Alexander Skarsgård flips the script on thigh-high leather boots

Look of the Week at the Cannes Film Festival

The sky-high leather boots were designed by Saint Laurent.

Where’s his bf?

Harry Lambert has been the stylist of Harry Styles for the last ten years.

Just come out already.

He looks like an absolute fool. Why wear a suit when your boots go that high up? Those are the kind of boots you wear when wading through a Florida swamp, not a red carpet event. Modern celebrities can't pull off camp they just look completely ridiculous.

He's so hot.

Alexander Skarsgård moved back to Sweden in 2022. His current partner with whom he has a son is Swedish actress and director, Tuva Novotny-Hedström.

Calling Elsa Klensch!

Nepo baby

CNN getting it wrong as usual - as if he’d be wearing boxers under that outfit! He’d either be rocking a jockstrap or going commando.

Nice, mate, but shoulda worn a kilt.

I'd like to see him naked, except for those boots. His floppy cock brushing the tops.

Did he break up with Kenneth the page? :(

So does 'he flips the script' mean 'he wore'?

I wonder if Stellan Skarsgård is homophobic? And maybe that's the reason? Or Alex is clinging to his sex symbol status because that's where the money is? Either way he's definitely living a lie.

Or maybe he’s not gay. The internalized homophobia in some of you is pitiable.

He's slowly going the way of the now insufferable and ridiculous Walton Goggins.

I think the boots look great on him. And it’s nice to see something fun and different on a man that works and that is not a gown or something gender-bender silly. If Alex was bearding his relationship would be much more public. But it’s not. Some men (and they are usually European) are so comfortable with their sexuality that it leaves even American gays disquieted. I think he’s definitely one of them.

Pedro beat him to it:

I don't see this look catching on like wildfire.

R21, you won’t see it everywhere. But it has quietly expanded what men can do when it comes to styling themselves. These boots are the equivalent of the giant Vivian Westwood hat Pharrell wore. Not for everyone but cool all the same.

He looks like he needs a refresher on his face. The boots don't look bad, though.

He looks like he knows what we did last summer.

Amateur.

I have an Alexander Skarsgård fetish and I have a boot fetish but those boots look horrible on him or on anyone. Something like this would have looked better.

Flip it back

Geez, I thought James Corden was insufferable (which he is), but Pascal, Goggins, and now Skarsgård, are all major contenders for the Douche of the Year award.

I wore mine to the office today. I got reprimanded by HR because it was not dress down Friday. They clearly have no clue about contemporary style in the 21st century.
