Oscar Isaac Wears a Thom Browne Skirt Suit for London Red Carpet

Publish date: 2024-06-05

Oscar Isaac is making a case for the menswear skirt.

The Scenes From a Marriage star has reclaimed his place as Twitter's favorite actor with his latest red carpet look, which he donned for the London premiere of his new Disney+ series Moon Knight Thursday night.

Styled by Michael Fisher, the suave Thom Browne set includes a slate gray blazer and matching pleated skirt, falling just below knee-length, with Isaac showing a bit of leg. The star finished the bold look with a white collared shirt and black tie, black crews socks with white stripes, and black lace-up boots.

Thursday's skirt suit was Isaac's second time rocking the menswear trend in so many weeks. For a Moon Night press event at the Berliner Theater in Germany, the actor wore another pleated style from the New York-based label Commission, pairing the darker-hued skirt with a leather jacket, a graphic T-shirt, and black Oxford loafers.

While the menswear skirt has been a feature of Thom Browne's collections for years, more male celebs have embraced the trend over the past few years, as the gendered norms of clothing have continued to melt away. Seeing Isaac rock the garment has reminded us of how much we appreciate his viral red-carpet moments.

For his latest television role, Isaac will play the lesser known Marvel character Steven Grant, a museum employee living with "a sleeping disorder," and "can't tell the difference between waking life and dreams," as he says in the trailer. Eventually Grant discovers he has dissociative identity disorder and shares a body with mercenary Marc Spector, the titular Moon Knight.

"As Steven/Marc's enemies converge upon them, they must navigate their complex identities while thrust into a deadly mystery among the powerful gods of Egypt," Marvel's description reads.

Moon Knight premieres on Disney+ on March 30.
