Robert Pattinson went Full Zoolander at the Berlinale ‘City of Z’ premiere

67th International Berlin Film Festival (Berlinale) - 'The Lost City of Z' - Premiere

I’m honestly still laughing about those Robert Pattinson photos from the Berlin Film Festival yesterday. Rob was in Berlin to promote The Lost City of Z with Sienna Miller and Charlie Hunnam. Rob is the face of Dior Homme, and I guess Dior sent him everything from their latest collection and Rob was like, “Should I really wear this cropped half-zip turtle-cardigan at the photocall? It looks like something Kim Kardashian would wear.” And Dior was like, “Just wear it and pout, bitch.” And so that’s what he did at the Berlin photocall.

Hilariously, Robert Pattinson had to wear even more Dior Homme to the big premiere. And my God, Dior is really making him WERK for that money. Sparkles has gone Full Zoolander. I can’t even see past the coat to really dissect this look. It’s just… so amazing. I think his pants are tucked into his boots? And I think the midnight-blue turtleneck is supposed to coordinate exactly with the blue tufts of fur on the coat.

Basically, I love that Rob wore head-to-toe Dior Homme and I love that Charlie Hunnam’s face is all “Good God, I have to pose beside him while he’s wearing that?!?” Charlie’s wearing Prada, btw. And Sienna Miller also wore Dior, like Sparkles. Her dress would be a lot cuter without the “CHRISTIAN DIOR” label around the waist.

    Is Pattinson trolling us with that cropped trouser/boot combo? He looks ridiculous.

    • Crox says:

      He’s trolling. A turtleneck, a fancy jacket, a coat made of Remus Lupin’s corpse and those short pants. This cannot NOT be trolling.

    • SM says:

      Including the look on his face. IT probably bothers me the most. He looks like he was practising for HOURS. general my vibe is that both Charlie and Rob are ready to hustle to no end, even if that means selling their own mothers for this movie. Sienna is probably just happy she did not end up on the editing room floor.

    • Rice says:

      The real question is whether he can do a left turn.

    • Lana says:

      No, he’s fashion forward, and Dior didn’t force him to wear anything, it was his choice. Honestly, this constant carping about a grown man who wears something other than a dull blue suit is what’s hysterical.

      This is 2017, not 1917. Try to catch up with the real world. As for Charlie, he’s the one who wears what he’s told. Boring. He also knew the crowds were there to see Rob. When Charlie tried to sign autographs, he ended up signing on the BACK of pics of Rob’s that the fangirls brought.

      Y’all sound like you’re still reading 1964 copies of Ladies Home Journal instead of Tom & Lorenzo, who loved both Rob’s looks.

      • kennedy says:

        @Lana – I can’t tell… do you love R Patz or do you love R Patz?

        They both have fans. People were screaming both names. Stop trying to play this off as the Rob show. There were even James Gray fans because ya know… he is a pretty darn great director!

        And just because T&L loved Rob’s look doesn’t mean everyone else will. I think it’s fug dot com and he doesn’t pull it off. It’s very “me me me” and that’s not the vibe I’ve ever got from him. He doesn’t have the natural swag to pull off this look and that’s OK. It’s not him nor does it have to be.

      • Lana says:

        Well I don’t know what you do for a living, but Tom & Lorenzo and Vogue both loved Rob’s look, and they get paid for their opinions.

        It’s not very “me me me,” it’s simply more stylish than most dull men’s clothing. I heard shouts for Charlie, but Rob is the one who spent a half an hour with the fans, signing autographs and posing for pics. The photographers at the press conference said they hadn’t seen so many assembled at Berlin for a long time.

        It was the Rob show, as is every premiere he attends. He has natural charisma and continues to draw crowds, even without making mainstream films. Too bad some try to diminish him and carp about non-existent issues. As for James Gray, every director is happy when one of the stars of their film gets attention. It reflects back on the film in a good way.

