It is a fact that close-knit groups of people–best friends, colleagues, lovers or otherwise–will at some point begin to dress in each other’s image. This tends to be an organic process, born from gentle encouragement–“Please can you stop wearing flip-flops in the company of my professional peers?”–or through a mutual convergence of taste built on shared life experience and cultural interests.
There is of course all the more reason to curate a coordinated aesthetic if you are famous. For example, there is Kourtney Kardashian and there is Travis Barker, but there is also “Kravis;” and there is Victoria Beckham and David Beckham, but there is also “Posh and Becks.” These relationships become brands in and of themselves, with distinct and sometimes exaggerated aesthetics. But this doesn’t seem to be the case for Suki Waterhouse and Rob Pattinson, who could pass for just about any other young couple living in a metropolitan center in 2024.
The duo were last night photographed leaving the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, dressed in same-but-different leather jackets, T-shirts and jeans. (Waterhouse accessorized with a studded Stella McCartney tote bag and Pattinson accessorized by leaving the laces on his Adidas sneakers undone.) Theirs is an approachable and “normal-person” wardrobe—i.e., they leave the attention-seeking pieces for red-carpet events–which is a refreshing development in a world where the outfits worn by famous couples are so heavily spectacled. These are, after all, the same people who hard-launched their relationship with a fleece.
