Number 2 is the most fitting fit the occasion. Number 4 allows your personality to shine through your clothing choice and feels more genuine to who you are. I'd suggest #2 for the red carpetier one and number 4 fit the slightly more casual one.
My wife is a professional costume designer She said "He should wear the flashy suit for the red carpet and the better fitting suit for the other premier"
Definitely gonna say #2 for the red carpet-y one, and #4 for the other. Alternatively, if you wanna have some hood old fashioned goofy dad energy at the red carpet-y one, you could swap them. Then while you’re doing photos you could go in with a surprise inside peek of your jacket, and everyone will giggle a little.
+ Also choice b/w #2 or #4 depends on what you want to look like on the more red carpet-y one 2 is more classy, 4 is more fun (give 'em an inside peek) :wink:
I love 4 because a plaid suit jacket gives me big author energy! 2 is very professional and fancy, but since its a red carpet movie premiere, I think you should also add a touch of style with it, like a more colorful dress shirt underneath or an eye-catching label pin or pocket square. Nothing crazy, just one step more stylish so you look more like the artist you are instead of interviewing for a job. You got this!
2 and 4! I recommend 4 for the more red carpet-y because it’ll be a way to stand out better (and get more attention on AFC Wimbledon!). If the idea of more attention doesn’t feel good, 2 is still a smart choice for that one.
#2 is probably the best for the red carpet event, except if you know everybody else is going to be way more fancy no matter what you do. Then go for #4. Don't play a game you can't win and just go for your own style. Pick the other one for the other event.
ok welllll how about the comfort levels? how long are these premiere events? the patterned one (#4) makes u look very author-y and has a football secret which will empower u as u perform for the public so i would say that one is a strong contender for either event. personally maybe skip the black one bc of the funereal vibes but maybe choose the darker blue one for the fancier event. but really truly what’s the weather gonna be like? is this a mostly sitting or mostly standing event? can u check ur jacket someplace if u need to? i have many more questions that need answers before i can make a suitable (haha! suit able!) recommendation
make sure to save time to get all makeup’d bc i know how this boosts ur confidence (: ps - makeup AFTER the shirt goes on bc otherwise the powdery stuff will get on the shirt collar and it’s difficult to remove
do u have time to get the first suit tailored? i think maybe a brown suit or tweed would also look good on u bc of the author-y vibes. another commenter mentioned gray but i can’t really picture that on u tbh
go with the blue shirt for sure bc gray would be too wintery. maybe a tan or baby pink shirt? what are the layer options? i would suggest skipping a tie or bow tie unless of course there is an AFC tie to match with
OMG when and where can i see the movie?! My suit suggestion is #4 - it’s your book, and that one gives everyone an idea of your personality. 2 is a great choice if you want something more reserved. Really the cut & fit is most important.
Just wear the plaid/AFC Wimbledon suit to them all. You’re an author for crying out loud, and one of the best modern authors at that! Let your personality shine! Love you John! Your work and your life inspire me every day.
Definitely 2, torn between 3 and 4. I think 3 edges out. But what's most important is your comfort. You'll look best in what you're comfortable in. Have fun!
number 2 suits your skintone very well and makes you look confident! number 4 is giving fashion on the outside and personality on the inside. I would pick those two !
I’m a suit guy and I love your “flashy” suit, that’s a banger. The off-color button hole stitching is great, it’s still conventional enough for formal occasions but still expresses your personality a little bit. I’m a 44-year-old dad, and it doesn’t hurt to look like James Bond or Tony Stark sometimes. Take all the hullabaloo you can get.
Number 2 and 4 are my favs. Im a fan of hullabaloo in general, and 2 has really nice lines (she says, slightly confident she is using that term correctly). 4 is fun and shows off who you are and your values. You could pair it with a mustard yellow shirt if you wanted it to be even flashier! Maybe 4 for the redder carpet and 2 for the least red.
I love the plaid suit. These events aren’t the sort where you NEED to blend in or conform to the standard, boring solid. You’re there because you’re special. Wear your specialness.
I would choose the first two personally for the simplicity, but the 4th one might be best for the fancy. So 1 and 2, or 2 and 4 if you're feeling fancy.