      • Clare says:

        Hahahaha oooookay….but I still think his trouser and boot combo still looks ridiculous

      • Clare says:

        Hahahaha oooookay….but I still think his trouser and boot combo still looks ridiculous.

        As far as people who are ‘paid for their opinions’ on fashion are concerned…they’re still putting people in black face and geisha costumes in magazines, so you’ll forgive me if I don’t take their opinions as scripture

      • delorb says:

        @Lana, I agree. I think it looks good on him. This look tells me he’s just like fka Twigs when it comes to music and now clothes. Birds of a feather and all that.

    • Antonym says:

      Apparently cropped pants are in for dudes. I’ve seen them on loads of younger guys. I’m not into it (yet), but I’m old so maybe it’ll take me awhile to warm up to the trend – or maybe the trend won’t catch on further (fingers crossed).

  2. Tata says:

    Sparkles is sparkling blue steel! Lol

    Charlie hunnam slimmed down and looks just like he did on the Judd Apatow tv show Undeclared, when he played a semi-dorky college kid.

    • Adrien says:

      Charlie Hunnam in Queer as Folk was so dreamy. He was so cute in that movie he did with Katie Holmes. He is still hot now but his facial hair reminds me so much of Spencer Pratt.

    • Adrien says:

      Berlinale is not an event to do those fashiony things (hear me, Maggie Gyllenhaal). Do that in Cannes or Venice or Sundance if you will. Berlinale is a smaller festival. It is not really a happenings fest, not a place/event for scenesters.

      • ElbaQ says:

        Actually the Germans appreciate originality big time… it’s not like he put a paper bag on his face like Shia.

      • Mia4S says:

        Berlinale definitely comes across as the more “serious artist” festival with lots of investors and business types. But hey, it’s Berlin: A Sprockets tribute makes some sense.

    • Bridget says:

      He was never even semi-dorky on Undeclared. He was the hot guy with the accent!

  3. mia girl says:

    You know what? I’m kinda digging Pattinson’s whole look from a fashion standpoint. At least it’s interesting. Will certainly grab some attention bc well-known male actors rarely take any kind of fashion risk on the red carpet.

    By comparison, kinda makes Hunnam look like a banker (although I wish my banker looked like that ha!)

    • eev says:

      I have to agree. I find it charming and cool that he’s taking a risk and doing something different than the regular suit. Not saying it looks fabulous, but I still love it.

    • RuddyZooKeeper says:

      Their side-by-side photo puts me in mind of a comical James Bond / Lead Villain. I can even hear their respective ridiculous character accents. I love this picture!

    • Another Anne says:

      I agree. He has a sense of humor about it. Someone asked him about the coat, and he said something to the effect of “I thought I’d dress like a gorilla”.

      Why do people want all the male starts to dress like an accountant? I don’t see anything wrong with having a little fun with the appearances, and as somebody pointed out earlier, it draws attention to your movie.

    • Olenna says:

      Ditto, and I’m liking it for the fuk all ya’ll vibe he’s projecting.

  4. Rhiley says:

    He looks like Sprockets to me… just needs to the corny glasses.

  5. Jenns says:

    Dear Rob,

    STOP IT! LOL!

  6. AfricanBoy says:

    LMAO Pattinson’s outfit.

  7. Mia4S says:

    Never go full Zoolander! 😂 Seriously did he lose a bet? Sprockets!!

    His costars look a bit dull next to that to be honest. No fabulousness..ness. 😉

  8. PunkyMomma says:

    Props to ✨Sparkles✨ for opening up himself to never-ending, delicious snark. Me thinks he was aware of the reaction(s) this look would conjure up, and he went for it. Any kind of press is good press . . .

  9. Suzie says:

    The hair doesn’t do anything for him. I much prefer when he has a disheveled look.
    Charlie is bae though.

  10. Shambles says:

    Lolololololol….. lololololol

    I still would.

  11. Slowsnow says:

    And this is why men aren’t adventurous with their clothes *sigh*.
    Come on now, he looks fantastic and I dare say I would wear what he’s wearing too. Good for the ladies and the gents.

