Something I’ve noticed and that you may have too: “Date-night dressing” isn’t really a thing anymore, is it? People just wear whatever they want, and getting all dressed up for an evening with your significant other is a choice rather than an expectation. Gracie Abrams and Paul Mescal, who are in the running for the coolest couple on the planet, are the perfect example of this observation.

While out in London last night to attend a screening of a new Paul McCartney documentary (fitting for Mescal, who’s currently portraying him in an upcoming biopic), both Abrams and Mescal wore cool, casual outfits that are a departure from what one used to consider a “date-night outfit”. Abrams wore an oversized The Row coat over a V-neck sweater and button-down shirt, which she paired with baggy dark-wash jeans and simple The Row leather flats. She accessorized the look with a baseball cap and an argyle scarf draped over her head bonnet-style. Mescal wore a perfectly coordinated look, consisting of a grey coat over a blue sweater, washed-black jeans, and black Adidas sneakers. And yes, also a baseball cap. You can’t help but love these two and their perfectly coordinated anti-date-night date-night looks. Keep scrolling to see them for yourself and to shop Abrams’ look.