Two and four for sure, they look amazing on you. I'd pair the suit that makes you more confident and comfortable with the event you're less familiar with, its always better to face the unexpected with a suit of confidence!
Agreed with the people saying 2 and 4! Having a little hullabaloo on your clothes when you're the guest of honor helps the people running the event feel like you respect their work and are taking it seriously. ❤
I love option 4, because honestly wearing it brings joy to everyone around you and it is so cool (It made my day seeing it for the first time.) Option 2 is good if it is a formal evening, maybe with a bit darker blue for the button down under it. If you're going with that light blue button down? option 4. For sure. :)
Number 4 would be best for the red carpet premiere and 2 for the less flashy premiere. I think 4 really let’s your personality shine and to quote a tiktoker reviewing red carpet looks, “I love it when a man does something”
4 is a good choice if you want to go sans tie (maybe at the less formal one). I'd go with 2 (or 1) for the more formal, but I'd wear a tie because wearing a formal looking silky blue suit coat with no tie can be a bit of a formality miss-match and feel a bit off. I think you can get away with no tie on 4 because the patterning on jacket feels less formal than a solid blue.
I think 2 & 4 are the best. 3 is definitely too funeral, and between the blue suits I like 2 better. 4 is just absolutely amazing and I'd recommend you wearing it to both if that was not frowned upon
#2 for the fancier one. It fits well; #1 & #4 look too big & loose. Wear a turquoise colored tie (or shirt) or some other contrasting color for a pop. #4 for the more casual affair. It allows your personality to show; the liner makes it quirky & fun.
2 and 4!! I really like 4, showing off your personality. Especially for a movie/book that's so personal for you. And 2 is real snazzy!! And my own goofy probably not fashionable suggestion is wearing something with a turtle. A subtle tie or pocket square. Maybe even a broach or lapel pin!! I think that would really tie it all together. No matter what, you look amazing and you're gonna do awesome. Because you are awesome!! So dont forget it 🐢🧡
Go with whatever makes you feel comfortable. The situation is stressful enough as it is. That could be the Dons ("having your back" in a way) or a suit that makes you feel like you are dressed sharply (like what you always say about makeup).
The 4th and the 2nd (that one being of course for the fancier one?). Those are beautiful suits. The first one is like a wedding or Easter suit I think and the 3rd is, yeah!, really good for funerals. :D
3 for the fancier, 2 for the other. A quality, well fitting black suit doesn't have to be funereal. Paired with a a slimmer tie and well polished shoes it can be quite stylish without the flashiness of a tux.
It's an interesting split between people. I think 1 and 2 works well for you, but it's hard to judge with a how limited visibility we got from the video
Everytime I see that background I think it's a bunch of mailboxes in an apartment lobby and then I get confused because why would John be in an apartment lobby this often. You'd think I'd have clued in by now lol
2 3 and 4 are all great. If one is red carpety, 3 or 4 works best for that but it depends on if you feel more like showing personality or showing elegance.
The second one is the best in my opinion. It suits you very well. The forth one is very casual. The third one and the first are almost the same, but the third one is more formal (and also colour-wise I think the third one is a little bit better because of the glasses). So it depends on what do you want and on the type of occasion. In the forth suit you will come of as easy-going probably. Anyway the second suit is my favorite
Dark blue with squiggles (stitching) for the fancy one, or go bizarre and choose the Wimbledon because you are an eccentric author. Plus, it looks comfy. ( as in , you look more at ease in it). Have fun! Enjoy yourself! This is an exciting event 😊 🙌
I think 2 and 4 are your best bets. The fit on 2 is nice and 4 fits well with your personality. I’d recommend 4 on the bigger night and then 2 on the smaller one.
