Timothee Chalamet Anchors Best-Dressed Lineup At The 2026 BAFTAs
timothee chalamet delivered a classic black-tie moment at the 2026 BAFTAs, turning heads in Sarah Burton for Givenchy. Britain's biggest night in film is underway, and the red carpet brought an array of high-fashion choices from established names and rising stars.
Timothee Chalamet on the Carpet
Black tie, the Chalamet (in Sarah Burton for Givenchy) way set a formal tone early in the evening. The appearance joined a wider parade of designers and statements that made the 2026 BAFTAs feel like a showcase of couture and character.
Big Names and Designers
The 2026 BAFTAs have brought out Hollywood's finest, including Leonardo Dicaprio, Paul Mescal, Michael B Jordan and, as is tradition, Prince William rocked up. In Dior, an unflinching Leo served his classic signature look — now that's some razzle dazzle Western style — while Paul Mescal, wearing Prada and Cartier, served a modern approach to formalwear with his collarless shirt.
Sinners Stars' Period Flair
Rocking Louis Vuitton, Sinners star Miles Caton brought his preppy, geek chic side out for this big Sunday night. Jack O'Connell wore a Dunhill 1930s-esque tuxedo coat, apt considering his film Sinners is set during the era.
Standout Accessories and Shades
Michael B Jordan showed the power of a big lapel, and McDreamy chucked on a Brunello Cucinelli tux and the sickest night shades in the room. Stormzy dolled up in Gucci and Tiffany & Co., while Blythe brought a Seventies spin to classic tailoring, making a very strong case for flares. Twas the night to wear Hermès for young Jonsson.
Rising Stars and Theatrics
In Dior by Jonathan Anderson, BAFTA Rising Star nominee Madekwe brought the theatrics to the awards. In Ferragamo Cillian Murphy continued his winning streak of big red carpet fits, and in Valentino Alwyn brought a touch of Miami Vice to the BAFTAs. Ahmed always pulls out a look for the books, adding to the variety across the carpet.
The future king looked damn good in that wine-hued tux, closing out a night that spanned Timothée Chalamet to Leonardo Dicapario and a wide cross-section of talent and designers. For observers, the 2026 BAFTAs proved to be as much about individual style choices as industry recognition.
