Let it be known: Colman Domingo does not walk—he glides. And on a humid June afternoon in New York City, the Sing Sing star didn’t just arrive at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert—he made a statement so luminous, it might as well have been broadcast in Technicolor.
Dressed in a dreamy, sorbet-hued three-piece suit, Domingo offered a poetic answer to summer dressing that was less business casual, more runway Renaissance. The star emerged in a whisper-light creamy peach ensemble, equal parts breezy and tailored, and entirely unforgettable. This was not your grandfather’s summer suit. This was radical softness with a wink of swagger.
Let’s deconstruct the brilliance.
The Fit: A Ballet of Fluid Masculinity
Domingo’s look began with the foundation of modern elegance: a sharp peach blazer, paired not with trousers, but tailored long shorts—a silhouette that balanced crisp sophistication with nonchalant ease. Underneath, a billowy blouse, casually unbuttoned to reveal a bold, plunging neckline that whispered ‘70s disco but in the voice of 2025.
Then came the twist: a matching peach tie, draped loosely around his neck—untied, unfussy, and gloriously suggestive of a man who knows that the rules don’t apply when you’re writing them yourself.
The Accessories: Drama in the Details
Domingo leaned into his now-signature fusion of masculine and femme energy, grounding the pastel confection with beige suede booties, complete with wooden block heels, and white socks that peeked out just enough to feel styled, not studied. Around his shoulder, a Valentino Garavani Vain crossbody in cream with a gleaming gold chain—because of course.
Gold hoops, a chunky chain, a silver timepiece, and aviator shades completed the look, a masterclass in mixing metals that felt less rebellious and more inevitable. When you radiate this much confidence, why choose between gold and silver?
The Moment(s)
Not content with just one sartorial triumph, Domingo gave the TikTok generation a joyful little dance in his peach perfection before shifting gears—twice. For his on-camera segment, he swapped into a lemon-yellow ensemble, electric and punchy, a reminder that his style palette runs citrus wide.
And for his final look of the day? A chilled-down Colman-core fit: white ribbed tank, perfectly cut jeans, mustard-yellow velvet loafers, and a Valentino shopping bag in black with silver studs. Add in gold and silver jewelry, a classic brown belt, and those forever-sunglasses, and you’ve got a fashion chameleon in his prime.
In a world still aching for joy, Colman Domingo is our sartorial serotonin. With every tailored hem, every slouched tie, every radiant shade, he reminds us that fashion is not just about what you wear—but how you move through the world in it.
Peach, as it turns out, isn’t just a color. It’s a state of mind. And Colman? He’s the whole orchard.
