There is no explanation, however, for why wedding officiant and reception emcee Trevor is wearing a Nudie suit, except that he’s That Guy.
The one who’s so darn confident and hip that he can easily rock the style made famous by 1960s-era country singers (and revived by the likes of Post Malone and Diplo) and the reaction is, “Of course, because Trevor.”
Siara and director Max Barbakow based the character, played by Australian actor Chris Pang, on a real-life wedding guest they had encountered and, Wilkes added, “I knew the type of people that were going to be at that wedding. OK, I know that this is an eclectic, very hip [guy], they either live in Brooklyn and are flying in, or they live in [the famously hipster L.A. neighborhoods of] Silver Lake or Echo Park… I just know these people. I’m friends with these people. I would have attended this wedding.”
Wilkes called it a “dream” getting the chance to shop for Nudie suits, and this one came from Fort Lonesome, which makes custom pieces. “Often times, they’re for grooms,” she said. “Grooms or musicians.”
