10 Men Who Didn't Wear a Boring Black Tux to the 2022 Oscars
Although the Oscars is the very peak of Awards Season, and many celebrities (especially men) decide to go with more classic, timeless fare when deciding what to wear for such a fancy occasion (like a black tuxedo), there's something to be said about the folks out there who take some risks and get playful. Whether it's swapping a classic black suit with something made of a more vibrant shade, or completely ditching the idea of a tux for different kind an ensemble altogether, there were guys on the Oscars carpet who didn't just wear the same old, same old that we're so used to seeing.
Scroll through to see which male celebrities ditched the boring, black tuxedos for things with a little more color and/or sparkle at the 94th annual Academy Awards!