I would echo Suit 2 for fancier, suit 4 for personality, but I also want to say that suit 3 is only funereal if you wear a greyscale undershit! Adding a pop of color would really liven it up & still be formal
imma say aswell like the majority already mentioned: number 2 is most certain the universal solution :: its to assume that this is a evening(ish) event so the classy/elegant aspect is with that definitly fulfilled but you wont have to worry about possibly "too much, *too serious appearing (if that wording makes even sense)" with something like the black option. the first one (you called the casual dad-suit situation) i personally would more suggest in a buisness setting trough the day.. the last one.. is visible one you connect emotionally with for some reasons yet for a "possibly red carpet-ish situation" (and i dont know your exact "role" there could eventual be seen from whoamever as "he aint taking that all even serious enough (if that could/should be so to begin with?!)" hopefully those little thoughts, if they even make sense out of my weird brain ^^, can assist your final desicion process since most answers i saw where only "nr x, nr y" but no why or why not but in the end lets be real for a second.. a legend like you will look incredible and absolutly stunning no matter what he wears anyways but for the occasion i guess, number 2 would suit best ^^
4 for the red carpet, (and consider showing off the lining to an interviewer) because being a bit outrageous is good for business, 2 for the other premier because you want to look fly.
The first three are all good for this occasion, but you need to pick a different shirt. Try a white one. Since this is a movie premiere, I actually would recommend the black suit, but you would absolutely need a white shirt for that, and a nice tie to match.
Suit #2 for the more red carpet event, and either suit #1 or suit #4 for the other event. I'm personally in favor of #4 because of the amazing lining and story behind the suit jacket, but either one is fine. I agree that suit #3 would look too much like funeral attire.
Adding my vote for suits 2 and 4. You could hullabaloo up suit 2 with a shirt with an interesting pattern if you're feeling a little wild, but something basic works just as well.
#1 is good suit. Wear it to the less formal thing. Take #2 & #4 for the red carpet, and depending on how whimisical you feel the night of, make a gametime decision about the fancy lining jacket or not
Number 2 is the most fitting fit the occasion.
Number 4 allows your personality to shine through your clothing choice and feels more genuine to who you are.
I'd suggest #2 for the red carpetier one and number 4 fit the slightly more casual one.
I opt for the same two, but Wimbledon for the red carpet.
Agreed
Exactly what I was going to suggest
+
Exactly what I thought as well.
My wife is a professional costume designer
She said "He should wear the flashy suit for the red carpet and the better fitting suit for the other premier"

🙌
+++
John has said on multiple occasions that he thinks we should listen to experts. I think he has his answer.
+
"Who are you wearing?" ... "AFC Wimbledon."
Who are you wearing? Adebayo Akinfenwa.
For this reason alone, #4 wins for me
The skin of some random guy.
OMG I love it
Definitely gonna say #2 for the red carpet-y one, and #4 for the other. Alternatively, if you wanna have some hood old fashioned goofy dad energy at the red carpet-y one, you could swap them. Then while you’re doing photos you could go in with a surprise inside peek of your jacket, and everyone will giggle a little.

+
+
Yep!!!
+
2 and 4! #4 specifically for the red carpet-y one.
+
Yes
+++
I would 100% wear 2 and 4 myself.
+
Also choice b/w #2 or #4 depends on what you want to look like on the more red carpet-y one
2 is more classy, 4 is more fun (give 'em an inside peek) :wink:
Totally agree!!
Numbers 2 and 4
As long as they’re comfortable. Visualize how you’re going to feel in them after 2 hours. Wear whatever’s most comfortable.
2 and 4 all the way!
all the way down you could say
I love 4 because a plaid suit jacket gives me big author energy! 2 is very professional and fancy, but since its a red carpet movie premiere, I think you should also add a touch of style with it, like a more colorful dress shirt underneath or an eye-catching label pin or pocket square. Nothing crazy, just one step more stylish so you look more like the artist you are instead of interviewing for a job. You got this!
Turtle tie...
#2 for the "Fancy" premiere, #4 for the other one.
Absolutely this
Agree!!
2 and 4! I recommend 4 for the more red carpet-y because it’ll be a way to stand out better (and get more attention on AFC Wimbledon!). If the idea of more attention doesn’t feel good, 2 is still a smart choice for that one.
E
Adding my voice to the chorus, 2 and 4 are the best options
2 and 4, but let's be honest, funereal is totally on brand
He could also wear a fun shirt with the black to make it less funeral like. But I say go with the one that fits best for the red carpet one.
2 & 4 for sure 2 formal 4 less formal both look great
Suits 2 & 4!!! Iconic choices
Looking very dapper in option #2 with the hullabaloo
I say go with 2 and 4 for red carpety and not, respectively
#2 is probably the best for the red carpet event, except if you know everybody else is going to be way more fancy no matter what you do. Then go for #4. Don't play a game you can't win and just go for your own style. Pick the other one for the other event.
