Say hello to Hollywood's newest darling - the Cavalier of Inisherin | Jess CartnerMorley
The Oscars fashion triumph this weekend won't be a red carpet designer dress. It won't even be gender-neutral customization work that defies the norm. No. It will be a nice warm and cozy sweater.
Whether or not The Banshees of Inisherin wins one of the nine categories in which it is nominated, it has already won fashion. The fisherman knits worn by Colin Farrell have had the style world swooning since the movie was released last year.
Whatever the Academy decides, the film has already been crowned "Knitwear Film" by Esquire, while Vanity Fair gave "The Sweaters of Inisherin" a rave review in real life, not on the catwalks - and brings three layers of magic to your wardrobe.
Authentic and rugged, it's sprayed with a salty sea breeze from high-necked, beach-romantic strolls.On top of that, it has Hollywood sex appeal- Colin Farrell is to a chunky knit what Brigitte Bardot was to a striped T-shirt, but last but not least, it's a versatile and useful piece of clothing that makes as much sense on a brisk Sunday morning stroll as it does on a Saturday night ahead. the photos.
The film was shot on Achill Island, off the coast of County Mayo, and on Inishmore, one of the islands s of Aran from Galway Bay, where Aran knitting originated, but Inisherin is not an actual place. And in the spirit of Tinseltown, finding the perfect fisherman sweater for your wardrobe isn't really about dressing like a real person who goes fishing for a living, so please don't take too long. to that. It's a mood. You want lots of texture - something grainy or ridged.
And you want a neckline that isn't a neat crew-neck or a suave polo neck, but something looser and more relaxed. A wide boat neck that looks like it's been loosened over years of walks on the beach and then ripped off when you settle in front of a log fire is perfect.
The super- heroes no longer wear capes; modern screen heroes (and anti-heroes) wear sweaters instead. Before Sarah Lund's coarse-grained Faroese knit in The Killing, there was The Dude's cardigan in The Big Lebowski. In Knives Out we had Chris Evans' character Ransom in a knit as rich and chunky as clotted cream, while in Schitt's Creek David Rose wore what was the top hit from the "New In" section of Mr. Porter that week.
Funny to think, now, that the riders seemed a bit boring. These days, they have the energy of the main character.
You'll recognize an awesome fisherman's sweater when you see it - but a good one is surprisingly hard to find. Unlike the marinière whose omnipresence has darkened the atmosphere a little, the fisherman's sweater has a sound and personal familiarity but all the more desirable since it is not, in fact, everywhere.
