Alan Cumming’s continued efforts to not only rip up the red carpet rulebook, but also wood-chip it, burn it and bury it continued apace at Sunday night’s Tony awards. (See also: Cumming’s Golden Globes “buff suit”.) The star of Broadway’s revival of Cabaret and The Good Wife wore a customised Lucio Castro patterned blue blazer and navy shorts, patterned with what appears to be evil eyes (which had a bit of moment in womenswear a few years back).

Castro also counts Drake and Paul Rudd as fans, and in the past he has complained that menswear doesn’t look as exciting way as womenswear, primarily because it relies on feel and cut, “which is hard to photograph” – a quote he is presumably eating for his hangover breakfast today.
