A$AP ROCKY

Los Angeles, January and February (here and next page)

If the suit fits, you must acquit? In a bumper year for courtroom style (see also: Kid Cudi), Rocky's designer tailoring master class—Saint Laurent, Gucci, Tom Ford, and more—epitomized coolness under pressure.

TIMOTHÉE CHALAMET

New York, January

Welcome to GQ Style Mad Libs. We've filled in the nouns for you: Timothée Chalamet stunned in an Arc'teryx beanie, bubblegum-pink Telfar puffer jacket, striped Chanel knit scarf, silver mini crossbody bag, and—wait for it—low-slung True Religion jeans.

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN

Manchester, England May

At first glance, you might think that Bruce is doing cosplay of Jeremy Allen White, the young actor and tank top aficionado who plays the rock star in this year's big music biopic Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere—then you remember that the Boss has been rocking the bare arms since his Asbury Park days.

POPE LEO XIV

The Vatican, June

The moment Chicago-born Leo XIV ascended to the papacy in May, there was only one question on everyone's mind: Sox or Cubs? His Holiness confirmed his allegiance by way of this cap a month later; unfortunately, it had zero effect on the South Siders' dismal season.

KENDRICK LAMAR

New Orleans, February

KDot's dramatically flared Celine jeans stole all the headlines, but the rest of his Super Bowl halftime-show look—from his Martine Rose moto jacket and bejeweled backwards fitted cap to the Deion Sanders Nikes and assassin-grade leather gloves—was equally turbo.
