Though these attributes have made him incredibly successful, there is one thing that is often made fun of; his fashion sense. It is brought up frequently due to the lack of effort that is put into the outfits worn by Chalamet, not only with respect to streetwear, but also on the red carpet.

Zendaya’s Fashion Legacy Clashes With Timothée Chalamet

Zendayais known for many things across Hollywood, but one of the biggest factors that makes her as unique and iconic as she is is her fashion sense. On top of never disappointing her fans when it comes to her wardrobe, she has a signature habit of pairing her outfits with the themes of whatever project she is working on at the time.

While this has only added to her ‘it girl’ status, unfortunately, standing next to her at these events may not be the most fun thing.Timothée Chalametis the biggest example of this, with him now having a reputation for having safe and mundane fashion choices.

Recently, Chalamet and theEuphoriaactress made an appearance at an event in Seoul, South Korea. It would seem that the pair were made to wear similar outfits as both were seen adorning the same tracksuit, with the only clear difference being the color. The similarity has prompted fans to troll theWonkaactor.