Glad to see we're all feeling 2 & 4!

My suit suggestion is #4 - it’s your book, and that one gives everyone an idea of your personality. 2 is a great choice if you want something more reserved. Really the cut & fit is most important.
It releases May 2nd on MAX (HBO)
There's also a trailer out now!
#2 is classy without being TOO much, and #4 is fun, simple as.
They all look good on you John, I say wear whichever one you feel most comfortable in. Definitely wear a 4 though to one it feels more you!
FOUR. That’s an awesome jacket.
Only choice really.
I think number 2 and 4 are the best suit options
i like 2 and 4 as well
i think that's a suit-able suggestion, right?
Always choose whats most comfortable for you...but if they are all kinda equal, definitely 2 & 4!
For sure 2 and 4. Loving the hullabaloo
I like 2 & 4 as well. Both look great on you
2 and 4. 4 is fucking sweet inside and out.
Honestly, go with 2 & 3, but if you can, make the button-up orange to reflect the book's cover art.
Good advice about the orange button up
I feel like #3 makes him look dead/dull. Especially compared to #2. Black ≠ better
@@AmiCestLaVieThis is why I think the orange button-up can make the outfit pop and feel more alive.
2 and 3, but 3 with some bold color like a striking pink button up and some really good nerdy cuff links
4 both times.
Just wear the plaid/AFC Wimbledon suit to them all. You’re an author for crying out loud, and one of the best modern authors at that! Let your personality shine! Love you John! Your work and your life inspire me every day.
I'd go for 2 and 4! 2 for the fancier one
Definitely 2, torn between 3 and 4. I think 3 edges out. But what's most important is your comfort. You'll look best in what you're comfortable in. Have fun!
Definitely 2 or 4
number 2 suits your skintone very well and makes you look confident! number 4 is giving fashion on the outside and personality on the inside. I would pick those two !
Flashy suit and fancy blue.
Wimbledon suit is delightful.
I’m a suit guy and I love your “flashy” suit, that’s a banger. The off-color button hole stitching is great, it’s still conventional enough for formal occasions but still expresses your personality a little bit.

2 and 4. Probably 2 for the fancier one. As a bonus, 4 works for a conversation topic if you need one.
I love option 4, because honestly wearing it brings joy to everyone around you and it is so cool (It made my day seeing it for the first time.) Option 2 is good if it is a formal evening, maybe with a bit darker blue for the button down under it. If you're going with that light blue button down? option 4. For sure. :)
2 for the fancier one, and 4 for the more casual one, both suit you well :3
I think #2 for the more formal event, #4 for the less formal. Don't be afraid to try a different shirt color and/or tie to get fancier.
The 2nd fancy blue suit for one of them. And the fancy Wimbledon one for the red carpet-y one.
I'd say the 2nd for the red-carpety one and the 4th for the other event. Marvelous!
Number 4 would be best for the red carpet premiere and 2 for the less flashy premiere. I think 4 really let’s your personality shine and to quote a tiktoker reviewing red carpet looks, “I love it when a man does something”

#2 :) you look great John! Deep breaths for the anxiety spirals ❤
2 and 4!! I really like 4, showing off your personality. Especially for a movie/book that's so personal for you. And 2 is real snazzy!!
And my own goofy probably not fashionable suggestion is wearing something with a turtle. A subtle tie or pocket square. Maybe even a broach or lapel pin!! I think that would really tie it all together.
No matter what, you look amazing and you're gonna do awesome. Because you are awesome!! So dont forget it 🐢🧡
Flashy all the way. Exert that you are, indeed, an artist.
Love the last one. Author vibes for sure
Go with whatever makes you feel comfortable.
The situation is stressful enough as it is.
That could be the Dons ("having your back" in a way) or a suit that makes you feel like you are dressed sharply (like what you always say about makeup).
2 and 4 for sure. Be snazzy Indy Man. And Congrats on the Movie! (From an Indy Native)
I like #2, but #3 with a flashy shirt would be awesome. Live it up!
