Whether you’re a male or not, Loki has a special place in every Marvel fan’s heart. The new TV series spin-off, Loki (2021), brought to you by Disney+, gives viewers a glimpse of the events after the critically acclaimed Avengers: Endgame. It also gives us a better glimpse of Loki’s character and persona.
In tribute to our Marvel fanatics out there, here is a fun Loki-inspired style guide that will make you look and feel like the God of Mischief himself. And if you’re lucky enough, this might land you on a dinner date.
Wardrobe
Loki is often seen wearing his god-suit or a classic suit and tie that makes him look like a distinguished gentleman. You could also style yourself accordingly! Loki tends to go with dark colors, so an all-black suit could be the first option. You could also experiment with dark greens, such as a dark green button-down shirt, some black dress pants, and dark brown dress shoes. Remember, Loki is all about looking distinguished and gentlemanly despite the title of being the God of Mischief.
Another fun way of styling yourself with the Loki aesthetic is not only by wearing dark colors. It could also be in the form of dressing in leather. Your leather jacket can finally be put to use again. Styling yourself would be a leather jacket, a plain gray shirt, some black slacks, and a good pair of black dress shoes. You could also opt to add accessories like a silver watch or a gold chain necklace.
For a more casual look, as seen in the 2021 Loki spin-off, Loki is often dressed like a captive. Complete with the uniform and the iconic “Variant” jacket. Styling yourself in the same way as 2021 Loki, you need to use all the browns in your wardrobe. Again, Loki likes to dress like a distinguished gentleman. So, a brown blazer, a white button-down shirt, with a brown checkered tie would do for the upper half. For the lower half of your outfit, matching slacks and some brown oxfords is the way to go.
At this point, you may have observed a trend in the way Loki dresses, and yes, you’re right. It’s all about looking bold and looking charismatic. Bold in the sense that dressing up in a smart-casual way and experimenting with different dark colors together can enhance the way you look and evokes the aura of dominance. Charismatic in the sense that no man can ever go wrong with a nicely fitted suit or a button-down shirt.
To bring out the Loki effect, of course, you must be confident in yourself as well. The God of Mischief is known to exude a great amount of confidence. So do so as well! Your confidence can do wonders in the way you wear your outfit.
Hair
Loki is known to have long black locks. He often wears it swept back, with the rest of his hair falling back. Now, if you already have long hair or plan on growing it out, here are some things you should invest in. A lot of men underestimate a good haircare routine, and honestly, you shouldn’t. Proper hair care makes your hair look like a model’s and promotes hair growth and hair strength.
So if you want your long locks to look great, you must invest in a good shampoo and conditioner and a quality hairbrush to keep your hair clean and detangled. As a guy, you don’t need a lot of fancy gear to keep your hair looking flawless, but investing in quality is never a bad thing. Sulfate-free shampoos are the ones you should look for, as well as those that have keratin or natural ingredients like tea tree oil.
For men with facial hair, make sure it’s well-kept and trimmed so that it does not look unruly. Remember, it’s all about looking sleek!
You can style your hair however you want. Again, you can never go wrong with healthy well-kept hair. The God of Mischief himself would agree to this.
Accessories
You don’t see Loki wear accessories unless he’s in his god-suit. But, you can still incorporate them in your look in the form of either brooches, pins, watches, or a simple silver/gold necklace. Don’t be afraid to mix and match!
Men’s fashion is often regarded as bland because of how repetitive it can become. But people fail to consider that some styles are timeless and can never go out of style no matter how many times you’ve seen them. Loki’s fashion sense is in the same way. Sleek, simple, yet bold. Again, don’t be afraid to experiment, and of course, wear your style in confidence.
