getting ready. “As if dressing Channing Tatum in custom Gucci for the red carpet wasn’t enough,” they told me, “having the opportunity to collaborate with him on his vintage-inspired performance look took our experience to another level.”
