Of course, the inspiration behind the suit was rather more niche than cops and patrolmen. The slick two-piece comes from Alessandro Michele’s Gucci spring/summer 2023 collection, entitled Twinsburg, and is inspired by his “two mothers,” Eralda and Giuliana.
On the Milan runway, Harry’s strict two-piece was modeled by two identical twins as the creative director explored the concept of identity. For Harry, who lives a parallel existence as one of the biggest singers in the world and a private 28-year-old trying to keep his normal life under wraps, this duality will perhaps have struck a chord co-ord.
