Is Jonathan Bailey the coolest actor at the 2024 Emmys? Followers Star is nominated for an award tonight, but he may have already won the red carpet.
He arrived in a fancier version of a traditional black and white Armani tuxedo, complete with black tuxedo, white silk shirt (generously unbuttoned), black silk cummerbund and tailored black shoes. His style comes through his red-tinted sunglasses and his gardenia brooch on the left lapel of his jacket. Bailey pulls off a three-way combo that isn’t easy to achieve – elegant, formal and with a dash of sex appeal. It’s too early to tell, but Bailey could take home the crown for best-dressed man.
The actor’s wardrobe choices are varied. At awards shows, Bailey often wears tailored suits that always have a touch of playfulness: a Loewe suit with a floral brooch instead of a bow tie at the 2024 Met Gala, an all-white Givenchy suit with wide-leg pants at the 2024 Golden Globes, and a chic Tom Ford tuxedo at a 2024 Oscars after-party are just a few examples. Off the red carpet, Bailey’s style is more relaxed, and she often wears Loewe.
Bailey is nominated for his portrayal of Tim Laughlin in the series Dear fellow travelers, where he stars alongside Matt Bomer. Fellow Travelers is based on the book by Thomas Mallon and is set in Washington, DC in the McCarthy era of the 1950s. The political thriller follows the romance of two men over four decades. This is the 36-year-old’s first Emmy nomination ever, although he has already won the Laurence Olivier Award and a Critics’ Choice Television Award in the past.
