When you get invited to the world premiere of F1: The Movie, you don’t just show up—you arrive. And Mr Eazi did exactly that, in a burgundy velvet suit that felt more like a cinematic plot twist than a red carpet fit.
At first glance, the look reads classic: rich velvet, tailored silhouette, elegant loafers. But the details? That’s where things start to shift. Matching gloves, a silver chain that hangs like a punctuation mark, and a silhouette that subtly nods to something just left of traditional. This wasn’t your dad’s velvet suit. It was fashion futurism with West African flair.
It’s a fitting vibe for a moment that’s more than just a photo op. Mr Eazi isn’t just at the premiere—he’s on the soundtrack. His original highlife track “Attention” features on a film that also stars Brad Pitt, Damson Idris, and Formula 1’s own Lewis Hamilton as a producer. That’s no small flex.
And maybe that’s why the outfit works so well: it doesn’t try too hard to impress. It just is—confident, curated, and perfectly in sync with the moment. Music, fashion, culture? Mr Eazi is doing all of it at once. And doing it well.
