The best dressed men aren’t A-Listers

Transcript

I just don't get it, man. Every year, they put out a best dressed men at the Oscars board. Esquire makes their list. All these different publications make their list. And better year, they they miss the actual best dressed guy. I know who the best dressed man at the Oscars last night was. If you watched it, you probably saw him. But, I spent all day scouring the Internet, and he is nowhere to be found on any of these lists. So I guess I have to show you. This is what the list should have looked like. Two photos. This is number one, and this is number two. This is Chris Appelhans, and this is him last night wearing custom Xenia. You might have seen him on the red carpet or accepting an Oscar for best animated film because Chris Appelhans co directed k pop demon hunters, and somehow he was still snubbed. We actually saw a couple guys last night attempt to do what Chris did in the form of replacing the dinner jacket with a longer coat. Damson Idris did it here with that like fur lapel, and Milo Manheim did it with his boring peak lapel monotone jacket. And this concept was one of the more interesting attempts that I've seen in recent history to make men's red carpet attire more fun. But no one came close to accomplishing it as well as this guy. In none of the best. None of the lists.
