Keep Abreast
The Canadian tuxedo has seen a resurgence in recent years, but Pharrell took the look a further step by adding a formal design detail—double-breasted buttons. You don't need to relegate this look to your upper half; opt for a double-breasted skirt and pair with a darker chambray shirt.

Be Bold
Real men wear pink. Still, a slouchy fit will off-set anything too girly.

Statement Shoes
A double-breasted jacket and matching shorts isn't enough. For Pharrell, an outfit begins with the sole. Plus, there was never a colorful or sparkly shoe the singer didn't like.

Short Stack
Who says you can't wear a shorts suit to an award show? To polish up the look, opt for a pair with a longer hemline and pair it with a crop top and tailored blazer.

Tracking It
Even before his collaboration with Adidas, we saw Pharrell practically live in track jackets. For a modern take, opt for more graphic or printed iterations.

High & Low
We've heard of mixing high-end designers with mass retailers, but such an obvious contrast really makes a statement.

Prep Meets Grunge
Pharrell is the king of melding and mashing different genres of music and making it a hit. Clothing is no different. Here, he tops off a school-boy cardigan with a plaid button-up wrapped around his shoulders—prep style. Genius!
SVEE Women's Sheer Panel Cardigan, $185, available at Amazon
Neck to Neck
Recently, Pharrell is never without his custom-made Chanel chain. He actually had it recast in gold with jade and large freshwater pearls. Layered, classic and eye-catching—it's the trendsetter's version of rapper chains.
Feathered Soul Seed Pearl Long Necklace, $285, available at Barneys
Stunning Sunnies
Pharrell's uniform pretty much consists of graphic sweatshirts, beaded necklaces and a high-crown hat. But never forget the finishing touch: shapely sunglasses. The producer loves his round Chanel sunnies, but cat-eye iterations add a little more class to a more casual ensemble.
