Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams continued to exhibit uncanny off-screen compatibility at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party last night, where the Heated Rivalry boys both showed up on the carpet rocking a lightly veiled nip. Per Williams’s stylist, Anastasia Walker, their sartorial synergy was unintentional.
“Me and [James Yardley] didn’t plan this lol,” Walker wrote in an Instagram story, tagging Yardley, who is Storrie’s stylist. A heated coincidence, if you will.
In the three and a half months since the steamy hockey drama landed on HBO, its stars have become the toast of the fashion world. Storrie quickly inked exclusive deals with Saint Laurent and Tiffany & Co. (“I know everyone is fighting over him. And if you fight, I take,” Saint Laurent designer Anthony Vaccarello cheekily told GQ of the signing), while Williams walked in a Dsquared2 show and then became a “friend of the house” at Balenciaga, starring in the brand’s latest campaign. The two, appropriately, were wearing their respective brands to the post-Oscars festivities last night.
On his end, Storrie wore a chocolatey, diaphanous Saint Laurent turtleneck tucked into a pair of high-waisted trousers, his musclebound torso on full display. He adorned the look with a chunky chain necklace from Tiffany & Co. as well as pieces from the brand’s Elsa Peretti collection. He also carried a fur stole in his arm, which gave the look a whiff of Ilya Rozanov swagger, the flashy, bisexual Russian hockey player he plays on Heated Rivalry.
Williams’s translucent number, on the other hand, was a pleated, sleeveless tulle top with a cascading train from Balenciaga, which he also wore tucked into dark trousers. He accessorized with a pair of dangly earrings and a delicate serpent bracelet, courtesy of Bvlgari, with whom he also has a deal. Earlier in the evening, Williams wore a more buttoned-up combination of Balenciaga and Bvlgari to the Academy Awards ceremony, where he attended as a guest.
At the Vanity Fair party, Williams also posed on the carpet with his girlfriend, tattoo artist Katelyn Rose Larson, who wore a sheer cut-out lace dress of her own. A triad of translucent ensembles? Our Stanley Cup runneth over.
