The Itaewon Class actor schools us on how men can pull off the French fashion staple
Joining Pharrell Williams and Bigbang’s G-Dragon, South Korean actor Park Seo-Joon is the latest male celebrity to offer his twist on a French wardrobe staple: the Chanel tweed jacket.
On Tuesday, the Itaewon Class actor attended the maison’s fall/winter 2023 show at Paris Fashion Week, where Chanel designer Virginie Viard showcased her latest collection. To stand out at the star-studded event, which was also graced by fellow Chanel ambassadors like Blackpink’s Jennie and Penelope Cruz, Park wore a royal blue Chanel tweed jacket over a crisp white shirt. His outfit was complete with a pair of black pants and smart, black square-toe shoes.

Choosing to complete his suit with a classic women’s jacket instead of a typical blazer was a bold move (and one that Coco Chanel herself would have approved of). But Park took his style statement even further: he wore his pointed shirt collar over his jacket, offering a twist to the collar-over-lapels styling trick that was popularised in the ‘70s by Hollywood icons like Al Pacino and John Travolta.
Park’s Chanel jacket also warranted a closer look. The K-drama star pinned a Chanel “CC” logo brooch and a pink camellia flower to his tweed, softening the swagger of his ensemble.

Our final verdict? It’s yet another winning look from the Gyeongseong Creature star, who is known for his refined style just as much as his acting chops. Park’s sartorial track record includes his red carpet appearances and his airport fashion looks, for which you’ll almost always find him elegantly dressed in suits, button-down shirts and coats. Here’s hoping that Chanel tweed becomes a permanent part of his wardrobe in 2023.
