Jacob Elordi, with a fresh Bottega Veneta brand ambassadorship under his intrecciato-woven belt, is dressing to impress these days. In late September, the Australian actor attended the Italian luxury label’s runway show at Milan Fashion Week. Sitting in the front row, he donned a speckled gray cardigan, flowy cream-toned trousers, and a cherry-red leather tote fastened with a dog-shaped charm.
Then, on Wednesday evening, the actor reappeared in Italy, this time to attend a Bottega Veneta dinner in Venice. For the evening, Elordi wore a boxy navy grain de poudre shirt and matching trousers, espresso-brown leather loafers, and an intrecciato belt. He accessorized with a chain charm necklace and a green “Saint Natalie Wood” ballcap from fellow actor James Franco’s streetwear label Paly Hollywood, which is a brand Elordi wears frequently—including when he hosted Saturday Night Live earlier this year. He seems particularly fond of the brand’s “James Dean Death Cult” hat, a piece that has already become a trendy signifer among young Hollywood types.
Elsewhere in northern Italy, the Saltburn star has been vacationing with girlfriend Olivia Jade Giannulli—the daughter of actress Lori Loughlin and designer Mossimo Giannulli—and her family around the shores of Venice and Sardinia. Per paparazzi photos, the couple’s itinerary has included relaxing on yacht decks, drinking Champagne from the bottle, and enjoying 20th-century literature. As they soaked up the final days of “Book Guy Summer” (a phenomenon inadvertently fueled by Elordi himself), the actor was seen reading Jean Cocteau’s The Art of Cinema poolside. Meanwhile, Olivia Jade’s beach read appears to be Sex and Rage by Eve Babtiz.
