As the final week of the Cannes Film Festival unfolded, the red carpet lit up with standout menswear moments that struck a bold balance between drama, elegance, and avant-garde flair. Yet beyond the glitz of the French Riviera, Black male celebrities were equally committed to serving looks, bringing their sartorial A-game to press appearances, gala events, and television sets with undeniable style. From retro-inspired tailoring to daring silhouettes and statement-making accessories, these stars didn’t just show up—they showed out. Ahead, we offer a curated roundup of the most unforgettable menswear moments from the past week.
The Looks
At the amfAR Gala during Cannes, Colman Domingo delivered a show-stopping style moment in custom Valentino—a look that married theatrical elegance with effortless ease. His black kimono-style wrap suit, adorned with a playful red-and-white miniature print, was cinched at the waist with a sash that emphasized the relaxed sophistication of the silhouette. Wide-leg trousers added fluidity, moving gracefully with every step, while a cream beret-style hat and black-and-silver dress shoes introduced a touch of vintage charm. Finished with minimal yet striking jewelry, Domingo’s ensemble felt both fearless and refined.
Steve Harvey, never one to shy away from a bold style statement, brought his signature sophistication to the Family Feud set in a custom Amiri suit. He wore a sharply tailored double-breasted black blazer, complete with commanding shoulders and a peak lapel, layered over a crisp white shirt and slim black tie. A white floral brooch added a refined yet whimsical flourish, softening the ensemble’s structured lines. However, it was the high-waisted, ultra-wide-leg trousers—an unmistakable nod to ‘70s glam—that truly stole the show, injecting movement and a daring twist. Finished with glossy black shoes and oversized shades, Harvey once again cemented his status as a bona fide menswear icon.
On the Cannes Film Festival red carpet, Alton Mason radiated electric charisma in a sleek Balmain ensemble that balanced elegance with an unmistakable edge. He paired a sharply tailored double-breasted black blazer with wide-leg trousers, adding a touch of vintage-inspired fluidity to the modern silhouette. Forgoing the traditional shirt, Mason opted for an open-chest white blouse—a bold choice that dialed up the allure. His accessories sealed the look: a dazzling starburst brooch, stacked rings, and a radiant statement necklace from APM Monaco and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen injected high-fashion drama with a gleaming finish. Polished patent black shoes and Mason’s signature confidence made this one of the red carpet’s most unforgettable menswear moments.
