Oscar Isaac Has Us Wanting to Dress Like a Divorced Professor
Oscar Isaac is everywhere right now. Not only did his HBO series Scenes From a Marriage just finish airing, he's currently in two hyped movies, Dune and The Card Counter. But it's not his acting that has got internet fans excited — it's his fits.
A few days ago Scenes From a Marriage costume designer, Miyako Bellizzi shared some behind-the-scenes photos of the actor during fittings for the show.
In it, he plays a philosophy professor dealing with the breakdown of his marriage and the outfits have us all wanting to channel hot divorce dad vibes. Think lush knit tops, brown cords, New Balances and button up shirts, all coming in muted earth tones and paying homage to the original 1973 Ingmar Bergman show the series is based on.
One look that caught a lot of people's attention was a grey crewneck paired with not one but two shirts, and completed with a backpack slung over one shoulder. The outfit caused someone on Twitter to declare that "this is what dressing for the female gaze looks like."
Basically the fits are what an actual professor would wear in real life, albeit a lot more elevated than what your usual University employee could actually afford (in the photos, Isaac wears a Fear of God and Zegna collab knit, as well as the notoriously expensive brand, Loro Piana).
Bellizzi previously worked on the Safdie Brothers' Uncut Gems, which for a not insignificant period of time, had us all dressing like midtown diamond brokers. Clearly the costume designer knows what we want.
Whether you want to be with Oscar Isaac or dress like him, you have to respect the looks. Below, we've gathered our best elevated knitwear, dad shirts and pants, and of course, some classic New Balances. Goodbye hot vax summer, hello divorced professor fall.
