Tay leans into colour theory
Orange isn’t the easiest hue to work with, but Tay demonstrated in May that no matter how “difficult” a colour might be to pair, if it is worn with its complementing colour—the directly opposing shade on a colour wheel—which for orange is blue, an outfit is theoretically bound to look great.
Tay leant into this colour theory by sprinkling shades of orange throughout his ensemble, including contrasting his T-shirt and buttoned-up shirt and wearing sneakers with similarly coloured details, for a cohesive look.
Tay loves to elevate basics
While timeless items such as anorak jackets and denim jeans always work, you can elevate your look by opting for unique fabrics and standout silhouettes. This month, Tay sported a suede anorak which gave the sporty jacket a plushier silhouette, as well as wide-legged jeans with a striking turn-up details.
Tay shows colourful suits can be subtle
A colourful suit is a surefire way to make a stylish impression and, contrary to popular belief, can be executed in a subtle and chic way. The key is to choose the harmonious shades that are more on the muted side. In April, Tay wore a pale yellow suit from Vanillin Studios with a deep aubergine shirt, which are shades so closely related to beige and navy that the concept totally works.
Double denim always work
Denim-on-denim, also known as a Canadian tuxedo, is a timeless combination that Tay has worn on a number of occasions. At the Loewe spring-summer 2025 show in June, the Thai star—who is a brand ambassador for the maison—wore an oversized jacket and jeans set with logo patches on the elbows and knees. He completed the outfit with chunky, rounded trainers for a casual element amidst the utilitarian feel of the look.
When in doubt, match
Best friends don’t copy, they match, and that’s exactly what Tay and his fellow actor Korapat “Nanon” Kirdpan did this week. The pair donned light-wash blue jeans, white graphic T-shirts, chunky sunglasses and beige jackets from Ami Paris to walk around London.