    • Mimi says:

      I agree. The face he’s giving is a bit much, though. 😉

    • Gina says:

      Oh yes, the other two look so dull next to him… I was disappointed in his previous looks (like his Met Gala look last year) because it seemed he started playing it safe post-Twilight, I was wondering if he’s so unwilling to be in spotlight that he was staying away from any fashion statements – and BAM… I got these gems from him at Berlinale, I’m so happy he’s back to his quirky self.

  12. HeidiM says:

    So we’ve gone from see-thru dresses with Granny panties underneath to See-thru with men’s boxer briefs? Make it stop!

    • nem says:

      Dior is nostalgic of porno chic logomania crazy galliano era big money.
      and the new stylist is giving them what they want.it’s hideous.poor Sienna

  13. ell says:

    this is all very funny because of his face and kaiser’s post, but i don’t find the outfit bad at all? it’s nice to see men pulling their weight when it comes to fashion, most actors dress so basic on the red carpet. men should be able to experiment with fashion, too.

  14. alfaQ says:

    Did his girlfriend dress him?

  15. EscapedConvent says:

    Some of you are seeing Sprockets’ Dieter too?! Oh good, because I thought it might be too long ago to reference. Pattinson’s expressions are totally Dieter.

    That little half-sweater, though. This must be a prank by Dior. Yet, it works on him. It’s a very ~disturrrrbing~ turtle sweater.

    • Mia4S says:

      Oh all I can see is Dieter. It’s all the face! The outfit would not be so bad but with that hair and face?!? Touch my monkey! 😂

    • Peeking in says:

      I quite like the little sweater and button down shirt, the cropped pants on the other hand, needs to die.

  16. OSTONE says:

    I love Robert Pattinson! Even if he looks dumb, he is cute and came to play!

  17. detritus says:

    Ugh.
    Dior is doing that obnoxious thing Moschino does.
    Stop labelling your crap with what looks like the straps to hold delicates on clothing hangers.

    If your audience doesn’t know its Dior, because its poorly made or ugly, well then fix that instead of affixing an ugly label. I want art and design, not advertisement and conspicuous consumption.

    • nem says:

      dior executive people are in it for the money.only for the money.they sold away book inspiration archives from galliano era. it’s crazy

  18. Pip says:

    He doesn’t look as if he’d be much fun to hang out with, does he … Does he take himself just a tad too seriously?

    • Angela says:

      There are tons of pics from Berlinale where he’s smiling and playful… even German press pointed out that it’s the first time he was so relaxed and open as opposed to looking super stressed in previous years.

    • Another Anne says:

      On the contrary, he’s a bit of a goof. He’s usually laughing and joking with everyone, and making self deprecating jokes.

  19. ash says:

    after years of playing coy, hipster, and shy and o so private and cooped up in a hotel watching movies ::tears::…being cheated on and trying to AGAIN play coy and shy on the 2nd try at the relationship…. he and Kristin are really being their true authentic selves, party goers, pap walkers, dating life rampant, hustling movies…. like all the ish they claimed not to be and im here for this…. granted they did grow up

    • J. says:

      Are you for real? We haven’t seen him for a long time, he’s one of the most lowkey celebrity and his romantic life goes behind closed door – we’ve got absolutely nothing to gossip about it… and now he’s promoting his movie at a festival and put some fashionable yet risky clothes on from the fashion house he’s represented for years – why are you so bitter????

      • ash says:

        @J are you a twihard fan… how am I bitter?? LOL

        i actually like seeing him and kristin hustle movies AND just seem human….instead of feeding the public on this image of anti-celebrity not wanting to be famous or an actor….

        @J if you can read i said I AM HERE FOR THIS; and then GRANTED THEY DID GROW UP

    • Lana says:

      Please stop trying to connect Rob to that trainwreck he used to co-star with. He’s avoided her for several years, he’s engaged and has a totally different career path. He never “played” anything, he simply said upfront that he would never sell his personal life and he stuck to it. He’s not the one who likes to “keep ’em guessing.” Stewart is the game player.

