Timothée Chalamet Revives 'Call Me by Your Name' Hairstyle

Timothée Chalamet has revisited the distinctive hairstyle he wore for his role as Elio Perlman in the 2017 film "Call Me by Your Name." The actor was recently photographed sporting the look, which has been characterized as a "summer of yearning and ’80s hair" by fashion commentators.

The original film, directed by Luca Guadagnino, became a cultural touchstone, and Chalamet's portrayal of Elio earned him critical acclaim. The hairstyle, a youthful and somewhat tousled cut, has since become associated with the character and the film's aesthetic. Chalamet's decision to bring back this particular look for the summer season has drawn attention from fans and fashion observers alike.

"Call Me by Your Name" was released in 2017 and is based on the novel of the same name by André Aciman. The film's narrative focuses on a summer romance in northern Italy. Chalamet's performance as the protagonist Elio was widely praised, marking a significant early role in his career. The film's visual style and soundtrack also contributed to its lasting impact.

Chalamet has since gone on to star in numerous high-profile films, including "Dune" (2021) and "Wonka" (2023). Despite his evolving career and varied roles, the "Call Me by Your Name" hairstyle remains a memorable element of his public image. The resurgence of this style suggests a nostalgic nod to his breakout performance and the enduring appeal of the film.
