Timothée Chalamet is a sartorial agent of chaos.
It was literally just yesterday when Tana Mongeau popped up on my TikTok for you page to bemoan the rise of skinny jeans among “fashion girlies,” captioning her video, “are the scarves with skulls next be honest.”
Apparently, the answer is yes. At least, according to last night’s Saturday Night Live host and musical guest, Timothée Chalamet. In the early hours of January 26, Chalamet was photographed arriving at the SNL after-party in a peak Gen-Z look, pairing baggy gray jeans with a studded belt, slim black sneakers, a large Yankees jacket, and a backwards cap.
He finished off the look with an obligatory scarf, the accessory he’s favored most while promoting his Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown.
This time, however, his black and white scarf was embellished with a pattern of black skulls, just like the ones millennials scoured the mall for in 2004. Honestly, all Chalamet’s missing are some tighter jeans and a pair of tattered checkered Vans.
Of course, if you were a “fashion girlie” at the time, you probably associate the sheer skull scarf with Alexander McQueen’s spring-summer 2023 collection. Seriously, I can not emphasize the chokehold this scarf had on celebrities between 2004 and 2010.
The skull scarf renaissance may take me a minute to wrap my head around, though Kylie Jenner didn’t seem to mind the blast from the past. According to photos obtained by DeuxMoi, Jenner was right by her Oscar-nominated boyfriend’s side at the SNL after-party, though she chose to battle the NYC cold in a long fur coat, as opposed to a thin skull scarf.
To be fair, the 27-year-old reality star could have ate this trend up during her King Kylie days. Alas, she didn’t embrace that persona until the mid-2010s, though she briefly brought back the teal hair in September 2024. Clearly, it’s not too late!

Okay, I think I’m actually back on board…but can we all just agree to leave the hipster owl pendants in 2011 where they belong?
