Pedro Pascal and Haider Ackermann Are a Match Made in Red-Carpet Heaven

THE RUNDOWN

• On July 21, Pedro Pascal attended the world premiere of The Fantastic Four: First Steps in Los Angeles.
• The actor wore a suit and silk foulard from Tom Ford by Haider Ackermann.
• Pascal brought his sister Lux as his date for the occasion.

Tom Ford knows how to make a damn good suit, and thankfully, Pedro Pascal looks great in them. Last night, the actor stepped out on the blue carpet for the world premiere of The Fantastic Four: First Steps in Tom Ford by Haider Ackermann, who showed his debut collection for the house this spring. The actor’s look, while crafted to perfection, offered plenty of non-traditional twists.

The foundation of the suit was a slim-fit white jacket which featured a special adornment. In an interview with Extra on the carpet, Pascal explained that the duo added a red carnation to the jacket pocket, teasing that its context will soon be understood. (Get your theories ready!) In lieu of both a tie and a collared shirt, Pascal instead opted for a simple white tank top and polka-dot silk foulard tied loosely around the neck, embodying his usual editorial ease.

Last night’s premiere isn’t the only time Pascal has graced the carpet in a Tom Ford design by Ackermann. During the Fantastic Four press tour, the Materialists actor has sported numerous TF looks. To name a few: during a launch event in London, he wore a subtly printed black suit, again forgoing a collared shirt in favor of a powder-blue silk foulard and asymmetrically popped lapel collar, a beautifully simple detail that is quickly becoming signature to Ackermann’s tenure at the brand. And at a fan event in Berlin, Pascal opted for a more casual look, with a cream printed silk shirt and scarf-tie detail that perfectly complemented his white pleated trousers.

On Instagram, Ackermann posted a carousel of the looks, saying he was “truly honored for these moments” he’s spent working with Pascal, making them one of the current red carpet’s strongest designer-muse pairings.
