You Bet It Was Timothée Chalamet Who Won That Bob Dylan Jacket at Auction


You thought the method dressing was over? Uh uh, method dressing is forever, at least for Timothée Chalamet—until the next role-of-a-lifetime comes along, or the parcels of Bob Dylan ephemera pillaged from the online auction houses stop coming through the young actor’s door that is.

Posting to Instagram, the SAG award-winning actor took a moment to shout out the team behind him. “Some of you have been rocking with me for over seven years now,” he wrote, “know how deeply grateful I am…And once it’s seven years plus it isn’t a fad [sic] lol, ur with me for life now.” He tagged a host of collaborators, from his stylist Taylor McNeill to director and photographer Aidan Zamiri and groomer Jamie Taylor. But looking aside from the very sweet caption, what caught the most eagle of eyes in the accompanying pic? The denim patchwork jacket. Strap in.

Back in January, legendary auction house Julien’s ran an expansive catalogue of Bob Dylan memorabilia: “Celebrating Bob Dylan: The Aronowitz Archive & More.” Julien’s hosts an array of artefacts and unique collections from Elvis Presley to Marilyn Monroe, Ringo Starr, Kurt Cobain, and Lady Gaga. This lot featured pieces like a 1983 Fender Japan TL-52 electric guitar owned by Dylan, oil paintings, a signed harmonica, and handwritten lyrics for “Blowin’ in the Wind.”

Lot #55 was a hand embellished and trimmed denim Levi’s jacket, with velvet, lace, and textile patches that Dylan wore in the 1987 movie Hearts of Fire. Dylan wears it in one of the film’s central scenes, as his character Billy Parker punches Rupert Everett’s character James Holt. Fun fact, it’s the film where Dylan utters the line “You know I guess I’ve always known I was never one of them rock ‘n’ roll singers that was gonna win any Nobel prize.” Huh!
