Timothée Chalamet has come a long way from that green screen rap video he made for his La Guardia High School statistics class. (If you don’t know what, I’m talking about, I urge you to look up this piece of American history.) But he’s still hitting that nostalgia chord hard. He showed up to Paris premiere of his Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown in a leather jacket, a pink baseball hat and a pink scarf.
He’s not the first Timmy T to walk around in a pink hat—shout out Timmy Turner and his fairy godparents always—but the scarf has our attention. It has been a long time, but the skinny scarf has come home. It used to be all the rage on Disney Channel, gracing the necks of Hannah Montana, Hilary Duff, and the likes. It was the era that guys in bands were wearing skinny ties, and the girls were wearing skinny scarves like necklaces (which we actually reported about as an upcoming jewelry trend). But with all trends, there’s always the chance it stays for a season or two, maybe remains popular amongst a small crowd, but never breaks the mainstream. But here comes Timmy T, riding in on a Lime bike, cementing the skinny scarf as a mainstream trend. He looks like a guy in the New York downtown scene from a bygone era. (Thank god.)
Will we be laughing at this outfit ten years from now? Yeah probably, I mean our own editors are split on how they feel about the return of the skinny scarf. But how we feel about the scarf in the future is not really important. And in fact, it’s better to wear whatever the hell you want in the moment because being laughed at by the future Internet will happen no matter what. At least we’ll remember it.
