Apart from his extravagant blazer, he wore a white button-down along with a black tie. The look was completed with a pair of classy black flared trousers and matching shoes. He further spoke to Vogue while talking about the connection between his outfit and the event's theme. Pharrell said:

"To me, dandyism is about intentionality—a sport of getting dressed. It’s not just about dressing well; it’s about using style as a form of self-expression and freedom. Pearls have become a part of that for me, which is why I created a pearl double-breasted jacket for this look."
