How Dwayne Johnson Sharpened His Style From Baggy Suits to Tailored Tuxedos and Sleek Shoes Over The Years

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson‘s claim to fame was his beginnings in WWE wrestling. The athlete-turned-actor is now a fixture at movie premieres and red carpet events. Johnson has a suave sense of style and can be spotted wearing tailored suits and fitted collared shirts, all complete with sleek shoes. The actor isn’t afraid of colors or prints as he has experimented with florals and metallics over the years. Johnson’s fashion silhouettes have evolved from the baggy 2000s trend to classically tailored in more recent years.

In 2005, the Under Armour collaborator was photographed leaving lunch at The Ivy in Beverly Hills, Calif., wearing classic blue jeans and a white T-shirt emblazoned with “Bounty Hunter” in red print. Johnson also wore red sunglasses and brown flip flops.

“The Rock” cleaned up nicely at the CinemaCon Awards on April 23, 2012 in Las Vegas. Johnson’s outfit included a beige suit with a crisp white button down and dark brown Chelsea boots.

Johnson started to venture into the more tailored silhouettes with his 2017 Academy Awards look. The midnight blue velvet blazer featured black satin trim to match his satin bowtie. He finished the outfit with black patent leather dress shoes.

The actor headed to “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” on July 11, 2018 in sharp style. Johnson wore a black and white floral print top with black jeans. His colored striped socks were a fun contrast to his white leather sneakers.

The family actor went bold with his fashion choice in a floral metallic suit at the premiere of his movie “Jumanji” on Dec. 9, 2019. The Dolce & Gabbana tailored suit had a sky blue base with shiny gold flowers. Johnson kept the suit a little casual with an undone button down and paired the look with black dress shoes.

Sticking with blue prints, Johnson wore a navy and light blue striped top to “Good Morning America” on July 31, 2019. He paired the Todd Snyder collared shirt with blue trousers and brown leather loafers.

The actor attended the movie premiere of “Jungle Cruise” in a neutral summer look on July 24, 2021. Johnson paired cream slacks with a nude sweater vest over a matching collar shirt. For added depth, he wore black loafers and a skinny black belt.
