The 12 Best-Dressed Stars at the GQ Men of the Year 2026 Party

We came, we saw, we wore great suits.The GQ Men of the Year 2026 party is a wrap, and what a time it was. Where else but on menswear’s biggest night could you see Stavvy rocking a chartreuse suit, get some potential dirt about the next James Bond straight from the source, and witness Matt Damon learning that “body count” has two meanings? Now that’s Hollywood, baby!As per usual, the evening really started cooking on the step-and-repeat, where the celebs took the “modern red carpet” dress code to heart. We’re talking swaggy suiting, fantastic gowns, and yes, even a very good pair of khakis. Scroll on to see our favorite looks of the night.Ayo EdebiriNow this is how you wear a suit. The Emmy-winning star of The Bear rolled up in an impeccably tailored pinstriped look by London-based designer Conner Ives, which was punctuated by a bright green shirt, a forehead curl, and a deep burgundy tie that matched the MOTY backdrop. As GQ’s former fashion critic Rachel Tashjian put it on Instagram: “She always looks cool, but this is the coolest she’s ever looked.”Ayo Edebiri in Conner Ives.

It doesn’t hurt to have a crisply tailored Edward Sexton suit and an all-time classic watch from Breguet on his wrist.Andrew Garfield in Edward Sexton. Watch by Breguet. TinasheIn Mowalowa sparkles and a Donna Summer-esque ’do, Tinashe looked every bit like the Popstar she is.Tinashe in Mowalola. Stavros HalkiasThe Tony star sexed up the classic shawl lapel-jacket with a high-voltage shade of green. This is what the GQ Men of the Year party is all about: pulling off a fashion risk with A-lister-level confidence.Stavros Halkias in Alan David, Cego, and Bottega Veneta. Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo of Los JavisThe writer-director duo behind this year’s hit international film, La Bola Negra, brought their own flowers last night. In addition to rocking coordinating roses, Los Javis—made up of two Javiers, Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo—put a sexy spin on the classic red-carpet suit by way of leather mesh and exposed undies (courtesy of Haider Ackermann’s Tom Ford) and perfectly tousled curls (subjects’ own).Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo in Tom Ford. Michael RiderNaturally, as GQ’s 2026 Designer of the Year, it makes sense that Rider (wearing his own Celine clothes) would be one of the best dressed of the night. Have you ever seen an undershirt peek out of a sweater with such unpracticed rakishness? Or a pair of khakis look so at home on a red carpet? Take notes.Michael Rider in Celine. Louisa JacobsonTwo episodes into the return of HBO’s Gilded Age, Louisa Jacobson cruised off a successful season premiere in a sultry McQueen moto jacket. She’s been on a style streak over the past year, with several covetable jackets and menswear-inspired outfits in her repertoire—and this leathery number is keeping that streak strong.Louisa Jacobson in Alexander McQueen.

Belmont CameliThe Off Campus breakout has spent plenty of time on red carpets this year, but a wonky striped suit by Vivienne Westwood—featuring some truly humongous lapels—is a major fashion leap forward.Belmont Cameli in Vivienne Westwood.

Shanny Wise and Jackson Walker Lewis of FcukersWhat’s better than one head full of wicked micro-whisps?
