We Asked Vogue, GQ, and a Pro Stylist to Kill Jensen Huang’s Leather Jacket
The signature moto jacket has officially worn out its welcome. Here’s how fashion’s pros would rebrand him.
The tech billionaire Jensen Huang, known for his role in the AI revolution, has been criticized for his leather jacket fashion choices. Known for his leather jackets and mistake-making, Huang's outfits have been deemed unapologetic and flashy. Experts suggest that Huang should make a change in his wardrobe to start with his stylist Karen Clarkson who suggests that Huang should ditch the leather jacket for something more somber.
If Huang wants to walk the catwalk, she believes he should walk in Milan in a collared Oxford shirt and a navy or gray crewneck jumper. A more apologetic dress code is needed and should move away from flashy colors. Taking a page from Harry Styles' dress-down codes, Clarkson suggests that Huang take a leaf out of Harry's book for minimal looks or a Lemaire workwear jacket.
If Huang is feeling itchy, Clarkson suggests he wear lambswool instead of cashmere. Clarkson advises that Huang should take small steps and not change his look overnight. She suggests that he keep the leather jacket, perhaps switching to a suede blouson. He could also ditch the black jeans and go for proper pants. Clarkson suggests a tie, brown leather jacket, and shirt as a segue into a new direction, inspired by Giorgio Armani's June Milan collection.
Ultimately, the credit goes to Huang's wife, Lori, who did a brilliant job creating an identity for her husband. She could rebrand as a Hollywood stylist with a great divorce settlement and a new career.
