This year, the men in Hollywood collectively decided that the Oscars were the perfect place to raid the jewellery box, and we love it. A well-placed brooch makes a fashion statement. It’s a tiny, bedazzled whisper that says, “I know what I’m doing.” And this year, the stars came armed with all manner of glittering lapel candy, from symbolic reptiles to straight-up sprays of diamonds.

Jeff Goldblum:

When Jeff Goldblum hits the carpet, you know he’s bringing something extra. This year, the Wicked star embraced his inner Wizard of Oz, accessorizing with a floral brooch that tied into the green and purple accents of Cynthia Erivo’s gown. Add in his signature tinted glasses, a patterned shirt, and a lavender scarf, and you’ve got yet another Goldblum masterclass in ‘weird but wonderful’ menswear. Also, Wicked director Jon M. Chu joined in the fun with monkey cuff links.

Adrien Brody:

Best Actor winner Adrien Brody wore an oversized brooch worn on the side of his right lapel. Brody is a brooch lover, having sported brooches before they were back in fashion, including earlier this year at the Golden Globes.

Joe Alwyn:

Taylor Swift's ex-beau may not have gone for reptilian glam or floral exuberance, but he still brought a brooch to the party. His traditional black suit got an upgrade with a sleek, simple breastpin. Think of it as the starter brooch for men who aren’t quite ready to embrace the full sparkle just yet.

Colman Domingo:

Some men go big, others go classic. Oscar nominee Colman Domingo (nominated for Sing Sing) fell into the latter camp, pairing his rich Valentino red jacket with a simple gold ribbon brooch. Understated, elegant, and exactly what you’d expect from a man who always looks like he smells expensive.

Clément Ducol:

French instrumentalist Clément Ducol decided that while tuxedos may be predictable, diamonds never are. The sheer elegance of the Oscar winner's diamond brooch turned his look from “classic” to “can’t-stop-staring.” Fun fact: diamonds sparkle 20% more when attached to a musician who looks like he just composed something emotionally devastating.

Sterling K. Brown:

The actor understands the power of a clean white tux. But even the crispest tux needs a little something extra, and that “something” came in the form of a tiny, perfectly placed white gold brooch.

Giancarlo Esposito:

The seasoned actor's contrast-lapel tux was already a winner, but the V-shaped brooch gave it an extra touch of vintage sophistication. Turns out, brooches are the ultimate accessory for men who look like they could run a glamorous underground speakeasy.

Kit Connor:

If the Oscars had an award for ‘Best Use of Fabric in a Jacket,’ Kit Connor would have taken it home. The Heartstopper actor’s exaggerated Giuliva Heritage lapels were practically a red carpet landmark. Throw in a monochrome tie, a bold brooch, and a Tag Heuer Monaco watch, and you’ve got a look that’s equal parts old Hollywood and a little bit villainous.

Giancarlo Esposito:

The seasoned actor's contrast-lapel tux was already a winner, but the V-shaped brooch gave it an extra touch of vintage sophistication. Turns out, brooches are the ultimate accessory for men who look like they could run a glamorous underground speakeasy.

Kieran Culkin and Robert Downey Jr.: Brooch Buddies

The brooch bonanza didn’t stop at the carpet. When Kieran Culkin stepped on stage to collect his Best Supporting Actor trophy for A Real Pain, he did so with a brooch proudly pinned to his lapel. Presenter Robert Downey Jr., never one to let someone outshine him, also sported a breastpin, proving that even winners need a little sparkle. As the night went on, brooches continued to pop up, dazzling under the stage lights.

How to Wear a Brooch Like a Movie Star:

If you’re ready to jump on the trend, we’ve got you covered.

Pick Your Side – Traditionally, men wear brooches on the left lapel, but fashion is lawless now. Right side, or centred on the tie... go wild.

Size Matters – If you’re just starting out, keep it subtle. If you’re feeling bold, go big. But maybe don’t attach a full-sized beetle to your suit on the first try.

Coordinate with Your Outfit – Match metals with your watch or cufflinks. If you’re feeling extra, let your brooch contrast beautifully with your suit fabric.

The Theme Approach – Taking notes from Jeff Goldblum? Tie your brooch into the event theme, your co-star’s outfit, or just a completely random aesthetic you like.

Confidence is Key – The real secret to pulling off a brooch? Wear it like you know you look good. Because if Kieran Culkin can accept an Oscar in one, you can absolutely wear one to dinner.
