If our favorite celebrities are any indication, traditional shirts are so last year. Shawn Mendes is the latest star to cosign the semi-shirtless trend, attending the Loewe show during Paris Fashion Week with a subtle strip of bare chest in view.
The musician posed for pics before and after the show, wearing a light green zip-up jacket with subtle ruching on the sleeves and a cozy shearling hood. What he wasn't wearing was a shirt; he just tossed the jacket on over his bare chest, unzipping it a few inches to show off the tiniest bit of skin.
Again, subtle is the key word here; you honestly might not even notice he's just wearing a jacket with zero shirt unless you looked closely. Mendes paired the coat-as-shirt with slouchy army green cargo pants and black motorcycle boots for a cool, casual, effortless fashion show 'fit.
Shawn Mendes isn't the only star going full chest-out for events. Justin Bieber put his twist on the look at the Super Bowl, watching the game in a patterned button-down shirt unbuttoned most of the way down, worn with baggy jeans and a backward baseball cap.
Cole Sprouse also ditched a shirt underneath his comically oversized Balenciaga suit at the house's most recent PFW show. Timothée Chalamet, the ultimate menswear risk-taker, frequently skips a shirt under his red carpet ensembles, including the pinstriped Alexander McQueen suit he wore for a Wonka appearance in late 2023. Is a new menswear trend on the horizon? The weather is warming up!
