Timeless elegance - classic suit socks
Every year you follow the Oscar gala, but nevertheless you are not able to remember what socks the biggest movie stars are wearing at that time? This means that the designers have done their job well, because most often their goal is to match the socks perfectly with the suit. A wrong color combination or a piece of calf sticking out are fashion slip-ups that would be talked about for months. If you look at the creations of actors in recent years, you will notice that their socks meet all the most important rules of elegant suit socks. So how do Oscar socks look like? First of all, their length must be adapted to specific pants. Even when sitting down, the sock should cover bare skin. For classic suits, mid-calf socks are most often chosen, while tuxedos are sometimes combined with knee socks as well. The color of suit socks is usually the same as the shade of the suit. For maroon, bottle, gray or navy blue creations, both socks of the same color and classic black socks work well. The last element is the material of the workmanship. No celebrity needs the added stress of artificial fabric that does not allow air to pass through. That's why natural materials work best, including merino wool, mercerized cotton, cashmere or silk. They are gentle to the skin, and at the same time allow adequate air circulation.
A touch of madness - original celebrity socks
However, no rule can do without exceptions. There are celebrities whose fashion choices surprise with their originality. Some opt for patterned socks, while others decide to expose bare ankles. Among others, Simu Liu opted for the second option. At last year's gala, the actor surprised with a red Versace suit and... exposed ankles. A step further went Pharrell Williams, who appeared at the 2014 ceremony in fully exposed calves and short pants. Interestingly, both of the aforementioned styles were high in the rankings of the best Oscar outfits. Original socks surprised in 2016 Jacob Tremblay. The young actor opted for a model from which Darth Vader looked on. Will this year's gala also feature some non-obvious choices or will most stars stay true to the classics? If you're planning to watch the broadcast of the ceremony, looking out for crazy original socks can become great fun to make the time even more enjoyable.
