Despite his sporadic public appearances, Donald Glover always makes sure he leaves a lasting impression. The artist, otherwise known by his stage name “Childish Gambino,” temporarily paused the world with the release of his song “This is America,” while his work on Atlanta continues to bring up important (and entertaining) conversations on race and culture.
No matter the occasion, Glover always makes sure he’s dressed to the nines. He approaches both his red carpet and off-duty style with boldness and individuality, pulling retro-inspired shirts alongside floral silk pajamas. Even his most over-the-top fits look effortless. With these eight pieces under $100, they can feel effortless on you, too.
Men's Cheetah-Print Satin Pajama Shirt, $25
It can sometimes be hard to tell whether Donald is wearing a silky set that’s actually pajamas (or vice versa) — but that’s part of what makes his look fun. Channel the artist with this bold button-up.
Croc-Embossed Leather Bit Driving Loafers, $100
Glover likes to mix luxurious business pieces with bold yet laidback looks, constantly pairing his own alligator skin loafers with floral silk pajamas. Try getting the same style by wearing these shoes with printed track pants.
ASOS DESIGN satin 70s shirt with ruffle front, $45
Silky shirts and ‘70s style make up most of Glover’s looks. Style this brown button-up with striped slacks or corduroy pants to complete his retro fit.
ARGYLE STITCH LEATHER BELT, $65
If you’re going to channel Glover, you’re going to need a bitchin’ belt. The actor wears one regardless of what the dress code is, and this iteration will look good with striped suit or a vintage graphic tee.
GRIP 36 LOOSE JEANS, $80
Tap into Donald’s preferred pant style with these wide ‘70s-style jeans. They’ll give you a structured yet laidback look, especially if you pair them with some retro high-top sneakers.
Snake Chain, $55
Glover prefers to wear his shirts slightly unbuttoned, always keeping his gold chain (or chains) on display. Add to your look without overwhelming it with this delicate snake chain.
Hickory Stripe Carpenter Pants, $45
Channel Donald’s love of pinstripes with these structured pants. Like the artist himself, make sure to mix the print with another bold one — Glover seems to like flowers and animal print.
Reebok Men's Club C 85 Low Top Sneakers, $85
In tune with his love for retro fashion, Glover is faithful to Reebok’s classic Club C sneaker. The low-top looks good with anything from striped slacks to bold Hawaiian shirts.