Last one works as a reversible jacket. You have two suits in one.😂
#2 genuine answer. #4 is funny, though
The 4th and the 2nd (that one being of course for the fancier one?). Those are beautiful suits. The first one is like a wedding or Easter suit I think and the 3rd is, yeah!, really good for funerals. :D
suit 2 for red carpet, suit 4 for the more laid-back one
3 for the fancier, 2 for the other. A quality, well fitting black suit doesn't have to be funereal. Paired with a a slimmer tie and well polished shoes it can be quite stylish without the flashiness of a tux.
It's an interesting split between people. I think 1 and 2 works well for you, but it's hard to judge with a how limited visibility we got from the video

Have fun! Enjoy yourself! This is an exciting event 😊 🙌
Dark blue with the hullabaloo, seems a balance between formal/funerial and simple/casual
Agree on 2 and 4, but with the AFC Wimbledon for the red carpet one because it's ✨ fun ✨
I think 2 and 4 are your best bets. The fit on 2 is nice and 4 fits well with your personality. I’d recommend 4 on the bigger night and then 2 on the smaller one.
Definitely number 2! Number 4 is cool too, but it might not be very appropriate for the occasion, so save that for a more casual event!
I would echo Suit 2 for fancier, suit 4 for personality, but I also want to say that suit 3 is only funereal if you wear a greyscale undershit! Adding a pop of color would really liven it up & still be formal
2 and 4.
2 is classy without being too formal. 4 is fun and a little outside the boring, standard suit range.
imma say aswell like the majority already mentioned:
number 2 is most certain the universal solution :: its to assume that this is a evening(ish) event so the classy/elegant aspect is with that definitly fulfilled but you wont have to worry about possibly "too much, *too serious appearing (if that wording makes even sense)" with something like the black option.
the first one (you called the casual dad-suit situation) i personally would more suggest in a buisness setting trough the day..
the last one.. is visible one you connect emotionally with for some reasons yet for a "possibly red carpet-ish situation" (and i dont know your exact "role" there could eventual be seen from whoamever as "he aint taking that all even serious enough (if that could/should be so to begin with?!)"
hopefully those little thoughts, if they even make sense out of my weird brain ^^, can assist your final desicion process since most answers i saw where only "nr x, nr y" but no why or why not
but in the end lets be real for a second.. a legend like you will look incredible and absolutly stunning no matter what he wears anyways but for the occasion i guess, number 2 would suit best ^^
John, commit to the bit. Commission a excessively detailed turtle costume
Suit #2 and #4 are my favorites.
2 and 4, 4 for red carpet. Classy AF.
Option 2 & 4. #2 for the fancier event, #4 for the more casual event.
4 for the red carpet, (and consider showing off the lining to an interviewer) because being a bit outrageous is good for business, 2 for the other premier because you want to look fly.
I think the AFC Wimbledon looks great and is reversible if you get a stain. So for booth style and efficiency I'd go with that outfit.
2 for the stooges, 4 for your friends. If they're both equally friended or too red carpety, you have to do 3 for the fancy one.
2 is is professional and slick I like it. Then 4 has some cool fancy style to it plus maybe having your team there will make you feel less anxious!
number 4 for red carpet, hands down!!
The first three are all good for this occasion, but you need to pick a different shirt. Try a white one.
Since this is a movie premiere, I actually would recommend the black suit, but you would absolutely need a white shirt for that, and a nice tie to match.
Suit #2 for the more red carpet event, and either suit #1 or suit #4 for the other event. I'm personally in favor of #4 because of the amazing lining and story behind the suit jacket, but either one is fine. I agree that suit #3 would look too much like funeral attire.
Adding my vote for suits 2 and 4. You could hullabaloo up suit 2 with a shirt with an interesting pattern if you're feeling a little wild, but something basic works just as well.
2 for the fancier, 4 for the other one. You look very nice in all of them.
I'm crying at the last suit, it's so John 😭😭😭
#1 is good suit. Wear it to the less formal thing. Take #2 & #4 for the red carpet, and depending on how whimisical you feel the night of, make a gametime decision about the fancy lining jacket or not
I would definitely advise you reconsider the shirt choice, It could make the suit jive a lot better
Option 4 is the obvious choice but if you decide it's too flashy go for Option 2. Red carpet outfits should be interesting.
Number 2 and number 4 are my suggestions! Good luck!💛
