Joe Jonas Goes Downtown | GQ

The likelihood tree that grows out of juvenile stardom is usually a gnarly one, however Joe Jonas—former boy band heartthrob, present man band (?) heartthrob slash well-heeled man-about-town—appears to have discovered himself an excellent department. Joe and his spouse, actress Sophie Turner, predict their second baby. He’s bought new music on the horizon along with his non-Brothers band, DNCE.

In the future, he’s strolling round in a pair of excellent blue denims, a walnut-brown work jacket, and a cheeky Joe’s Diner tee (shoutout Lee, Massachusetts!); then, he’s in a knit Emily Daybreak Lengthy bucket hat, moto jacket, and studded carpenter pants. Certainly, the person is a pants virtuoso, sporting a seemingly infinite provide of just-embellished-enough denim: cosy classic pairs, double-knees galore. Add in some vaguely greaser-style hair and tinted Odessa 1919 shades, and he’s good to go.

Actually, in keeping with Sophie, Joe would possibly even be making an attempt too arduous: “He surprisingly places in a bit of bit extra effort than me,” Turner advised Vogue final yr. “He’s all the time embraced excessive trend and dressing up. I assumed it was psychotic how he would put on denims in the course of the pandemic, whereas we had been simply sitting at dwelling. I used to be like, What sort of serial killer does that?”

In that sense, Jonas, like actor Ryan Reynolds, is an efficient instance of movie star daytime dressing: what well-known folks put on after they’re dressed up for the road, not the pink carpet. In any case, the digicam is all the time watching.
