Keke Palmer Wears an Elevated Canadian Tuxedo

Keke Palmer put her own spin on the Canadian tuxedo in her June 30 TikTok. The “Nope” star paired a denim shirt that was open at the chest with a pair of formfitting jeans to create an elevated take on the classic denim-on-denim look. Add in her wavy hair and light pink eyeshadow, and the end result was an outfit that managed to be both dramatic and simple.

The actor’s stunning outfit was made even cooler by the dance moves she showed off in her TikTok. Palmer danced and lip-synched to Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice, and Aqua’s “Barbie Girl” remix from the upcoming “Barbie” movie. Midway through her performance, she picked up her son, Leodis Andrellton Jackson, whom she shares with Darius Jackson, and walked toward a backdoor entrance. At the last minute, she turned and mouthed the line, “It’s Barbie, b*tch, if you’re still in doubt.” She captioned her video, “My son told me to stay on yall neck! See you at Broccoli Fest.”

Palmer shared a closer look at her outfit on her Instagram. In a carousel, she revealed a closeup look of her perfectly put-together look, as well as details on the designer. Per her caption, both her top and jeans are from Maison Alaïa. “Draped in @maisonalaia but she swear she not a liar,” she captioned her post.

While Maison Alaïa clothes tend to be pricey, Palmer’s look is easy to re-create on a budget. Jean shirts are easy to find at places like the Gap and Old Navy. If you want to copy the actor’s version of the Canadian tuxedo, simply pair your favorite jeans with a matching denim top. To really make the outfit pop, go for a fitted look and accessorize with a subtle pop of color, like Palmer did with her multicolored manicure.
