We've been saying it for years: You don't need a million bucks to look like a million bucks. But sometimes it takes the right person to say it to you. And Matt Bomer is that person.

The night before the Oscars, the Maestro actor stepped out in a chic satin suit from none other than (drum roll please) Banana Republic. The look is undeniably elevated. The price? Not so much. It's sold as separates, but the full suit will run you just $650, which isn't nothing—but it's a whole lot less than you might expect. On a weekend that's a revolving door for luxury looks, Bomer took the road less traveled. But let's be real: Neal Caffrey has always been defying odds (I see you, OG White Collar fans).

He didn't just stop there. Bomer, with the aid of his stylist Warren Alfie Baker, paired his Reyes suit with a black shirt from brand, and underneath, a mesh tank. It's the mesh tank that really does it for us, giving that pop of unexpected texture that contrasts with the smooth satin to set this look apart. Satin and mesh! Who would have thought? For the time being, you can actually shop the suit and the shirt direct from Banana Republic. And though the tank is sold out, we found a pretty good ringer until it comes back in stock.

Baker and Bomer—and Banana Republic—please accept the thanks of Esquire's own little academy. We may not be handing out Oscars, but this look is certainly award-worthy.