      Rob keeps his private life private, period. He’s not a “pap walker,” either. Let me know when he drags his fiancee to the same coffee shop 43 times in an 8 week period, the way KS did with Alicia — she was unemployed back then, and desperately looking for someone to offer her a script.

      Rob is not out of work, never has been, since 2008. He doesn’t need to have the paps on speed dial, he has a career and a flourishing relationship. I’m so sick of KS fans still trying to compare the two. There’s never been any comparison.

  20. cindy says:

    Dior- “just wear it and pout, bitch!”
    Kaiser, I think I love you……..LOLOLOL

  21. Joanne says:

    Remember when he shaved a landing strip on the back of his head and attended a few high profile events like that?

  22. Nibbi says:

    oh wow… i normally love sparkles, but damn, the pout !! the sucked-in cheeks ! the pout !!!
    full-on Zoolander indeed !!
    if he was doing this on purpose i’d love him all the more, but… i don’t think he is :'(
    oh so ridic
    frankly i wonder if the smug-i’m-so-fashiony thing is rubbing off from his chick?
    cuz damn charlie hunnam in his gorgeous suit wins here. a gorgeous suit always wins.

  23. Tig says:

    I just think his facial structure is amazing- those eyes and cheekbones! I just wish he’d grow his hair out again.
    Re this outfit- I like the coat and the dark navy color. I could see the tucked in pants in to the boots as a bit of a homage to the costuming of the movie, but cropped-?? C’mon even Raffa can’t pull that off!😃.
    I like the print of Siena’s dress, but that name waistband?? Too lazy, but wasn’t Kate Hudson in a similarly “branded” outfit at the GGs? They need to stop it STAT!!

  24. Angela says:

    His pants are not tucked in his boots, they’re just short, lol

  25. Shijel says:

    …..I love it. What are the chances that he knows exactly how ridiculous it and is just having the zoolander time of his life?

    I mean, sure, it’s for money, but it’s so outrageous I just can’t see someone with his humour not milking it for fun (and I usually don’t really like him)

  26. hmmm says:

    Charlie Hunnam looks very nice and not like a fashion victim.

    • nem says:

      sparkles needs that fashion money now twilight is finished….
      yes hunnam is fine but his wet shirt photos are good too

  27. Bridget says:

    HOW DID I MISS YESTERDAY’S CARDIGAN?!?!?!

    • Thandie says:

      Charlie talking about Rob at the premiere “You can’t compete with that sort of beauty” AHAHAHAHAHAH. It’s a big trolling conspiracy!
      P.S. It wasn’t for you, Bridget, I just posted it wrong.

    • nem says:

      too much news! it was brilliant

  28. kennedy says:

    How is this post focused on Rob what’s his face when CHARLIE GORGEOUS HUNNAM IS THERE! Dear god, he is gorgeous. I cannot with that face and hair and bod-day. He is perfect. Sienna Miller looks gorg too. I love her dress and I want her and Charlie to mate and make perfect, blonde babies.

    • ChildofGod says:

      Because Charlie was the boring one in his two similar suits both at the photocall and the premiere.

  29. Hippie says:

    Perhaps RP is trying to catch up with his very original stylish extreme fashion conscious girlfriend, FKA Twigs, besides being a clothes pony for Dior, of course.

  30. A. Key says:

    These pictures are giving me life!!

  31. edith says:

    he is so on trend u guys u have no idea and I’m LIVING for it!!!

    (but lets be real tho, this is standard hipster wear you see every art student in germany look like that tbh and i’m not surprised by him wearing something like that since he is the biggest hipster with the coolest girlfriend in the world)

    • nem says:

      now it makes sense.
      but it’s funny as dior is such luxury brand.
      it’s about excess money indecence show from the beginning.goofy hipsteria trend is risky bet

  32. dana says:

    Nah i think Rob picked this look, and i think he’s working this look. But i can’t see past the hair which TURNS me on.
