Styled by Taylor McNeil, Chalamet wore a tailored brown corduroy suit, embracing retro menswear. Underneath the blazer, he styled a crisp, untucked white button-up shirt. He also wrapped a printed neck scarf loosely around his collar, a nod to Dylan’s signature accessory during his formative years in the Greenwich Village folk scene. The look was completed with tinted oval sunglasses and sleek black leather Chelsea boots.

“A Complete Unknown” explores the life of Bob Dylan during his rise to prominence in the 1960s. Directed by James Mangold, the biopic delves into Dylan’s transformation from an ambitious young musician to a defining voice of a generation. The film also highlights pivotal moments in Dylan’s career, including his decision to go electric at the Newport Folk Festival and the relationships that shaped his music.

Chalamet’s attention to the role’s aesthetic extended to his earlier appearances. At the 2025 Golden Globes, which he attended alongside girlfriend and beauty mogul Kylie Jenner, the actor wore a custom Tom Ford look that subtly referenced Dylan’s style. For the event, Chalamet styled his traditional tie as a neck scarf, blending modern tailoring with retro-inspired details to nod to his portrayal of the music legend.
