How to Dress Like Our Modern Elvis: Austin Butler

There’s something about Austin Butler that feels effortlessly iconic. Maybe it’s the quiet confidence, the way he makes even the simplest outfit feel intentional. Or maybe it’s the lingering Elvis energy he carried off-screen and into real life. Whatever it is, Austin Butler doesn’t just wear clothes, he inhabits them.

If Elvis were reborn in 2025, he wouldn’t be dripping in rhinestones every day. He’d be understated, a little broody, and very, very well dressed like our Austin Butler. 

Why We Can’t Get Enough of Austin Butler

Austin’s career arc is part of the appeal. From years of grinding in smaller roles to fully disappearing into Elvis Presley, and then choosing layered, challenging projects after, that kind of commitment shows up in his style too. He dresses like someone who knows who he is now. No noise, no overthinking. Just timeless pieces, worn with ease.

If Elvis were reborn in 2025, he wouldn’t be dripping in rhinestones every day. He’d be understated, a little broody, and very, very well dressed like our Austin Butler. Here are five Austin Butler–inspired looks you can wear right now.
