Jacob Elordi attended a press conference for “Priscilla” during the 61st New York Film Festival held in New York today. The Australian thespian was joined by his co-star Cailee Spaeny who plays Priscilla Presley in the film.
Accompanied by dark brown ankle socks, Elordi styled a pair of black patent leather loafers. The slip-on style included rounded toes with textural glossy patent leather uppers and short stacked block heels that offered “The Kissing Booth” star a subtle boost in height. The casual and sleek pair offered Elordi’s look a preppy touch, further acting to dress up his ensemble. Loafers make for the perfect addition to any ensemble, especially during the fall.

Unlike leather dress shoes, loafers are a more casual footwear choice, perfect for any occasion including attending high-profile red carpet events. The slip-on style is commonplace in many celebrities’ wardrobes, from British thespians to K-Pop idols. What separates loafers from dress shoes is their lack of lace-up closures in favor of slip-on silhouettes that are easier to put on.

Keeping it casual, the “Saltburn” star was outfitted in a white and black pinstriped button-down shirt in an oversized billowing style. The collared t-shirt was tucked into black tailored and pleated trousers which were belted. Elordi has been hailed a style icon in the menswear world, mainly for his effortless and sophisticated fashion choices.
