Looking very 2014 (remember when everyone was obsessed with galaxy-print stuff?), Chalamet was just 18 years old when he walked the red carpet in this Tumblr-approved look.

At a June 2014 event, the "Homeland" actor brought denim shorts to the red carpet.

Years before Kristen Stewart was rocking tiny shorts at the Venice Film Festival or the Oscars, Chalemet donned his finest black denim shorts, some beat-up white sneakers, a crisp white tee, and another blazer for the premiere of "Snowpiercer."

A few years later, in September 2017, Chalamet began promoting his breakout film "Call Me By Your Name." At the Toronto International Film Festival premiere, he wore a blue suit with a subtle red stripe running down the leg.

Just a few days after the official release of "Call Me By Your Name," Chalamet attended the Gotham Awards on November 27 in a velvet Berluti suit.

Funnily enough, he was twinning with the director and star of "The Big Sick," Kumail Nanjiani, on the red carpet, who was also wearing a burgundy velvet suit. Unlike Chalamet, Nanjiani opted for a white dress shirt, instead of a simple black cashmere sweater.

As The Hollywood Reporter wrote, Chalamet wore yet another custom Berluti suit for Hollywood's biggest night. Notably, the "Lady Bird" star didn't work with a stylist until 2021, meaning this look was all him.

He attended the September 2018 premiere of "Beautiful Boy" with a new haircut and a black suit printed with white flowers.

This floral suit was designed by Alexander McQueen, Vogue reported. Instead of his usual black boot or shoe, Chalamet opted for chunky red and white sneakers that retail for $590, also McQueen, which would become a style staple for the actor.

He put a twist on the monochrome trend with this slightly mismatched red suit and lighter red T-shirt at another "Beautiful Boy" premiere in October.

Yes, Chalamet's Stella McCartney suit is another solid entry in his fashion canon, but all anyone could actually talk about was the little Eiffel Tower keychain he carried around in his hand.

In a true fashion-icon move, Chalamet wore actual sweatpants and sneakers to the biggest night in fashion — an especially daring move as he was one of the night's co-chairs.

According to GQ, Chalamet spread the love around wearing many of his favorite designers: A satin Haider Ackermann tuxedo jacket, a Rick Owens turtleneck, a few Cartier brooches attached to his sweatpants, and, of course Chuck Taylors.

"Whenever I visit America, I am always struck by the wonderful clash of uptown and downtown cultures, of music and sports, and all of this energy just mixing together," designer Ackermann told Vogue.

In typical Chalamet fashion, there's more to this Stella McCartney suit than meets the eye. While it appears to be a floral pattern, if you look closely, you can see it's actually adorned with mushrooms.

Let's take a deep-dive into Chalamet's blazer. It was designed by Louis Vuitton, it's trimmed in lace, it seems to be cropped in the back, and is covered in a sequined pattern. Instead of a shirt, he chose two Cartier necklaces.
