Seth Rogen Is Hollywood’s Chillest Suit Guru |
These days, there isn’t really one “correct” way to wear a suit. Instead, in 2025, great tailoring is more of a Choose Your Own Adventure: You can go slouchy and drapey like Daniel Craig, sharp and swaggering like A$AP Rocky, or classic and preppy like Adam Scott. Or you can take your cues from Seth Rogen, who in recent years has emerged as one of Hollywood’s most rakish and interesting dressers, thanks to an impressive command of color, proportions, and dress codes. Rogen is just wrapping a press blitz of epic proportions promoting his latest project, The Studio, during which he upped his sartorial standards even further by way of a charming, effortless spin on classic leading-man suiting.
It all started at SXSW earlier this month, where Rogen stepped out in a big-time suit: a double-breasted number cut from a classic Glen plaid cloth. Rather than pairing the enduring pattern with a crisp white dress shirt and dark tie the way a traditionalist might, however, Rogen opted for a navy long-sleeve polo with a full-length placket from the British label Thom Sweeney. It’s a small swap, but it manages to make the look feel considerably less stuffy.
Fast forward to last week, and Rogen was back at The Studio’s Los Angeles premiere in a cream-colored suit from Italian luxury house Brunello Cucinelli. The silhouette was both contemporary and slightly nostalgic, with peak lapels and pronounced shoulders that nod to the louche tailoring of the 1970s without veering into costume—a tall order considering Rogen wore it with an open collar as wide as the ocean. Keep this one on the mood board for your next vacation to the French Riviera.
Rogen’s next look came a few days later at a screening in New York: a chocolate brown polo worn with matching pants, plus an inky navy blazer to add some contrast. All of Rogen’s looks from the past few weeks forgo the traditional button-down and tie for more unconventional options that feel right in line with his off-duty style. With a big assist from his longtime stylists Wendi Ferreira and Nicole DeJulio, he’s pairing dressier tailored pieces—double-breasted sport coats, tried-and-true check patterns, mile-wide lapels—with the laid-back textures and neutrals that we’ve grown to expect from his day-to-day wardrobe.
Maybe the lesson here is that there is, in fact, a correct way to wear a suit in 2025—and it’s all about finding your personal style at large, as Rogen has done deftly, and then weaving in sly nods to that particular aesthetic with your dressier garments. And if your personal style isn’t quite as developed as Rogen’s just yet, well, copying The Studio star’s plucky, delightful moves directly isn’t a bad way to start figuring it out. —Tyler Watamanuk
